I am a subcontractor on this a the Amazon Moorpark project. We have not received our November payment and are getting close to 90 days past due. Our customer, Storie & severson has told us they are expecting to be funded by March 1st. This is what we are told but have no guarantee. The general still has to issue us payment once they receive funding. When should be file the intent or the actual lien?
Assuming you did all the preliminary notice stuff, you file the lien within 90 days of the overall project's completion. So you might have some time. Sometimes a lien can help move payment along and other times it can harm a relationship. It's probably worth it to speak with a construction lawyer about your options, which may be contractual too.
