Copy, don't guess
Use the date printed on the notice or the date a payment actually left your account. Keep the original email, envelope or receipt beside the calculation so another person can reproduce it.

Practical tools for Queensland renters
Turn the dates in front of you into something easier to understand. These tools run in your browser and do not save what you enter.
Situation-first help
Not sure which RTA form you need?
Use the situation-first finder to reach a plain-English explanation and the current official form page.
A careful first check
Turn a confusing document into a checkable record.
These tools are designed for the first ten minutes after you receive a notice, rent message or repair response. They help you copy dates, spot missing information and organise evidence. They do not replace the document in front of you or decide whether a legal exception applies.
Check the right rule
Notice periods can depend on the reason, agreement type, service method and current legislation. A result that looks tidy can still be the wrong result if the wrong category was selected.
Save the explanation
Write down the inputs, the result and the question that remains. Attach photographs, ledgers, forms and messages to that timeline instead of relying on memory when a deadline is close.
What this page cannot decide
It cannot determine whether a notice is valid, whether a property meets every standard, whether a charge is reasonable or which remedy is available in your circumstances. For official process information contact the RTA; for individual renter advice contact QSTARS.
Important date planner
Use the date and number of days written on your notice or agreement.
Enter a whole number from 0 to 365. This planner does not add service or postal time.
Rent increase first check
Check two core rules for a Queensland general tenancy: the 12-month interval and usual two months' written notice.
Evidence checklist
Tick what you have, then fill the gaps before memories, messages or photos disappear.
