For the past 2 months I've had over $100 in commissions that CJ owes me. For some odd reason CJ hasn't paid me yet. When should I expect to get me commission check?
While there could be dozens of reasons for CJ holding your payment, most likely it's for one of the following reasons. Tax papers. If your paperwork isn't up to the legal standards required for US publishers (w9, SSN/ITN) you money will just sit. That happened to me back when CJ first started requiring paperwork. After I missed receiving payment one month I contacted them. They said to fax my paperwork to them and I'll get paid the next month. I faxed and got paid. However, they didn't let me know a problem had existed. Had I not looked into it I don't know how long I would have had to wait. The second reason is much more simple. CJ didn't get paid. And as we all know, if CJ doesn't get paid, you don't. I hope it's just a tax paper thing holding up your payment and not a defunct advertiser.
Thanks for the info! And "no", I never sent them my tax information but yet they still sent me checks in the past. I guess they're enforcing this rule for 2009. Either that or they let you get away with a few paychecks before they enforce it.
