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

I filed my claim 4 weeks ago after being let go as a quality inspector. This is my first time dealing with any of this. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date. What would you check first?

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

Mine took about 4 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.
