Depends on what state you are in. Some states have specific laws concerning your final paycheck, while others do not. Typically it should be no longer than the regularly scheduled pay day for the last pay period in which you worked.
If you quit, some employers must present you with your last wages within the next regular payday. If you are fired, they must pay you within 48 hours.
You have to be paid your final check within two weeks of you being fired. They cannot hold your check for any reason.
From my knowledge you can apply the day after you are fired and shouls receive some form of payment in about 4-6 weeks.
No. You receive unemployment BECAUSE you have no job.
Each State in the Union has it's own laws. Please check with your state's government or a lawyer.
You can draw unemployment benefits if you were fired or laid off.
Nothing. Being fired generally means that you did something against policy.
You should ask a lawyer all legal questions - don't seek your answers online.
In this kind of economy, you are screwed...
How long does the employer have to pay you after being fired
In the state of MA, you are to receive your final paycheck on the day of your discharge if you were fired. In the case that you quit voluntarily, you would have to wait for the next pay day.
If you are already receiving social security and are fired can you receive unemployment benefits?
To my understanding, if you were fired, you can only receive unemployment if you were not at fault. I was fired today & just filed a claim online. I will receive my 1st check next Wednesday. Just prepare a good excuse as a backup, just in case you're ever taken to a trial.
