Return security deposit with itemized statement within 21 days of move-out. Connecticut landlords must deliver the full security deposit plus accrued interest, or the balance plus interest with a written statement itemizing each deduction, within 21 days after the tenancy ends or 15 days after receiving the tenant's written forwarding address, whichever is later, and missing the deadline can make the landlord liable for twice the full deposit, so send it by certified mail with a return receipt to prove timely delivery.
