Getting paid on a federal project

California

I was a subcontractor on a large federal price at the Bakersfield National cemetery. I finished my portion in December 2021 and have not received full payment. I was wondering what my options are to get paid? I’m owed Approx. $145k

Because this is a federal project, there's a lot to unpack here. Some of that will depend on what is actually owed to you, is it retention or contract work? And because it's federal work, you don't have lien rights. But there will be a payment and performance bond for the prime contractor that you can file against. 

And so, your rights may be: 

1. File a breach of contract claim (probably have to go through your subcontract dispute resolution process first) if the person that you're contracted with isn't paying. 

2. File a miller act claim. 

Because federal contracting is different ball game, you'll want not just an experienced construction attorney for this--but one who knows the federal contracting laws.

To add to Mr. Dowsing's comments, note that the Miller Act Bond Claim may require a written notice to be timely served upon the general contractor (commonly called the 90 Day Miller Act Bond Claim Notice) and also note that you must file suit no later than one year from the date you last furnished work or materials for the project (excluding warranty or repairs) to enfoce the bond claim.

To be honest, I'm so tired of various jobs where I don't get paid on time. Do employers really have such problems with money now? I just want my money. Now I decided to try my hand at sports betting, I found an excellent site at <a href="https://www.dimers.com ">this link</a>. This is something like a community for bettors. I expect that in betting I will be able to get money on time.

Many people are doubtful and skeptical about sports betting as a way to make money online, but I think it's in vain, because for me betting has become a great additional source of income, which never hurts. I also found a handy site at this link https://www.sportstips.com/bonus-codes/ to keep up to date with sports schedules, events, news and other useful information.

You can also try sports betting on horse racing by visiting this site . It's where I got most of my wins and one of my most reliable sites.

If you're a freelancer and don't yet have experience with federal contracts, it can be hard to know the process. There are some general rules, but many things are determined by the specific job requirements. I prefer you to check 먹튀사이트 and gain skills in online games easily. For example, if you're working on an IT contract, you might only need to meet certain qualifications in order to qualify for payments. However, if you're working on architecture or building a prototype, you'll likely need more qualifications than just being qualified in IT.
