First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check? - 6 weeks in

I was laid off as a sales associate and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. Any experience at all would help. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

Keep certifying every week even while you wait. If they find you eligible, the weeks you certified are the ones that count.
