D.C. Code tit. 42 § 42-3502.22a
Forms to include definition of the term rent charged.
Operative Text
The definition of the term "rent charged" shall be included on all Rental Accommodations Division forms that include the term.
Under D.C. Code § 42-3501.01 et seq. § 42-3502.22a, any official Rental Accommodations Division form that uses the term 'rent charged' must also include its defined meaning. This requirement ensures that the technical definition of 'rent charged' is visible to anyone completing or reviewing those forms, rather than requiring them to look it up separately. The rule applies to the forms themselves, not to individual landlords or tenants directly.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers who complete Rental Accommodations Division forms should be aware that, under D.C. Code § 42-3501.01 et seq. § 42-3502.22a, any form using the term 'rent charged' is required to carry its official definition. Compliant operators generally review Division-issued forms to confirm that the definition appears wherever the term is used before submitting documentation. Staying familiar with current form versions helps ensure that filings reflect the Division's formatting and disclosure requirements.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
D.C. Code § 42-3501.01 et seq. § 42-3502.22a establishes that official Rental Accommodations Division forms must display the definition of 'rent charged' whenever that term appears, giving tenants direct access to its meaning without needing to consult outside sources. If a form you receive from a landlord or the Division omits this definition where the term appears, that may be worth noting when reviewing your rights. Tenant-rights organizations in the District can help explain how the definition of 'rent charged' affects rent-related filings and disputes.
