I consulted for a nonprofit and they have refused to pay me in full for hours worked

r/

Location: Texas, USA

I have outstanding unpaid consulting invoices of over $5000.

They are refusing to pay as they implemented a “policy” after I started working there that it is the responsibility of the contractor to track their remaining PO funds and request a new one as needed. My invoices exceed the amount allotted in the PO by a little over $5000 – the amount they refuse to pay me.

Please advise.

    What do you mean you “started working there” exactly?

    • If you were doing legit IC work, then you’d sue them in small claims court, no lawyer needed.

    • But if you were not doing legit IC work, then you’d file a claim with the TWC and file form SS-8 with the IRS.

    So what was the nature of your work?
