Tenant may give N9 to landlord to end the tenancy. For most types of tenancies (including monthly tenancies) the termination date must be at least 60 days after the tenant gives the landlord this notice. Also, the termination date must be the last day of the rental period. For example, if the tenant pays on the first day of each month, the termination date must be the last day of the month. If the tenancy is for a fixed term (for example, a lease for one year), the termination date cannot be earlier than the last date of the fixed term. Exceptions:

 • The termination date must at least 28 days after the tenant gives the landlord this notice if the tenancy is daily or weekly (the tenant pays rent daily or weekly). Also, the termination date must be the last day of the rental period. For example, if the tenant pays rent weekly each Monday, the termination date must be a Sunday. If the tenancy is for a fixed term, the termination date cannot be earlier than the last date of the fixed term.

• The termination date can be earlier than the last day of a fixed term tenancy (but still must be the last day of a rental period) if the tenant is giving this notice because:

• the tenancy agreement was entered into on or after April 30, 2018,

• the landlord was required to use the Residential Tenancy Agreement (Standard Form of Lease) form but did not,

• the tenant demanded in writing that the landlord give them this form, and – more than 21 days have passed since the tenant made their demand, and the landlord has not provided the form, or – the landlord provided the form less than 30 days ago but it was not signed by the tenant.

• A special rule allows less than 60 days’ notice in situations where the tenant would normally be required to give 60 days notice (for example, monthly tenancies). The tenant can give notice for the end of February no later than January 1st and can give notice for the end of March no later than February 1st.
