A: This seems unclear. More information is needed. Are you getting a weekly salary of $250 per week, but required to work over 65 hours per week? If so, then you need to contact the U.S. Department of Labor because this seems like it is a violation of Federal Labor Law. You may also need to find an appropriate labor and/or immigration law attorney if you are unable to afford an attorney.
