An employee must be paid within a certain time after departing thier job; it depends on the specific state in question. However, no jurisdiction allows more than 7 weeks to pass without payment. At this point, you can file a wage claim with your state's department of labor or you can sue your ex-employer in small claims court for all amounts owed you.
