Hello
I am yet to receive my salary for September and October, 2012. I am contemplating whether to sue my employer or not. (Some blogs suggested writing to DOL. Is that another option?) Any help will be appreciated. I am attaching additional details below:
- My H1B was expiring in Nov 2012. My employer helped file for an extension, under the premium category, in September 2012. USCIS approved the petition and I went to India for stamping but the Embassy rejected my visa stamp after 2 1/2 months. I came back to US in Feb 2013 on my husband's H4.
- I have been with this employer for 6 years now. But he has started behaving erratically since 2012. He is transferring his contracts to another firm and is almost impossible to reach.
- This is not the first time this is happening. I went through something similar last year when when I took some time off and was not paid for the months leading up to my vacation.
- I may or may not refile for an H1B. If I do, I already have a couple of other vendors lined up. I wasn't sure if this is material to the discussion but decided to go for more rather than less.
Thank you kindly for your advice.
Best regards
