How do I give an N4 for non-payment of rent (Ontario)?
ForLandlordsProperty managers
Who can do this
Landlord, Organization admin, Organization members with Terminate Leases and Prepare Notices.
Where to find it
End lease → Tenant hasn't paid rent.
Steps
- Pick Tenant hasn't paid rent → Continue.
- On Notice details, enter Amount owing and Period covered, and add Rent breakdown rows (From, To, Rent charged, Rent paid). The breakdown totals into Amount owing unless you typed your own.
- Answer Anything about this tenancy that happened outside Kera we should account for? if relevant.
- Continue → Review → Create notice → Sign → Sign notice → sign → save.
- Serve it.
What happens next
The PDF is the LTB's N4 (2026/09). The termination date is 7 days after the tenant is deemed to receive it (hand or email today: today + 7; mail: today + 12). Done notes "Void if the tenant pays the FULL rent owing before you file an L1. A partial payment does NOT void it." The Notices row shows a link to file an L1 (see "How do I track a tribunal filing?").
Good to know
An organization on a property with an owner: the signature block shows Representative, with the signer's name and the organization's details.
