It depends on the circumstances of your termination.  If an employee was not given notice and was terminated without cause, the employee is entitled to termination pay in lieu of notice.

Employees employed for less than 90 days (about 3 months) are not guaranteed a termination notice or pay in lieu of termination.

Employees who are terminated for just cause (e.g., theft) are not guaranteed a notice of termination nor pay in lieu.
