Official government forms and source directory

6 government entries

Linked materials remain hosted by the government. This directory does not reproduce official PDF forms.

Which application?

A tenant applying for repairs, a deposit return or relief from a landlord should use the updated Application to a Rental Officer — Tenant. A landlord applying for rent arrears or an order uses the separate landlord form.

Supporting documents

The government provides inspection records, assignment and subletting agreements, abandoned-property documents and policies on expedited hearings, affidavits of service and useful-life assumptions.

Check editions

The landlord application was updated March 2026 and the tenant application May 2026. Check that the edition you download remains the current one.

Current submission method

The March/May 2026 landlord and tenant forms instruct applicants to send an electronic application using the NWT government secure file-drop, or file by the approved postal or in-person routes. Do not assume sending ordinary email attachments constitutes filing; confirm the official instructions.
