You have two years to file but you may not have a claim. Pennsylvania is an employment at will state. That means even if your employer was 100% rong about you violating policy, they can still fire you. If you had a contract that governs the terms of your employment, then the answer might be different. In any event, you'll want to consult with an attorney, give them the full details so they can help you understand your rights and possible remedies.
