Well, in all honesty you need to have a honest heart to heart with your employer, they may suspend you and meet with management to discuss disciplinary action, they may get their legal team involved withhold the money from your tax refund or flat out terminate you, I don't know where your from it isn't a criminal matter if they knowingly surrendered money to you and they consent and you consented no crime occurred theft is illegal possession, it lacks mutual consent, I wouldn't sweat it but be very honest and you spent the money you own that but if you owe a huge amount then you should call an attorney to intervene with your employer

in order to be a crime they would have to show that you never intended to pay back the money at that point it would be considered theft by deception so much as asking for an extension on repayment normally would constitute evidence of good intention and therefore not be theft by deception. Call your boss work out the payments thank them again

A crime in a broad sense is an act that violates a political or moral law. In the narrow sense, a crime is a violation of the criminal law. For example, most traffic violations or breach of contracts are not crimes in a legal sense.
_______
So no, you can no be convicted of a crime for not paying on time. Debts and unpaid outstanding debts do not constitute criminal behavior.

It all depends on the people or company in which you borrowed it. If I were you I would go immediately to the person(s) you borrowed it from and BE HONEST WITH THEM. Then it will be uthem as to what they do with you. If it were me you would never borrow any money ever again, and I would automatically deduct this amount out of your check or checks with interest until it was all paid back. SHAME ON YOU.

No, your employer needs to know right now when you will repay it. They will work with you...Have the money pulled from your check, if you can't afford to have it all taken at once work it out with your employer. My brother has loaned money this way to employees that are trying to establish themselves. You need to make sure your employer knows your intentions of repayment. Thay are coll with it already as they won't fire you as then they won't get their money, unless thay hold your last check as they can pull it out of that....Go right now and talk to the person who got you the advance...

I don't think that's a crime as long as you intend to make it right. You should be honest with them, though. Apologize and tell them you'll pay it back in 5 days. But only tell them that if you intend to pay it back in 5 days.

This is a civil matter and is not a crime.
By getting a cash advance and agreeing to pay it back you entered into a civil contract. If you refused to pay it back they can take you to small claims court.

Avery stupid thing to do, and you now have a bad rep for paying your debts as far as the people you owe.My advice is to beg for mercy until Jan 3rd.

I don't know about a crime, but I would start looking for a new job.

That doesn't sound so bad. Don't worry about it. They'll probably just forget about you borrowing the money.
