Fair Housing-It’s Your Right

The Fair Housing Act protects people from discrimination when they are renting, buying, or securing financing for any housing. The prohibitions specifically cover discrimination because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability and the presence of children.

Federal law prohibits housing discrimination based on your race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability.

If you have been trying to buy or rent a home or apartment and you believe your civil rights have been violated, you can file your fair housing complaint by clicking the Housing Discrimination Complaint form, and send the form to your local office at the address listed here, or online using the link above.

Your housing discrimination complaint will be reviewed by a fair housing specialist to determine if it alleges acts that might violate the Fair Housing Act. The specialist will contact you for any additional information needed to complete this review. If your complaint involves a possible violation of the Fair Housing Act, the specialist will assist you in filing an official housing discrimination complaint.

Disclaimer: By filing this form it does not mean you have filed a claim with Intermountain Fair Housing Council (IFHC). Please contact IFHC to file a separate claim in addition to filing this report with The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Privacy Statement: The information requested in this form will be used to investigate and process claims of housing discrimination. It may be disclosed to the U.S. Department of Justice for its use in the filing of pattern and practice suits of housing discrimination or the prosecution of the person(s) who committed the discrimination where violence is involved; and to State or local fair housing agencies that administer substantially equivalent fair housing laws for complaint processing. Though disclosure of the information is voluntary, failure to provide some or all of the requested information will result in the delay or denial of help with your housing discrimination complaint.
