Application form: Request for long-term guest status

This form is used by Woodsworth to apply for long-term guest status for non-member residents in your household.

Those who are aged 16-19 do not have to apply for long-term guest status. They should apply for membership though.

The request has two steps:

– Submit the completed application form to the Management. The manager will put the request on an agenda for Board approval

– Sign the Long-Term Guest agreement in the office, witnessed by staff after approval by the Board.

Keep a copy of the completed form and the Long-Term Guest agreement for future reference.

It may take some weeks for the Board to review your application and for staff to notify you of the outcome. (The Board normally meets twice a month.)

Don’t forget – after approval of long-term guest status, all members and the new long-term guest (LTG) must sign the Long-Term Guest agreement. Otherwise the process is not complete. Make an appointment with staff.

For information on long-term guest status, see How guests get long-term guest (LTG) status

 

Long-term Guest Agreement

This agreement is for non-members who live with members in Woodsworth.  The Board must approve long-term guest status.

Once approved by the Board of Directors, the new long-term guest and all members in the household must sign the  Long-Term Guest agreement with the co-op. It must be witnessed by staff on behalf of the co-op.

Management is the contact for long-term guest status.

Requesting long-term guest status:

The LTG  agreement is only signed by approved Long-Term Guests (LTGs), members in their household, and witnessed by Management.

First, members should make a written request to the board of directors to approve their guest as a long-term guest in their unit.

Please use the long-term guest request form (in the Photocopy Room and on the website.) Return it to Management so staff can make sure that the application is on a Board meeting agenda for approval.

The request must be signed by all co-op members in the household. The proposed guest must sign the request as well.

Be sure to get a copy of your completed and witnessed agreement. You will need that if you decide to apply for membership in Woodsworth.
