Determining the Due Date on the Eviction Notice to Tenant
Dating on the Eviction Notice to Tenant
Dating a notice properly is very important. This means that you should pay close attention to the 'ON OR BEFORE' (expiration date) of the notice, or the date by which the tenant must 'Pay or Vacate', generally 3 business days. When counting 3 business days:
- do not count the day the notice is posted or delivered.
- do not count Saturdays, Sundays, legal holidays.
Also, be sure to complete the Certificate of Service completely, including a signature and date.

Determining the Amount due on the Eviction Notice to Tenant
How to Determine the Amount Owed on a 3 Day Notice to Pay or Vacate?
Only the past due undisputed amount of rent should be on the 3 day notice to pay or vacate and the rent amount should match the exact amount of rent per the written or oral agreement.
Do Not Include non-rent items on your 3 Day Notice, such as utilities, late fees, security deposit, or other costs. If there is an unexpired written lease agreement which defines the above 'non-rent' items as 'rent' then this amount may be included in the amount due in the 3 Day Notice.
If the amount due on the 3 Day Notice is determined to be incorrect, the court may dismiss the case to evict.

Tenant Name or Names on an Eviction Notice to Tenant
All adult occupants should be listed on the notice to tenant, that means those who are on the current lease but may have moved out and those who are not on the lease but who have established a tenancy on the property.
The correct spelling and full names of each tenant is very important. Include any other name the tenant or occupant is known by (Ex: a nick name or former or maiden name).
