Filing of applications and service of tenancy applications
30.04 Filing of applications and service of tenancy applications
On the filing of a tenancy application, a registrar must fix a date, time and place for the hearing and mark them on the application.
A copy of a tenancy application must be served personally on the person to whom it is addressed as soon as practicable after the application is filed and not less than 2 days before the date fixed for the hearing.
If it is impracticable to effect personal service of the tenancy application or attempts to effect personal service are unsuccessful:
a copy of the tenancy application may be served by leaving it in a letter-box or other receptacle for mail at the last-known residential or business address of the person to whom it is addressed or by affixing it to a conspicuous part of the premises at that address; and
the applicant must file an affidavit stating the reasons why personal service of the tenancy application was not effected and the manner in which the tenancy application was served.
