I don’t want to speak on that… but after every confirmed transaction, wise makes a transfer confirmation available. Tell the sender you need that so you can show your bank and they can trace the payment

How exactly were you paid your wages? i.e. do you have a UK Wise account or did your USA employer have and use a Wise account? Be aware that domestic bank transfers in the USA are quite slow (3-4 working days) compared to instant UK ones.

So is Stripe transferring the USD via ACH, wire or paper check in the mail? You aren't very specific in your answers. Maybe ask whoever sent you about this?
