Example 2: A housing provider operates housing that is legally limited to
 persons with chronic mental illness. The provider may ask applicants for
 information needed to determine if they have a mental disability that would
 qualify them for the housing. However, in this circumstance, the provider may
 not ask applicants if they have other types of physical or mental impairments. If it
 is not readily apparent that an applicant has a chronic mental disability, the
 provider may request reliable information/documentation of the mental disability
 needed to qualify for the housing.
