First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check?

I filed my claim 3 weeks ago after being let go as a customer-service rep. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording.

When I finally got through, the agent said my employer had responded late. Once that cleared, back pay came in one payment.

Mine took about 3 weeks because of an identity check I did not notice. Look for a message or a letter you may have missed in your online account.
