Each state has different laws. In some states you can demand your check now. Others, you have to wait until the next payday. I would check with the state where you live to find out what recourse you have.

Yes, it's legal, sometimes the company you work for has to get the payroll from a home office, they have to wait for theirs too.

get advice on this from your job centre or c a b .something sounds amiss.

Check your state web site to see when final wages are due to you for being fired. Each state differs on this. But it is legal for an employer to mail the check to you, as long as it is postmarked by the date it is due.

It's been know to happen. I live in Oklahoma and every job that I've quit has sent my check through the mail. They didn't even let me know about it until after I went up there on payday.
