A: Your employer may request that you and your medical provider complete an accommodation request form.

However, your question is a bit confusing and raises a lot of follow up questions. The purpose of an accommodation is to allow you to perform the essential functions of your job. You should not be removed from a job simply because you requested an accommodation. You should contact an attorney to discuss your matter in further detail.
