Six years. You may also want to read NY Labor Law sections 191-a, 191-b, and 191-c.

My colleague is correct. 6 years is the statute of limitation for such matters. Also be advised that under certain circumstances you may be entitled to attorney fees as a matter of law in cases involving sales commissions. So, if you have a dispute with your employer, you should consider retaining an attorney.

Feel free to contact my office if you have further questions.
