Late Rent and Non-Payment of Rent in Ontario
by: Tom Karadza

Hi Elizabeth,

The Landlord and Tenant Board in Ontario does an excellent job at helping in these situations.

You really should not need to incur the cost of a lawyer unless there are details here that complicate the situation.

You start by filling out a N4 form and mailing it to your tenant or putting in the mailbox. 14 days later you file an L1 form for a hearing date at the Tenant Board. If they have not paid by that time they will likely get an order to vacate the property.

Why don't you give them a quick call, they're very helpful:

The N4 form and L1 form are on the website along with detailed instructions on how to use them.

Hope that helps!

Tom.
