  • It varies by state. In California you must be paid immediately if your employer is terminating you. If you terminate your own employment you must be paid within three days if you do not give notice or immediately if you gave at least three days notice. There are certain exceptions if you are employed by the government.
  • Typically by the next scheduled payday. If you owe the company money (borrowed funds, loans, etc.) it may be a bit longer, but there should be little delay. Contact your state's Division of Wage and Labor. They'll jump right on it.
  • If you are fired, I believe your employer has to pay you within 24 hours. Again this could be different for other states.
  • I'm pretty sure those laws vary from state to state. I would think he would have to at least pay you at the next pay period where you would have been paid normally.
  • It varies by state. In Maryland, it can be no longer than 90 days from your expected pay cycle. Some state laws (such as this one) favor employers.
