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

I was laid off as a sales associate and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. I worked as a sales associate before this. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording. What would you check first?

Mine took about 25 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.
