Fair Housing Complaint Process

The Fair Housing Complaint Process involves filing a formal report with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) if you believe you've experienced discrimination in housing due to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status, or disability. You can submit a complaint online, by mail, or in person within one year of the alleged discrimination. HUD reviews your complaint, contacting involved parties, and may investigate the claim. If discrimination is confirmed, HUD can seek remedies or solutions, such as changes in policy or compensation. The process aims to ensure fair and equal access to housing for everyone.
