Landlord's Request to Amend Registration Denied

LVT Number: #30447

In 2018, landlord asked the DHCR for a ruling on its request to amend an incorrect registration filed in 2015. Landlord pointed out that the apartment was listed on that year's annual registration as vacant but that a tenant actually moved into the apartment in April 2015 and should have been registered. The DRA ruled against landlord, who appealed and lost. Landlord didn't comply with the DHCR's directions for seeking rent registration amendment. Landlord submitted only a letter and lease agreement.

The DRA ruled against landlord, who appealed and lost. Landlord didn't comply with the DHCR's directions for seeking rent registration amendment. Landlord submitted only a letter and lease agreement. But landlord also was required to submit building/apartment registration forms with the amendments indicated and marked as "amended" covering those years to be amended. Since landlord didn't fully comply with DHCR instructions, its application to amend registrations was properly dismissed.
