ONTARIO HOME INTEL · TENANT SAFETY RESOURCE
The Landlord and Tenant Board’s N15 is titled Tenant’s Notice to End my Tenancy Because of Fear of Sexual or Domestic Violence and Abuse. It is a specialized tenant notice intended for circumstances covered by Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act.
N15 is not the same as a regular N9
An N9 is the general tenant notice to end a tenancy where its requirements are met. N15 is a distinct statutory pathway for qualifying circumstances involving fear of sexual or domestic violence and abuse.
There is also a supporting statement
Tribunals Ontario currently lists both the N15 and a Tenant’s Statement About Sexual or Domestic Violence and Abuse. Because this process is sensitive and has specific legal and privacy requirements, use the current official documents and instructions rather than a copied or saved third-party version.
Before using an N15
- Get the current N15 and supporting material directly from Tribunals Ontario.
- Read the current requirements carefully, including who can use the process and what supporting documentation is required.
- Consider obtaining legal assistance if you are uncertain about the process.
- Avoid sharing sensitive personal information with websites or people who do not need it.
