What happens next

It depends on whether the certification holds up. A certification is the owner's filing, not an inspection, and HPD may audit any certification. A tenant's challenge triggers an audit inspection, where a Housing Inspector rechecks the condition. A violation found not corrected moves to False Certification. Until HPD closes the violation, it counts as open.

What to do

The owner has nothing new to do at this step: the certification is filed and HPD has notified the tenant. Keep proof of the repair on file. If an audit inspection finds the condition still there, the violation moves to False Certification, which carries civil penalties.

If this is on a building you own or manage, you file with HPD directly. We report what the city publishes; we do not file for anyone. Look up your own building.

If it is on your building and you would rather hand it off, ask us. If we know a firm that files it, we'll tell you who.

Does “CIV10 mailed” mean the same thing as CIV14 Mailed?

Not in our copy of HPD's data. It covers violations inspected since August 7, 2023 and uses 21 distinct statuses, and none of them contains “CIV10”. Compliance references describe CIV10 Mailed as the status that follows a tenant's challenge to the certification. With no violation at that status in our data, we cannot say what happens next; check the notice against HPD Online.
