West Virginia Rules

What West Virginia Renters Need to Know

West Virginia follows the federal Fair Housing Act and its own Fair Housing Act, with the state Human Rights Commission handling complaints. The state act (W. Va. Code 16B-18-5) lets a landlord ask for documentation of the disability-related need from a professional treatment provider, and that documentation is sufficient if it shows the animal will provide disability-related assistance or emotional support.

It depends on the state you move to. Some states, such as California, Louisiana, Montana and Wisconsin, set their own rules on who may sign or how long the provider must know you, so check that state's page before you move. See the full state map.
