Wage claim form for unpaid wages in Nevada is at the above link.
First, ask the employer for what you are owed. Then, if you do not receive payment, you may file a complaint with the Office of the Labor Commissioner in Las Vegas or Carson City.
Bring copies of check stubs, time records, receipts, the names and addresses of all managers, supervisors, owners, or officers of the employer and any other information that might be helpful in proving your claim, including the names of any witnesses that can testify on your behalf.
Some claims are settled immediately, but others take longer or are set for a hearing to resolve them, assuming they can be resolved. If your employer closes, files bankruptcy, has no liquid assets, or these assets are secured by banks, credit unions, etc., these are factors that may negatively impact your ability to recover wages believed due and owing. In most cases, if the employer pays your claim, You will be notified when the funds are available and you may pick up the check at the DOL office. We will then close the case. If the employer responds to your claim, you will receive a copy of the reply and will have the opportunity to answer the employer's comments. An investigator will review the information with both parties to determine if wages are due. The investigator may assist you and the employer to reach a compromise settlement. If the employer does not pay your claim or respond to your letters of demand, the case will go to an investigator who will try to resolve the issue. A hearing may be held to determine the outcome of your claim. If your claim is determined not to be valid, you will be notified and DOL will close your file. Shirley
