You sign the finiquito to show whether you agree with the terms of your dismissal. Not to show whether you have received the money

They should simply pay it. If they dont then all you can do (I guess) is go through the courts.
You take the signed finiquito contract to INEM when you sign on for your paro

The government wont pay it, the company must.
In any case, make sure you sign the finiquito document, without that, you have no claim against them

Re: what to do with finiquito
If you had a contrato indefinido with your ex-employer then they are legally bound to pay you a certain amount of redundancy. If they are refusing to pay it then go and see a lawyer. I'm not sure how company law works in Spain, but it might be that the director's personal assets could be used to pay creditors (i.e. you).

believe this is also why an SL must have around €3,500 bank assets, although the Govt/Hacienda will want their cut first.

Go to meet with him to sign your papers and if he refuses to pay you your money call the police immediately and have them come to your help.
