The process of obtaining an ESA letter doesn’t take long, not more than 48 hours. If you are experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression, you may ask your doctor or mental health provider for an ESA letter. This is a prescription letter from a licensed health provider certifying that you suffer from a mental health issue and that an emotional support animal can provide therapeutic benefits.

An ESA letter legally categorizes your pet as an emotional support animal, allowing it to join you on airplanes at no extra charge or to live with you regardless of your landlord’s or management’s policy
