Yet to receive last paycheck (Employment & Labor Law)

Wed, 19 Oct 2005 13:07:00 GMT

What is the name of your state? Illinois
I have a h1b visa. In the contract with my employer it is mentioned 6 week notice from employee side . I'm a full time employee. I gave only 2 week verbal notice. Can this be a problem or is 2 weeks notice sufficient? I get paid monthly. My last day was Sept 5 th. I'm yet to receive my final pay for August and first 5 days of September. My employer says that he will give my pay check if I give the written resignation. Can he hold on to my paycheck bcoz of not receiving the written resignation? Also he wants me to mention in my resignation letter in a way that I did not give him 2 week notice and I'm objecting to this as it is not true and bcoz of this I cannot get the resignation letter sent across. I want my hard earned money. Please address each of my issues and let me know what i should do?
