The typical timeline is 2-4 months. The N4 gives the tenant 14 days. After that, filing an L1 takes about 2-6 weeks to schedule a hearing. The LTB hearing process adds another 4-8 weeks. MasterKey automates the paperwork steps to minimize delays.
MasterKey generates PDF documents that contain all legally required information for each LTB form type, pre-filled with your tenant and property data. The documents are formatted to match Ontario LTB requirements under the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006.
Ontario law requires the N4 termination date to be at least 14 days after the date the notice is given. MasterKey automatically calculates this from the serve date, whether you trigger it on Day 2 or it auto-generates on Day 3.
As of 2024, the LTB application fee for an L1 is $201. MasterKey includes this in the total amount calculated on the L1 form.
Yes. If the tenant pays all arrears in full before the termination date, the N4 is void and you cannot proceed with an L1. MasterKey tracks this - marking a payment as 'paid' automatically resolves the delinquency event.
MasterKey generates every Ontario LTB form automatically, triggered at the right time in the process.
