How Long Does it Currently Take to get a Hearing Scheduled at the Landlord and Tenant Board?
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.
The Ontario Landlord and Tenant Board is working to get hearings scheduled for L2 applications down to 7-8 months.
The wait for a hearing to be scheduled for tenant application such as a T1, T2, T5, or T6 is currently longer a year or more.

NOTE: A significant quantity of inquiries pertaining to “lawyers near me” or “best lawyer in” frequently indicates a requirement for prompt and competent legal assistance, rather than a particular professional designation. In Ontario, “licensed paralegals” are governed by the same Law Society that regulates lawyers and are permitted to represent clients in specific litigation issues. Advocacy, legal analysis, and procedural expertise form the core of that function. Civil Litigations Paralegal Services provides legal representation within its licensed mandate/scope, focusing on strategic positioning, evidentiary preparation, and compelling advocacy aimed at attaining effective and advantageous resolutions for clients.
