[Blindtlk] Reasonable Accommodation or Not?

[Justin Williams]

You would want to be with the landlord, or the assistant so they can fill it
out after they've read it ot you.  Better though, would be erica's
suggestion, seeing if they can send it to you electronically.

Yes it is a reasonable accommodation! You might want to ask if they are able
to send you the forms in an accessible format so you can fill them out on a
computer and then mail them back. They can print them out and then you can
come over to the office and sign. Everywhere I have lived I have gotten some
assistance filling out forms and had no problem. I've also donated a
signature guide so I and other residents would have something to help. Many
seniors could probably benefit from it but don't know they exist. If the
manager knows about them they can just rip it out of their desk and say hey,
just sign in the box. :-) It's always been appreciated.
