In Indiana, the landlord has 45 days to return your security deposit or send an itemized list of deductions (IC 32-31-3-9, 3-12, 3-13, 3-14, 3-15, 3-16). Enter your move-out date to get the exact date.
Indiana: deposit (or itemized deductions) due within 45 days.
Add your move-out date to see the deadline.
- Counted from when the lease ends and you hand back possession. The landlord isn't liable for missing the deadline until you give a mailing address in writing, so send it when you move out.
- If the landlord misses the 45 days, they are treated as agreeing no damages are owed and must return the full deposit, plus your attorney's fees and court costs if you sue.
