Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $30.45. This amount is calculated as follows: $926.16 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenant has paid $6,842.64 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to February 28, 2023 are $884.04. 7. The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 8. The Landlord collected a rent deposit of $899.00 from the Tenant and this deposit is still being held by the Landlord. The rent deposit can only be applied to the last rental period of the tenancy if the tenancy is terminated. 9. Interest on the rent deposit, in the amount of $55.18 is owing to the Tenant for the period from October 1, 2018 to February 14, 2023. 10. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), and find that it would not be unfair to postpone the eviction until March 31, 2023 pursuant to subsection 83(1)(b) of the Act. The Landlord’s representative was amendable to extending the eviction date to March 31, 2023 in order to provide the Tenant with extra time to pay off the outstanding rental arrears. It is ordered that: 1. The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenant is terminated unless the Tenant voids this order. 2. The Tenant may void this order and continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlord or to the LTB in trust: • $1,070.04 if the payment is made on or before February 28, 2023.

If the Tenant does not pay the amount required to void this order the Tenant must move out of the rental unit on or before March 5, 2023 2023 ONLTB 21685 (CanLII) 5. As of the date of the hearing, the amount of the rent deposit and interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit exceeds the arrears of rent, compensation and the cost of filing the application the Landlord is entitled to by $384.00. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. However, the Landlord is authorized to deduct from the amount owing to the Tenant $30.45 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting February 15, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out of the unit. 6. The Landlord or the Tenant shall pay to the other any sum of money that is owed as a result of this order. 7.
