ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT
NWT RENTAL OFFICE
BUREAU DU RÉGISSEUR DES TNO
NOTE: Assignments may be done when the tenant has a fixed term agreement of six months or more or has been in the
unit for at least six months, and does not plan to come back to the unit. All of the rights and obligations under the tenancy
agreement apply to the new tenant, and the old tenant does not have any obligations. An assignment is not valid unless the
landlord gives written consent. Consent must not be unreasonably withheld. The assignment may be in the approved form
and must be signed by the landlord, the tenant and the new tenant. Where there is a written tenancy agreement it must be
attached to the assignment agreement. If the tenant thinks the landlord is unreasonably refusing to allow an assignment,
he or she can apply to the rental officer, who will make a decision (Residential Tenancies Act sections 22, 23).
