New online forms in Nova Scotia aim to simplify the process for tenants to get their security deposits back. The forms will eliminate the need for a hearing and provide a quicker resolution. Landlords and tenants will now fill out separate forms, depending on the situation. If a landlord fails to return the deposit or submit a request within 10 days, the tenant will receive the deposit. These changes aim to make it easier for both parties and speed up the decision-making process.
