What happened

Tenant filed T1 and T2 applications. T1 claimed Landlord collected or retained money illegally. T2 claimed Landlord harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened, interfered with Tenant, and substantially interfered with reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit. T1 application was successful regarding unpaid interest on rent deposit. T2 application was dismissed.

The ruling

The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenant $198.82, which includes $145.82 for interest on the rent deposit from March 1, 2016 to January 31, 2022, and $53.00 for the cost of filing the application. The T2 application was dismissed due to lack of evidence supporting the Tenant's claims of interference.
