Gwendolyn, where is the requirement that a non-monetary default notice must include "the right to an attorney and information regarding programs that may help pay for the attorney"?  I do not find that requirement anywhere in RCW 59.18.650(6)  or in RCW 59.18.640 or in RCW 59.12.040.  I seem to have missed this requirement.  Where is it?

Ken,

As one person had permission to move in, I would treat it like a tenant that allowed unauthorized persons to move in rather than as trespassers.  This would be addressed with a 20-day notice to vacate pursuant to RCW 59.18.650(2)(i) if they share the dwelling with the elderly man.  If they do not vacate, it would be followed by a complaint for unlawful detainer and a motion for order to show cause.

You do need to make sure the 20-day notice includes the right to an attorney and information regarding programs that may help pay for the attorney.  Because it is not a 14-notice for failure to pay rent, you do not need to include the new ERPP notice.
