The tenant has an obligation to pay rent on time. No extension of time to pay rent is permitted unless there is a written agreement between the landlord and tenant, or the Residential Tenancy Branch has ordered that the tenant may pay late.
If you happen to fall into arrears or know that you will be unable to make a rental payment, please contact your building manager to discuss the situation.
It is important to note that in the event that you exceed 1 day in arrears, a notice to end the tenancy early for non-payment of rent can be issued regardless of the reason for the non-payment.
After you have paid rent late three times, you will receive a notice of Continuous Late Rent. Once you have received this, the next time you pay late you can receive a One Month Notice to End Tenancy.
