Legal Question in Employment Law in California

So 2 weeks ago I put in my 2-weeks notice for leaving my job. I was under the impression that I would be paid my final wages on my last day, which was today. However, when I asked my boss about it, he said I am supposed to get paid on the 8th (our payday), and that only if someone quits is when they get paid immediately. However, I researched it online, and from what I gathered, it says that as long as I have at least 72 hours notice of my leaving that I should be paid on my last day. How true is this?

You are completely right. And they owe a waiting penalty of a days pay for every day until they pay you.
