First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check?

I filed my claim 22 weeks ago after being let go as an electrician's helper. It has been a long 22 weeks. 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.

Check the messages section of your claim, not just the dashboard. That is where my request for more information was hiding.
