this act immediately upon finding that:
(1) the dwelling unit is no longer the principal residence of the tenant, or
(2) the tenant's annual household income exceeds the maximum amount permitted for qualification.
b. Upon presentation to the administrative agency of credible evidence that a tenant is no longer qualified for
protected tenancy status under this act, the administrative agency shall proceed, in accordance with such
regulations and procedures as the department shall adopt and prescribe for use in such cases, to
investigate and make a determination as to the continuance of that status.
c. Upon the termination of the protected tenancy status by the administrative agency, the tenant may be
removed from the dwelling unit pursuant to P.L.1974, c.49 (C.2A:18-61.1 et al.), except that all notice and
other times set forth therein shall be calculated and extend from the date of the expiration or termination of
the protected tenancy period, or the date of the expiration of the last lease entered into with the tenant
during the protected tenancy period, whichever shall be later.
