    You have to give her a written notice that her tenancy is terminated and she must move out within 30 days. (The time could be less depending on your location.) If she doesn't move out at the end of the notice period then you have to file a lawsuit to have her evicted.

    You could try a pay or quit notice. This gives her a shorter amount of time (3-10) days to pay her rent in full or vacate. The drawback here is if she does pay, you have to start the process over again.
