Many changes were made to the Residential Tenancies Act on September 1, 2021. More adjudicators have also been hired.
At that time (June 25, 2023,) I expect that a new non-payment of rent application, an L1 or L9 filed today, should now take about 5-6 months from filing for a hearing to be scheduled.
