Landlord has to send you written notice upon departure alleging any damages to be deducted from security deposit. The security is for damages not for rental. If not done as per statute ,they lose their right to deduct from security deposit. Not much for you to do but wait and see.

If you have left the unit , the landlord has 15 days to comply with what the damages are.
