In Minnesota, what does the law say about security deposit, return deadline?
Answered for: Minnesota
Every landlord shall: (1) within three weeks after termination of the tenancy … and after receipt of the tenant's mailing address or delivery instructions, return the deposit to the tenant, with interest thereon as provided in subdivision 2, or furnish to the tenant a written statement showing the specific reason for the withholding of the deposit or any portion thereof.
This is Minnesota law on security deposit, return deadline, in the words of the statute itself, read at the official source on 2026-08-21.
