Release from Your Lease If you have to move before the end of your lease term, you and your landlord must agree to release you from your lease. If you end your lease properly, in accordance with the provisions of your lease, the landlord will remove your name from the lease or will void your lease and would enter into a new lease agreement with the new tenant. This will end your liability for future rent or damages. The landlord will return your security deposit to you, and will collect a new security deposit from the new tenant. This is the safest and clearest arrangement for you.

Please be advised that we will be vacating your property located at (state the address) on the (state the date). Be sure to date this paper and have lines for signatures of everyone on the lease. This should comply with the 30 day notice to vacate a month to month lease. If you are under a years lease, this wont help as you are still bound by that year lease, no matter how many notices you write.
"I live in and {APARTMENT} here in {MANCHESTER, KY} and all of the notice that I have to give my landlady is a 30 day notice."
you didn't say where you live but generally yes you can the ddeposit is just to cover damages that may have happened while you lived there it is not to be use for any unpaid rent they have to go to court for that and you still have to give 30 day notice on a month to month
You can leave at anytime if you forgo your deposit, paycheck or any vacation or back pay. Rental agreements usually have 30/60/90 day notification agreements. If you leave before the end of your lease, even with notice most places will expect you to pay up for the remainder of the lease. If you are in the military, rules may be different, but there is still an expectation that you will pay for the month that you leave and give notice. For work, two weeks' notice was the old standard. However, in these times of layoffs, employees with companies at risk are cutting the notice if they have a job that will start before then.
Most leases become month-to-month even after they expire, so you would still be bound to the notice required in your lease. In California, state law requires that renters give a 30-day notice, doesn't matter what the lease says. You would be responsible for giving a 30-day notice and paying through the 30 days, even if you are not living there. One exception, if they re-lease the apartment before the 30 days is up and someone moves in, then you will only be responsible to pay through the new resident moving in. Landlords can't charge two people rent for the same apartment.
Ask your office staff. They may be offering a settlement fee amount that would allow you to move out with usually only a 30 day notice. I was able to move by paying the equivilant of 2 months rent on the day I turned over my keys. I had to pay rent thru that day and also sign some paperwork in the office but it worked out perfectly. We didn't know we'd buy a house so soon and had 5 months remaining on our lease.
