First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check?

I applied for unemployment in Boston 6 weeks ago and the status page still says pending. Thank you in advance. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. 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.

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