First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check? after 18 years as a call-centre agent

I filed my claim 3 weeks ago after being let go as a call-centre agent. It has been weighing on me all week. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date. What would you check first?

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.
