My employer refuses to accept claims for unpaid wages after 120 days.... when it is truly owed.
Is there a time limit in which an employee can claim unpaid wages? My employer claims that unless I discover the error within 120 days.... I am not entitled to the money. Ooooppppsss... our computer screwed up... but you didn't catch it.... too bad.... have a nice day!!

Statute of Limitations on Unpaid Wage Claims
You have a much as 6 years from the date wages became due to start a lawsuit seeking the payment of those wages. Any employer policy requiring that a claim be made sooner is probably not enforceable under New Yoork Law.
