Tenant Submitted Incomplete Answer to High-Rent/High-Income Deregulation Application

Landlord applied for high-rent/high-income decontrol of tenant's rent-stabilized apartment. The DRA ruled for landlord, since tenant hadn't provided information in response to the DRA's request for household income verification. Tenant appealed, claiming she had submitted the required information. The DHCR ruled against tenant. Tenant submitted incomplete information and responded after the 60-day deadline for answering landlord's application. Tenant didn't list the names of all persons residing in the apartment as their primary residence, making it impossible for the DHCR to determine whether the household income for the years in question was $250,000 or less.
