Who can use the Notice to End Tenancy form

Check the relevant legislation and local tenancy office guidance before serving the notice to confirm eligibility and deadlines^[2].

Official forms and when to use them

• Notice to End Tenancy — the primary form to give formal written notice to terminate a tenancy; use it when you intend to move out or when a landlord must end a tenancy for a permitted reason (example: you give 30 days' notice to vacate a month-to-month rental).^[1]
• Application to Resolve a Tenancy Dispute — use this form if a notice is disputed or if a party asks the tribunal to decide issues such as unlawful termination, unpaid rent, or required repairs (example: you serve a notice but the tenant contests the reason).^[3]
• Other supporting documents — you may need receipts, photos, or written repair requests to support an application or defence; keep copies for your records and bring them if a tribunal hearing is scheduled.

How to fill and serve the notice

1. Fill in the form clearly: enter correct names, the full rental address, the exact date you want the tenancy to end, and the reason if the form asks for it.
2. Check deadlines: confirm how many days' notice are required for your situation and count calendar days from the day of service to determine the effective termination date.
3. Serve the notice correctly: deliver by hand, registered mail, or other methods allowed by Yukon rules and record the date and method of service.
4. Keep evidence: make copies of the completed form, take photos of delivery, and save any correspondence about the notice.
5. If a dispute follows, apply to the appropriate tribunal within the time allowed and bring your supporting documents and timeline to the hearing.

What happens after the form is served

After service, the other party may accept the notice or challenge it. If a challenge happens or if a landlord applies for termination, a tribunal may schedule a hearing where both sides can present evidence. Keep copies of the notice and all documents; if you need a new place, consider your timing carefully and Find rental homes across Canada on Houseme to preview options while you resolve the matter.
