I would think two weeks is long enough as the decision to make deductions should be made the day you move out or maybe a day or two latter. If the lease says 30 days then at day 36 I would think they breached the lease. The problem is how do you force them to pay. Since they have not notified you of any damages I would think a criminal complaint would be your last resort - theft of the security deposit.
