Depends on the country. In Australia, the deposit is held by the government and the landlord needs to apply to get it, which includes showing receipts for any work they had to do. It goes back to the tenant by default. The system in the USA (where the landlord holds the deposit) doesn’t make a lot of sense as they aren’t really incentivized to return it to the tenant.
If you are on the bottom of the food chain there are basically no good things compared to other developed nations. I would shred my citizenship docs for a better choice.
Bro thinks he is getting his deposit back crying laughing emoji skull emoji

Yes lots of landlords here just steal it as a matter of course. The US is basically a garbage country with a great military.
In Aussie but I’ve been living in the USA for 11 years. There’s definitely some bad things in the US, but there’s also a bunch of good things.
