About all that can happen from the Lessor failing to follow all the requirement for inspections and escrow accounts for security deposits in Georgia is as follows:

(a) A landlord shall not be entitled to retain any portion of a security deposit if the security deposit was not deposited in an escrow account in accordance with Code Section 44-7-31 or a surety bond was not posted in accordance with Code Section 44-7-32 and if the initial and final damage lists required by Code Section 44-7-33 are not made and provided to the tenant.

This has nothing to do with whether you are required to provide a 30 or 60 day notice to terminate your tenancy.

Emphasis mine. The landlord is attempting to retain the security deposit, so it seems that this would apply.

Do you have written confirmation that the landlord accepted and agreed to the thirty days notice?
I have an email from the landlord acknowledging:

-That, on March 2nd, he told me 30 days notice was acceptable
-That, after speaking with the owner of the property and reviewing the lease terms, he changed his mind about 30 days notice being acceptable (he even apologized for reneging on our verbal agreement without informing me)

You were bound by 60 days notice. You owe him a month's rent.

He forfeited the deposit.

How much is the deposit?

How much is one month's rent?
Deposit: $1625. 1 month's rent: $1625.
