Dispute Summary
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The Tenant lost her rent subsidy in January 2020 and was unable to afford the market rent of $993 per month.
Determinations
- Tenant has not paid full rent from January 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020
- Landlord served valid N4 Notice
- Tenant is in possession of the rental unit
- Monthly rent is $993.00
- Tenant paid $600.00 after the application was filed
Case Study
The Tenant's income from Ontario Works was substantially less than the monthly rent, and the Tenant was unable to afford the rent or make payments towards the arrears. Granting relief to the Tenant would be extremely prejudicial to the Landlord.
