What happens next

It depends on whether the certification holds up. A certification is the owner's filing, not an inspection, and HPD can still rule it invalid or false. 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 written to the tenant. Keep proof of the repair on file. If the tenant says the condition is still there, HPD can reinspect, and a certification that does not hold up becomes invalid or false.

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 to be introduced to one firm that files it.

What does CIV14 mailed mean?

HPD mailed the tenant a letter asking whether a repair the owner certified was actually made. It comes right after the owner files a certification of correction, and the violation stays open while HPD waits.

What should a tenant do with a CIV14 letter?

Answer it truthfully. If the condition is still there, say so in the reply or call 311. The owner's certification is a filing, not an inspection, and a tenant's report is how HPD learns a repair did not hold.

Does CIV14 Mailed mean the violation is fixed?

Not on its own. It means the owner filed a certification of correction and HPD mailed the tenant a letter to check it. The violation still counts as open until HPD closes it.

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 when a tenant disputes the repair in reply to the CIV14 letter. With no violation at that status in our data, we cannot say what happens next; check the notice against HPD Online.
