Tenant security deposit log Workbook
Organize tenant security deposit log with AE Tax Advisors’ editable workbook, evidence checklist and CSV export. Prepare the records for review.
When to use this workbook
Use this tenant security deposit log workbook to connect deposit receipt, refund obligation and disposition record before the next review. Keep the three records distinct so a missing item is visible.
Reconcile the lease or manager statement to receipts, expenses and bank activity. Keep costs attached to the correct property and reporting period.
Review checkpoint: A manager’s net remittance is not necessarily the full income and expense picture. Keep gross collections, withheld charges and owner transfers separately visible.

Your tenant security deposit log working record
Enter short notes or document references. Use aliases instead of account numbers or personal identifiers. This worksheet exports the values you enter; it does not send them to AE or determine a filing position. Entries are not saved after you leave or reload.
Information readiness checklist
These checks track information readiness, not tax compliance or eligibility.
0 of 5 information checks marked.
Turn the record into a review handoff
For tenant security deposit log, start the handoff with the connection between deposit receipt and refund obligation. Then identify what disposition record still needs to establish. The exported sheet should make that relationship clear without replacing the original documents.
List the person collecting evidence separately from the professional deciding treatment. A blank field is a request for follow-up, not a zero, an approval or a concluded answer. Keep the supporting documents in your agreed secure record system; this public page accepts no document uploads.
