N6 notice for an illegal act or misrepresented income
The N6 covers an illegal act or business in the rental, and misrepresented income in rent-geared-to-income housing. The notice period depends on the act, and the evidence matters more than usual.

From you
What the paralegal needs
- The rental's address and unit
- Every tenant's full name, as on the lease
- The landlord's legal name, as on title
- A copy of the lease
- What happened, when, and who saw it
- Any police report, charge or occurrence number
No correction period
Unlike a first N5, the N6 doesn't give the tenant a period to void it; the tenant disputes it at the hearing. That puts the weight on evidence, such as police reports, charges or witness statements.
