**Re:** Disputed amounts — [rental address]

On [dates], you [charged / deducted / demanded] the following:

| Date | Description on invoice/ledger | Amount | Source document |
|------|-------------------------------|--------|-----------------|
| | | $ | |

I dispute these amounts because [identify the tenancy term and the specific verified statutory/regulatory/bylaw provision or evidentiary defect]. My position is that [explain classification: rent/deposit/fee/utility/damages/strata/government amount] and [explain why the amount is unauthorized, unproved, incorrectly calculated, procedurally defective, or not presently collectible].

**Important verification:** Current Residential Tenancy Act s. 8 concerns appointment of the director and is not an “illegal charges” provision. Confirm the actual governing provision before citing the Act.

Please provide by [reasonable date]:

1. the contractual and statutory basis for the amount;
2. the originating invoice, bylaw, decision, inspection, or damage evidence;
3. the calculation and payment ledger; and
4. any notice, hearing, consent, or order relied on.

I request [withdrawal of the charge / corrected ledger / repayment of $___ / written response] by [date]. If unresolved, I may seek dispute resolution and the remedies actually available under the verified governing law. Nothing in this letter admits liability or waives any rights.

Sincerely,  
[Name]
