back up buddy, this is TOTALLY wrong. Say June 1, 2012 is rent day
1) Landlord issues a 10 days to resolve the issue after the landlord delivers the unpaid rent paper work
TENANT doesn't have to MOVE AT ALLLLL or do dick squat.
2) IF the landlord wants them to move out, LANDLORD has to FILE for paper work at RTB. Landlord pays 50 bucks.
3) Once approved, a court date is issued usually 3 weeks.
It's usually June 20th by now
4) Evidence has to be PERFECT and submitted IN PERSON by the landlord or Registered mail to both parties.
Court date
5) IF YOU DO WIN, the judge will ISSUE a court date which is usually 7 days - 10 days to move out. (upon the verdict by the "judge")
6) After date occurs, and he still doesn't move out, YOU have to proceed ot the next step. which is another thread.
Cliff notes, TENANT doesn't have to fight shit. It's the Landlord's job to submit paper work if they want the tenant to pay up.
I'm talking about BC by the way.

Um...well, yeah. you don't have to do anything....much like you don't have to pay you taxes either....but it comes back to get ya.
The ONLY time I have to file with the RTB is if you turn into a squatter and don't fucking leave to get an Order of Possession. If the TENANT doesn't want to leave THEY have to file a dispute resolution case. But, I'll tell ya one thing, if you don't pay rent....you don't exactly have a case now, do you?
Here is the form. Read the second box that is in yellow.

Pretty straight forward, no?
