You are legally entitled to rent your own apartment. If you are on OW, your worker has the right to approve where you live. It is against the law for a landlord to refuse to rent to you because you are 16 or 17. It is also against the law to refuse to rent to you because you are receiving OW.

Paying rent Rent is due on the actual day listed in the lease — e.g. September 1st. Payment received even a day later, is considered late — e.g. September 2nd.

Rent is considered late if it is not paid in full by the day that it is due. For example, if the rent is due on the first day of the month and it is not paid by 11:59 p.m. on that day, it is considered late as of the second day of the month.

The Alberta Human Rights Act does not prevent a landlord from refusing to rent an apartment to a minor. Therefore, a landlord can discriminate against a young person and not rent to them if the young person is under 18 years.

Lease Types There are two types of lease in Nova Scotia. The first is a fixed-term lease which begins and ends on the dates specified on the lease. There is no automatic renewal clause on a fixed-term lease. A periodic lease can be week-to-week, month-to-month, or year-to-year.

Rent Is Usually Due the First of the Month Most leases and rental agreements call for rent to be paid monthly, in advance, on the first day of the month. However, landlords are normally legally free to establish a different monthly payment date—or even to require that rent be paid weekly or bimonthly.

The move-out date must be the last day of the rental month. NOTE: The last day of the rental month could vary if you moved in mid-month. In this case, the 14th would be the last day of the month.

Landlords in Ontario are within their rights to ask for both first and last month's rent. This is because the first month's deposit is immediately received as a payment, and it is allowed to hold a deposit of up to one month's rent to be used at a later date.
