Summary

When drafting an LTB request for review in Ontario, be concise yet clear. Explain the circumstances leading to the request, specify the outcome of the initial LTB decision, present any new evidence, and state why you disagree with the decision. If you have a lot of detailed information, ensure its organized and easy to follow. An irrational inference refers to conclusions not logically supported by facts. DROs in LTB hearings are neutral third parties who help resolve disputes. Valid reasons for not filing evidence initially include new evidence, incorrect application of law, or procedural errors. Human factors like fear or emotional distress can also be valid reasons. Use professional language to describe dangerous situations. If a landlord lied under oath, it may be grounds for review. When filling out the request, be factual and precise.

improve this in a professional and legal manner "I was late on months of rent due to my bank account being compromised due to fraud. I reported the fraud to TD, the RCMP, the CACF. I submitted screenshots as proof I had done this to the landlord as soon as I could. As soon as someone reports fraud in their bank account, they lose access to view or report on it (I know this because I worked for bank of montreal for 7 years looking for fraud). I had no access to my bank account for a long time period during investigation. I never received a response/file closure of the investigation. TD did not cooperate with my at all/did not care. I opened multiple cases but never received an email that the cases were closed with any resolution. When I was able to access my bank account again, I was flooded with NSF fees as my pay was deposited. I went to TD bank in person over * times, I made over * phone calls to resolve this. During the first hearing the LTB member said they believed me, I did not feel the need for retrieving further evidence after this. (waiting on recording requested from ltb as evidence). The first hearing was adjourned/delayed due to the fact the landlord tried to claim rent I did not owe. The second hearing went completely different. Only the time period since the first hearing was considered not my full tenancy."
"Due to fraudulent activity compromising my bank account, I was unable to pay rent for several months. I promptly reported this to TD Bank, the RCMP, and the CACF, providing my landlord with screenshot evidence of these reports.
During the ensuing investigation, I lost access to my account, inhibiting my ability to make payments or monitor activity. Despite my consistent attempts to resolve the issue through numerous in-person visits and calls to TD, the bank failed to provide a satisfactory resolution or closure to my case. As a result, upon regaining access, I was inundated with NSF fees.
In the initial LTB hearing, my situation was acknowledged, and the case was adjourned due to the landlord's incorrect rent claim. However, the subsequent hearing only considered the period after the first hearing, disregarding my entire tenancy."

In legal terms, obtaining records from fraudulent or closed bank accounts can be challenging due to:

- Operational policies: Banks often have policies guiding the retention and release of records.
- Time lapse: Banks may not keep records indefinitely.
- Fraud investigations: Banks may restrict access during ongoing investigations.
Please consult a legal professional for advice on your specific situation.
