Landlord And V.T. Tenant N.M. (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict V.T. (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on February 27, 2023. The Landlord and the Tenant attended the hearing. Determinations: 1. The Landlord served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenant did not void the notice by paying the amount of rent arrears owing by the termination date in the N4 Notice or before the date the application was filed. 2. As of the hearing date, the Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit. 3. The lawful rent is $1,460.00. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 4. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $48.00. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,460.00 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenant has paid $7,100.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to February 28, 2023 are $7,140.00. Order Page: 1 of 4  File Number: LTB-L-041274-22 7. The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 8. There is no last month's rent deposit. Section 83 Considerations 2023 ONLTB 26212 (CanLII) 9. The Tenant acknowledged the arrears and testified that she has struggled to keep up with the rent due to a lack of commission payments from her employer. 10. The Tenant testified that she would be able to pay off the arrears by the end of March. As such, the parties agreed to a standard order. 11. 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 April 1, 2023 pursuant to subsection 83(1)(b) of the Act. It is ordered that: 12. The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenant is terminated unless the Tenant voids this order. 13. The Tenant may void this order and continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlord: 1. $8,786.00 if the payment is made on or before March 31, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. OR 2. $10,246.00 if the payment is made on or before April 1, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 14. The Tenant may also make a motion at the LTB to void this order under section 74(11) of the Act, if the Tenant has paid the full amount owing as ordered plus any additional rent that became due after April 1, 2023 but before the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) enforces the eviction. The Tenant may only make this motion once during the tenancy. 15. 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 April 1, 2023. 16. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $7,162.00. This amount includes rent arrears owing up to the date of the hearing and the cost of filing the application. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 17. The Tenant shall also pay the Landlord compensation of $48.00 per day for the use of the unit starting February 28, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out of the unit.

This will be simple interest calculated from April 2, 2023 at 5.00% annually on the balance outstanding. 19. The Landlord or the Tenant shall pay to the other any sum of money that is owed as a result of this order. 2023 ONLTB 26212 (CanLII) 20. If the unit is not vacated on or before April 1, 2023, then starting April 2, 2023, the Landlord may file this order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the eviction may be enforced. 21. Upon receipt of this order, the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) is directed to give vacant possession of the unit to the Landlord on or after April 2, 2023.
