Tell them $USD are accepted in all 50 states.
Wait, what? That doesn't sound totally legal (on their part).
^ don’t use an NYC address though or you’ll pay NYC taxes.
Sounds like they’re trying to get your hours to count towards some sort of tax credit or something like that. Tell them you can’t legally work for them unless they pay you per your agreement and every week it’s late you charge late fees and send them a bill for your work thus far.

This is a lie and an attempt to manipulate you because they assume you can’t or won’t do research or fight back. There are plennnnnty of ways they can pay you. Did you sign a contract?
Load. Of. Bullshit. Name the agency so we can all steer clear. Sorry you are going through this.
Use a friend’s address in New York.
OMD = Omnicom
Omnicom = legal entity in nearly every state
Legal entity = OMD can pay you.
Lawyer up!!!
shady af. also, illegal
This sounds like we're missing a critical piece of info/ context/ details about this whole situation...
How is that legal
Take them to small claims court in whatever state you live in. If you need guidance get a free consult from an attorney
This is some bullshit. Tell them that if they don’t pay you and use your ideas anyway that you will sue them
California freelancers must be paid as employees - talk to your cpa if you’re a S Corp Bc it changes your tax liability. Friendly heads up!
Sorry...it turns out we can only pay people under four foot tall who live in small hillside dwellings. Our hands are tied!
Is the agency fully OMD owned, or a JV? Asking in case I can figure out who it might be. Either way, you’re getting paid.
That's absurd. See if you can speak to someone else in accounts. Hit up the CFO on LinkedIn if you have to.
I mean I doubt you’d trust a stranger but you’re welcome to use my nyc address if you can come pick it up
