ONTARIO HOME INTEL · LANDLORD & TENANT BOARD
The Landlord and Tenant Board uses separate tenant applications for different remedies. A maintenance problem, tenant-rights issue, rent-reduction claim and alleged bad-faith termination do not use the same application.
Important: This is a navigation guide, not legal advice. Use the current Tribunals Ontario application and instructions and confirm the filing method before submitting anything.

Common pathways on Ontario Home Intel
- For maintenance concerns, start with our repairs and maintenance guide; T6 may be relevant to an LTB application.
- For entry, harassment or other rights issues, review Ontario landlord-entry rules; T2 addresses specified tenant-rights issues.
- For an alleged bad-faith termination, see our bad-faith N12 guide; T5 is the LTB application specifically titled for a landlord notice of termination alleged to have been given in bad faith. The September 21, 2026 Ontario rental-rule changes also affect certain N13 right-of-first-refusal T5 claims, including a deadline of two years after the tenant moves out or six months after renovations finish, whichever is later.
- For assignment or subletting, see Assignment vs Subletting in Ontario; A2 may be relevant.
Filing methods differ
Tribunals Ontario currently lists T1, T2, T5 and T6 as applications that can be filed through the Tribunals Ontario Portal. T3, T4 and T7 have other listed filing methods. Verify the current official instructions before filing.
