3 days nonpayment notice.
Nonpayment requires a 3-day notice to quit after a 9-day grace period for monthly rent. Lease violations generally require a 15-day cure notice.
What this means for you: Connecticut's 9-day grace period on monthly rent is unusual; the notice to quit comes after it.
Your next step: Track the grace period and the 3-day notice carefully.
