and call him and say that you talked to vendor ..

is your employment terminated with your employer ?

File a complaint with DOL on form WH4. The DOL will make the employer pay you.I

The employer absolutely has to pay you, no matter what. If they didn't get money from the client is their problem, not yours.

And if you don't get a W2, you can report that to IRS. IRS will then also contact the employer.

On OPT, you can't file a WH4. The WH4 is for filing a complaint about H1 violations.

However, labor law says that you have to get paid for work performed. So, you may be able to file a complaint with your state Department of Labor. Check their website.

You need to discuss your problems with your DSO. They need to be aware of your problems and may be able to obtain legal advice from the university's legal staff to assist you.

There is no way that you've worked and not get paid. Contact the labor department and lodge your complaint about it.
