Tenant's difficult circumstances involving health issues and Landlord holding last month's rent deposit
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears. The tenants were still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing.
Tenant requested the Board exercise its discretion to allow them to remain in possession of the unit.
Tenant (RB) testified that she is currently not working and has applied for ODSP, but has not been approved yet. Tenant also testified that her husband is off work and will be returning to work in the new year, and that they will be receiving large settlement payments in February and March 2024.
