Late Filing of PAR Not Excused by Tenant's COVID Infection
Tenant complained to the DHCR of rent overcharge. The DRA ruled against tenant, who then filed a PAR to appeal. The DHCR rejected tenant's PAR as untimely. Tenant acknowledged with her filing that the PAR was postmarked on Jan. 28, 2022, which was more than 35 days after the date that the DRA's order was issued. Tenant said that she filed the PAR one day late because she contracted COVID-19 and tested positive for the virus on Jan. 7, 2022.
