Dispute Summary
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant had vacated the rental unit on November 2, 2020, prior to the hearing date.

- Landlord served valid N4 Notice
- Tenant vacated on November 2, 2020
- Tenant was in possession on application date
- Lawful monthly rent was $993.00
- Landlord is not holding last month's rent deposit
- Tenant made no payments since application filed
Case Study
The Board does not have jurisdiction to review eligibility for rent-geared-to-income assistance or the amount of the rent-geared-to-income payable. The Board must accept the Landlord's calculation of the rent.
