The minimum wage has no set time in months or years in which it goes up. For the federal minimum wage to go up, Congress generates a bill that the President has to sign into law in order for the minimum wage increase to become effective.

The minimum wage in SC is definitely going to increase.
if you are on the minimum wage, then yes, your pay should reflect that.
Laws that increase the minimum wage for workers
well, it depends on many factors, and when it will be implemented, however, do remember that when minimum wage is raised, any store that pays below the new minimum wage will have to increase their employees wages too, and to pay for that, they will have to increase their cost of goods, and then those that make minimum wage will not have enough money to buy the now costly goods, and will then want increased minimum wage... do you see a pattern forming here?
The minimum wage in New Jersey is $8.25 an hour, or $2.13 an hour for tipped employees as of January 2014.
North Carolina does not have a scheduled minimum wage increase.
The next scheduled increase occurs on January 1, next year. The amount of the increase is determined by the Consumer Price Index.
No. State laws only regulate the minimum your boss has to pay you. If the minimum wage goes up, it doesn't mean your wage goes up unless you are making below minimum wage. Some union collective agreements have provisions that deal with this.
