Tenant Didn't Answer High-Rent/High-Income Application

LVT Number: #26501

Landlord applied for high-rent/high-income deregulation of tenant’s rent-stabilized apartment in 2011. The DRA ruled for landlord based on tenant’s failure to fully answer the DRA’s notice requesting tax mailing information for 2009 and 2010. Tenant appealed and lost. She claimed that she accidentally mailed her 2012 tax return with her answer to the DRA. She submitted partial copies of her 2009 and 2010 returns with her PAR. But the DRA made five requests to tenant for the missing information before issuing its decision.
