Im currently 14yrs old working at a local computer store, My boss hasn’t paid me in around 23 days while I am supposed to be getting checks every 2 weeks (14 days). The place where I work is being transferred to a new owner in less then a week. Im wondering what I should to so I can secure my paycheck, but now since I refused to come to work for 3 days, and when I went back Monday (June 25th) to see if my check was ready, I was apparently not employed there anymore, and when I tried to contact my boss by calling her she would not answer the phone,I know she was availble when someone else tried calling her and she answered.
Right now, I am looking for any information I can have to guarantee my paycheck, but I was wondering if there was anyway I could report her as well, as she is here on a expired Visa and recently (December) got married in order to stay in the country.
If you need further explaination please Im me, My yahoo S/n is chimeitekisenotu, AIM Is kirbykirbykirby3 and Email/

She probably thinks you won't do anything because you're only 14.
I'd have your parents contact a lawyer. For something like this, they may even do it for free. I think all they would need is a letter from the lawyer and you'll get your paycheck. Even at minimum wage, and lets say it was for 80 hours, that's still a nice chunk o' change for a 14 year old. I'd be pissed too.

Consult an attorney .
File a claim with the Dept. of Labor
