The consequences of a tenant-cooperator's failure to submit annual income information are twofold. First, a landlord may charge surcharges as added rent until the affidavits are submitted as a means of compelling compliance (see 9 NYCRR § 1727-2.6 [a]). Second, and independent from the right to impose surcharges, DHCR regulations allow for eviction following service of a termination notice where a cooperator "refuses to divulge his or her true income or that of other persons residing in the apartment" (9 NYCRR §§ 1727-5.3[a)][6][ii]). However, in contrast to certain grounds for eviction, the failure to submit income affidavits is curable conduct, requiring a notice to cure prior to termination of the tenancy "setting forth with specificity the violation alleged and stating that the violation must be cured within 10 days or eviction proceedings may be commenced" (9 NYCRR §§ 1727-5.3[b][1]).
