Nunavut rent increase notice planning tool

Compare the three-month notice and twelve-month rent-history clocks.

Check the current Nunavut rules before using these datesWhy?

The official rental law copy we reviewed was current to May 31, 2024. We have not confirmed whether any later changes affect these dates or amounts. Check with the Nunavut Rental Office before relying on a result.

Check your dates

This gives you a starting date. Your actual deadline may be different.

Record the premises history

Use the date of the last effective rent increase, or first rent charged if the premises were newly rented, not only the present tenant’s first day.

Notice service

Note the actual date of written service and preserve proof. The notice must precede the effective increase by at least three months.

Other rules

Public housing, staff accommodation and other specialized housing arrangements can raise additional questions.

Section 47(6) excludes subsidized public housing from the section 47 rent-increase regime. The displayed three-month / 12-month benchmark must not be used to decide the legal notice period for that category.
