credit the application deposit of all applicants toward the required security deposit.

3. Approval when Lease isn’t yet signed. If you and all co-applicants have not signed the Lease when we approve the Applica- tion, our representative will notify you (or one of you if there are co-applicants) of the approval, sign the Lease when you and all co-applicants have signed, and then credit the application deposit of all applicants toward the required security deposit.

4. If you fail to sign Lease after approval. Unless we authorize otherwise in writing, you and all co-applicants must sign the Lease within 3 days after we give you our approval in person or by telephone or within 5 days after we mail you our approval. If you or any coNot-applicant fails to sign as required yourforApplication will be deemedusewithdrawn, and we may keep the application deposit as liquidated damages, and terminate all further obligations under this Agreement.

5. If you withdraw before approval. If you or any co-applicant withdraws an Application or notifies us that you’ve changed your mind about renting the dwelling unit, we’ll be entitled to retain all application deposits as liquidated damages, and the parties will then have no further obligation to each other.

6. Approval/non-approval. If we do not approve your Application within 7 days after the date we received a completed Applica- tion, your Application will be considered “disapproved.” Notification may be in person or by mail or telephone unless you have requested that notification be by mail. You must not assume approval until you receive actual notice of approval. The 7-day time period may be changed only by separate written agreement.

7. Refund after non-approval. If you or any co-applicant is disapproved or deemed disapproved under Paragraph 6, we’ll refund all application deposits within 30 days of such disapproval. Refund checks may be made payable to all co-applicants and mailed to one applicant.

What You Should Know About This Form

What information is required to complete the TAA Rental Application form?

The TAA Rental Application requires several pieces of personal information. You'll need to provide your full name, current address, driver's license number or government ID number, Social Security number, birthdate, and contact details. Information about your spouse or co-applicants must also be included, including their details if they are applying jointly. Finally, details about your employment, income, credit history, rental history, and any pets or vehicles should be listed.

Do all occupants need to submit a separate application?

Yes, every co-resident and occupant over the age of 18 must submit a separate application form. However, spouses can submit a joint application, which helps streamline the process for couples applying together.

What happens if I have a criminal history?

If you or any occupant listed in your application has a criminal history, it is crucial to disclose this information fully. The application includes specific questions regarding past evictions, bankruptcies, and any charges related to felonies. If applicable, you should provide details such as years, locations, and types of offenses. Full disclosure will help in your approval process.

How long does it take to receive approval for my application?

You will typically receive notification regarding the status of your application within seven days after submitting a completed application. If you do not hear back in this timeframe, your application is considered disapproved. Be sure to avoid assuming approval until you receive actual confirmation.

What are the fees associated with the application process?

There are several fees you should be prepared for. First, there is a nonrefundable application fee which helps cover administrative costs. Additionally, you may be required to pay an application deposit that may apply towards your security deposit, depending on your approval status. It’s important to clarify these fees up front to ensure you're prepared to proceed.

Can I get a refund if my application is not approved?

If your application is disapproved, you will receive a refund of your application deposit within 30 days, unless otherwise specified. The specifics of this policy should be outlined in your application agreement, so make sure to review it carefully.

What do I do if I need to change or withdraw my application?

Once you have submitted your application, you cannot withdraw it or change your mind without consequences. If you decide to withdraw before the leasing contract is signed, you can lose your application deposit. Always consider your commitment before submitting the application.

Will my rental history affect my application?

Your rental history plays a significant role in the application evaluation. Previous evictions, lease breaks without consent, and any rental disputes could impact your approval. Be transparent and provide any context that could help clarify past situations, as it may help your case.

What should I do if I have questions when filling out the form?

If you have questions while completing the TAA Rental Application, don't hesitate to reach out to the property management or leasing office for clarification. They can provide specific guidance and ensure you understand what is needed at each step of the process.

Common mistakes

Completing a rental application form is an essential step in securing a new residence. However, several common mistakes can hinder the process and potentially lead to denial. Awareness of these pitfalls is crucial for applicants.

One frequent mistake is failing to provide accurate personal information. Applicants often neglect to write their full names exactly as they appear on official identification, such as a driver’s license. Incorrect or incomplete entries in the name, birthdate, or Social Security number fields can raise red flags. Ensuring that all personal data is complete and correct is of utmost importance.

Another error involves incomplete address history. Many applicants overlook the requirement to provide details about their current and previous residences. It is crucial to include full addresses, the names of landlords, and contact information. Omitting this information can give the impression of a lack of transparency, which may affect the decision of the management team more critically than anticipated.

Failing to disclose rental or criminal history accurately is yet another significant misstep. Some applicants may hesitate to check boxes related to prior evictions or criminal charges. Honesty is paramount here. Any discrepancies discovered during the background check can result in immediate disqualification from the rental agreement.

Lastly, neglecting to review the application in its entirety before submission can result in errors that could have been easily fixed. Application fees and deposits are essentially nonrefundable, making every mistake costly. Taking the time to read through the form and verify that all sections are completed and accurate will save applicants from unnecessary delays or issues.

Documents used along the form

The TAA Rental Application is a crucial document in the rental process. Along with it, several other forms and documents may be necessary to ensure a smooth application and leasing experience. Below are common documents often required alongside the rental application.

Credit Report Authorization: This document grants permission for the landlord or property manager to obtain a credit report. It helps them assess your financial stability and history of managing debt.
Proof of Income: This may include pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements. Providing proof of income reassures landlords that you can meet monthly rent obligations.
Rental History Verification: Some landlords request a form that allows them to contact previous or current landlords. This document verifies your rental history and helps confirm your reliability as a tenant.
Identification Documents: Government-issued IDs such as a driver’s license or passport may be required. These documents establish your identity and confirm that the information on your rental application is accurate.
Pet Application: If you have a pet, this document provides information about the animal, including breed, weight, and vaccination records. This application helps landlords understand potential risks and responsibilities associated with pet ownership.
Emergency Contact Form: This form records contact information for someone who can be reached in case of an emergency. It provides peace of mind to both you and the landlord in unforeseen situations.

Being prepared with these documents can facilitate the rental application process. It ensures that both you and the landlord have a clear understanding of obligations and expectations, leading to a positive rental experience.

Similar forms

Lease Agreement: Like the TAA Rental Application, a lease agreement details the rental terms, including the tenant's and landlord's obligations. Both documents require personal and financial information from the applicants and outline rules governing the rental property.
Employment Verification Form: This document seeks to confirm a tenant's employment status and income, similar to how the TAA Rental Application requires applicants to provide their current employment details and income. Both collect information to assess financial reliability.
Background Check Authorization Form: This form allows landlords to conduct background checks on potential tenants. The TAA Rental Application includes sections that prompt the applicant to disclose any past eviction or criminal history, serving a similar purpose by screening potential risks.
Credit Application: In a credit application, individuals disclose personal financial information to assess creditworthiness. Similarly, the TAA Rental Application collects details about financial history, including income and past credit issues, to gauge the applicant's reliability as a tenant.

Dos and Don'ts

When completing the TAA Rental Application form, it's essential to approach it thoughtfully. Below is a helpful list detailing what you should and shouldn't do to ensure a successful application process.

Do ensure all names are correctly spelled. Accurate spelling is crucial, particularly for names that will be cross-referenced with your identification.
Do provide complete contact information. This includes phone numbers, email addresses, and current residence details.
Do answer all questions truthfully. Providing accurate information helps avoid future complications and demonstrates integrity.
Do indicate if you have any pets. Clearly state the type and size of any animals, as this may affect your application.
Do sign where required. Remember that your application will not be processed without your signature.

Don’t leave any sections blank. Incomplete applications can lead to delays or rejections.
Don’t provide false information. Misrepresentation can invalidate your application and may lead to legal issues.
Don’t forget to include your social security number. This is often required for background checks.
Don’t assume all co-applicants will have the same signing requirements. Each co-resident should follow the necessary application protocols.

By following these guidelines, you can help ensure your rental application is complete and accurate, leading to a smoother leasing process.

Misconceptions

Understanding the TAA Rental Application form can be challenging, leading to various misconceptions. Here are six common misunderstandings:

Misconception 1: All occupants must submit separate applications.

This is not entirely true. While each co-resident must submit their own application, spouses have the option to submit a joint application.

Misconception 2: People can change or withdraw their applications at any time before approval.

In fact, once an application has been submitted along with the required deposits, applicants cannot withdraw without facing possible financial penalties.

Misconception 3: Providing false information is not a serious issue.

This is a significant error. Providing false information can lead to rejection of the application, retention of fees, and may even involve serious legal consequences.

Misconception 4: The application is considered complete with just a signature.

An application is only deemed complete when all required fields are filled out and the necessary fees are paid. Signing alone does not fulfill the application's requirements.

Misconception 5: Landlords must accept all applications.

Landlords have the right to reject applications based on various factors, including credit history or prior rental issues. Not every submitted application results in approval.

Misconception 6: If an application is not processed within a week, it's automatically disapproved.

While the law requires notification of approval or disapproval within a specific time frame, failure to meet this deadline implies disapproval only if the applicant does not receive any communication.

Key takeaways

Filling out the TAA Rental Application form can be a straightforward process if you keep these key points in mind:

Ensure that each adult occupant submits a separate application. Spouses may submit a joint application.
Provide accurate personal information, including your full name, current address, and driver's license or government ID details.
Include your Social Security number but remember to protect your personal data when sharing this information.
Disclose your employment details, such as your current employer, position, and gross monthly income.
Be honest when answering questions about your rental history, especially concerning any evictions or bankruptcies.
List all vehicles owned or operated by you and your household, including cars and motorcycles.
Please mention any pets, detailing their kind, breed, weight, and age if applicable.
Remember to include an emergency contact who doesn’t live with you, as this is an important safety measure.
Acknowledge that providing false information can lead to rejection of your application and potential legal issues.
After submitting the application, expect a notification regarding your approval status within seven days.

By paying attention to these key takeaways, you can increase your chances of a smooth application process. It’s important to approach the application with honesty and completeness to avoid any complications down the line.
