Yes, tenants can get evicted if they have already moved out. Whether the tenant is there or not, the landlord still has to follow guidelines to legally take possession of the suite. If a tenant leaves without informing the landlord, then the landlord could think the property is abandoned. In the Residential Tenancies Act, Section 79 says that if a landlord thinks their tenant has left the unit, then they can apply to the board for an order terminating the tenancy as long as they’re owed rent.
