My first unemployment payment still has not arrived - 11 months and counting

I filed my claim 19 weeks ago after being let go as an administrative assistant. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Is there a step I could have missed?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
