Any advice on how to successfully report tax evasion and get paid out what you’re owed from a company after they let you go?
I was let go last week - my 6 mo anniversary. I was told it was because the company is out of money. In my six months the owner let go 9 employees. There are currently 6 full time - one hired in December and the other in January. The owner also hired two contractors to work set hours in January.
Being a small company and keeping in contact with many of the other employees I know the majority of us had incorrect w2s, a bunch of us had incorrect state taxes and/or health benefits withheld.
On top of that the owner would not pay people their full final check, PTO, commissions or bonuses that were owed to them.
All of these factors impact me. I have calculated I’m owed about $20k.
I am looking for two resolutions:
- to be paid what I’m owed
- to ensure he cannot continue operating his business like this
