Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

This Order records the terms of an agreement reached between the parties and the Tribunal orders suppression of the parties’ names and identifying details.
[the landlord] (“the debt”) as follows:

must pay rent and the debt as follows: a. by before 23 April 2026; b. by a payment of $418.00 being $390.00 for weekly rent and $28.00 for the filing fee, on 15 April 2026.
Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent, rent arrears, and the filing fee.
If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 2 working days of the dates specified in Order 3 or if, within 3 months of the date of this Order the tenant does not pay the weekly rent when due within 5 working days of the due date: a. the tenancy at will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. the balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
If the tenant fails to pay the filing fee within 2 working days of the due date, the filing fee will be payable immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing which was held by videoconference.
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 of the hearing, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

The landlord’s rent records show that rent is more than 21 days in arrears at the date of the hearing.
The tenant has arranged for WINZ to pay the arrears owed to 14 April 2026.
On 15 April he will himself pay the rent due on that date, with the filing fee. He will have the rent due on 22 April and thereafter paid by redirection of his benefit.
The landlord agrees that a conditional termination Order should be made.
I am satisfied the tenant should be given the opportunity to pay the arrears and demonstrate that he can pay the rent when it is due, for a sustained period.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order is enforceable for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Because [The applicant/s] has succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
