Q: If u work for a company and u don't get paid how long does the company have until your able to sue
A:
Strictly speaking, there's no minimum time limit before suing, but it almost never makes sense to just file suit without taking certain steps first to ensure you've positioned yourself in the best possible manner. Jumping straight to filing a legal action is rarely the best or most efficient way to proceed.
But as is often the case, the answers to these questions can be highly specific and you should reach out to a local labor attorney to discuss your personal circumstances.
