How to use this Lease Termination Letter in Utah

Deliver the notice so that you can prove the date — certified mail or hand delivery with a signed receipt. Count the notice period from delivery, not from the date you wrote it, and make the end date land on the last day of a rental period if Utah requires it.

Tenants: give a forwarding address in the letter so the deposit deadline starts running. Landlords: do not accept rent beyond the termination date unless you intend to continue the tenancy.
