Does anyone know how severe a disability needs to be to claim it as a preference, specifically in regards to hearing. Would minor hearing loss be considered, or is it for more serious cases? Thank you in advance for any help.
The disability has to be documented. You have to fill out a form and a medical professional has to sign it. You can get more details in the Marketing Handbook.

I would be able to have a doctor fill out the form, however it is not severe or something I receive disability for.
Yes, but there are only a few units dedicated to the disability preference group, and if this person with a minor disability gets a unit, that means someone with a more serious disability wouldn’t get it.
The handbooks says that having a disability doesn't necessarily means the applicant will be placed in a modified apartment for said disability.
It's about getting preference (being considered before general population regardless of log number), not the particular unit. It seems like this person is trying to take advantage of the system.

I’m not trying to take advantage of the system, I was just curious what the perimeters were. It is not specific and a hearing/vision disability does not have to mean completely blind or deaf.
