Actual LTB Hearing Wait Times 2026
Updated on February 8, 2026
Evictions in Ontario typically involve two main waiting periods: the time until your hearing and the time for an order to be issued after the hearing. Below, you can see estimates for both. The estimate is based on L1 applications (non-payment of rent) only.
Step 1: How soon will a LTB hearing take place in 2026?
Based on recent non-payment of rent (N4 notice and L1 applications) not resolved in mediation and when tenant has not vacated before hearing.

Hearing Wait Times
As of December 18, 2025, 80% of cases are heard between 2.6 and 10.3 months. Scheduled hearings can be adjourned unexpectedly, which may extend wait time.
How is this calculated?
The wait times are observed from recent orders from Landlord and Tenant Board. It uses the rent arrears at hearing to estimate how many months have passed between when the rent became past due and the actual hearing date.

Step 2: How soon does LTB issue an eviction order after a hearing?
Once a hearing took place, an adjudicator has the sole discretion on how long they take to issue an order and how soon the tenancy is terminated if rent arrears are not paid. This table shows the median time for both of these periods. There is no explicit deadline for the first period. For the second period, 11 days is the default if no relief is granted.

- We use the median as a representation for the metrics
- We update the time tracker as soon as we get more orders
