Your landlord in Kansas generally must return the balance of your security deposit within 14 days after determining deductions, and no later than 30 days after the tenancy ends and you demand its return. DepositsBack.app helps you take the next step: a state-specific security deposit notice sent by USPS Certified Mail, with tracking that stays attached to your case. This page summarizes general information from Kansas Statutes § 58-2550 and official state sources.
The general deadline is 30 days. Landlords must return the balance of the security deposit within 14 days after determining deductions, and no later than 30 days after the tenancy ends and the tenant demands its return.
You may still be able to send a notice. We show general state information and official sources so you can review your situation and decide your next step.
The Complete Case Bundle includes your notices, USPS Certified Mail history, case summary, evidence checklist, attorney handoff sheet, and official state resources — all in one downloadable ZIP.
If the deposit is not returned within the required period after your demand, your records — DepositsBack.app notice, USPS Certified Mail delivery confirmation, and any response uploaded to your case — document the timeline. Under Kansas Statutes § 58-2550, a landlord who wrongfully withholds may owe the amount due plus damages equal to one and one-half times the amount wrongfully withheld; Kansas small-claims court generally hears disputes up to $4,000. You can review your situation alongside the statute and official state resources, and decide whether to consult a Kansas attorney or proceed with self-help next steps.
