Since you voluntarily quit and provided at least 72 hours notice, your final paycheck was due on your last day of work. If had voluntarily quit and provided less than 72 hours notice, your final paycheck would not have been due no later than 72 hours your notice was given.
Note: All earned and accrued wages that are unpaid vacation time must be paid to the employee. Expenses, however, do not need to be reimbursed until the normal time for reimbursement occurs.
