First unemployment deposit is late, what should I check? - what worked for you?

I filed my claim 19 weeks ago after being let go as a warehouse supervisor. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording. Is there a step I could have missed?

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.
