Z.S.A.Z.S. Tenants IMH Pool XIV LP (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy A. evict Z. S. A. Z. S. (the 'Tenants') because the Tenants did not pay the rent that the Tenants owe. This application was heard by videoconference on May 11, 2023. Only the Landlord’s Representative Moeez Nabi attended the hearing. As of 9:49a.m., the Tenants were not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the LTB. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the Landlord's evidence. Determinations: 1. The Landlord served the Tenants with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non- payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenants 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 Tenants were still in possession of the rental unit. 3. The lawful rent is $1,271.26. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 4. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $41.79. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,271.26 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenants have paid $8,100.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to May 31, 2023 are $150.24. 7.

The Landlord collected a rent deposit of $1,229.18 from the Tenants A. 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 $27.25 is owing to the Tenants for the period 2023 ONLTB 39551 (CanLII) from January 1, 2022 to May 11, 2023. 10. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), A. find that it would not be unfair to postpone the eviction until June 30, 2023 pursuant to subsection 83(1)(b) of the Act. While the Tenants did not attend the hearing, they have made significant payments towards the arrears. Postponing the eviction until June 30, 2023 will give the Tenants time to void the order by paying off all outstanding arrears. It is ordered that: 1. The tenancy between the Landlord A. the Tenants is terminated unless the Tenants voids this order. 2. The Tenants may void this order A. continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlord or to the LTB in trust:  $336.24 if the payment is made on or before May 31, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. OR  $1,607.50 if the payment is made on or before June 30, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 3. The Tenants may also make a motion at the LTB to void this order under section 74(11) of the Act, if the Tenants has paid the full amount owing as ordered plus any additional rent that became due after June 30, 2023 but before the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) enforces the eviction. The Tenants may only make this motion once during the tenancy. 4. If the Tenants do not pay the amount required to void this order the Tenants must move out of the rental unit on or before June 30, 2023. 5. As of the date of the hearing, the amount of the rent deposit A. interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit exceeds the arrears of rent A. the cost of filing the application the Landlord is entitled to by $(1,731.76). See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. However, the Landlord is authorized to deduct from the amount owing to the Tenants $41.79 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting May 12, 2023 until the date the Tenants moves out of the unit. 6. The Landlord or the Tenants shall pay to the other any sum of money that is owed as a result of this order. 7.
