d.Within 30 days of quitting
Explicación
Under Labor Code §202, an employee who quits without at least 72 hours' notice is entitled to final wages within 72 hours of the last day worked. If the employee gives at least 72 hours' notice, the wages are due on the final day of work. The 'immediate' rule applies to terminations under §201, not voluntary quits without notice.
