and dates a complaint form.
2. Jurisdictional Review: A dated and signed complaint is reviewed by staff to
determine whether it meets the legal requirements. If the complaint does not meet
jurisdictional requirements, the complainant is notified and the complaint is closed.
3. Notice: Within twenty days of the file date (seven days for housing complaints) a
copy of the complaint is sent certified mail to the respondent
(individual/business/organization accused of discrimination) along with a
questionnaire and document request. A copy of the complaint is also sent to the
