Moving in with BF/Lease Trouble - Advice Please!

Looking for advice from NY real estate lawyers or those with renting experience!

• Moving in with my boyfriend, and my lease ends March 1.

• Originally planned to extend my lease through June (when his lease ends), but now we’re considering making his current one-bedroom work.

• Have lived in my apartment for 3 years with the same roommate (she’s been here for 5).

• She wants to stay and agreed in January to contact the leasing office to discuss renewal since she’d be the one staying.

• She delayed, so I finally called last week—now the leasing office says they need my credit report, proof of income, etc. even though I provided this when I first moved in and have always paid rent on time.

• Worried this will complicate my ability to extend my portion of the lease.

• If I remove myself from the lease, the agreement states I needed to give 2 months’ written notice, or I forfeit my security deposit.

• Any advice on how to move forward? Feeling a bit panicked—help!
