The tenancy at [Tenancy address suppressed] will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately. DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears$428.57 Filing fee reimbursement$27.00 Total award$455.57 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$455.57

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing via telephone conference.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order and is unlikely to commit any further relevant breach. This is because Work and Income is helping the tenant. Additionally, the tenant stated she would pay $50 a week from 13 November 2024, even if Work and Income declined to cover the rent arrears in a lump sum.
Accordingly, I have granted a conditional termination order.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. Filing fee
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. Suppression
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded in proceedings I must grant the application for suppression.
