If you haven't received it after 6 working days from the day you left, you can file with the state against them. Your local workforce office can give you the paperwork to fill out. Not sure what they'll be called in your state, basically it's the unemployment office.

It depends on what state you live in. In many places you contact the state's attorney general's office and they will tell you where to go from there. You may want to contact the legal aid office in your community as well. Usually however, there is a one week grace period before you can take any action so if you're not paid by Saturday I would start calling.

Contact your local Department of Labor. Companies are usually required to pay you within 3 business days of termination (whether you quit or you were fired) and all current employees must be paid on or before their regular pay day.

For as hard as it is, I'd be patient. You COULD hire a lawyer on a contingency basis (they take a % of what you collect), but why share if you don't have too. Cutting a check some times, takes some red tape. If you are still in the postion a week from now, i'd call a lawyer of take them to small claims court.

Definitely the labour board and prior to that go over the guys head in payroll and call his supervisor first. I am sure the company doesn't want a bad rep. and if he doesn't help call his supervisor and ask for their name first to make sure you know who you have spoken to. Take care Heather

The supervisor/manager/top dog. If it's going through payroll and nothing's happening, you need to move progressively higher up the food chain.

Legally they have up till the 14 to pay you depending on their pay date structure. They must pay you at least twice u a month with equal distance in pay dates. Right now you cant contact anyone.
