My first unemployment payment still has not arrived

I filed my claim 24 weeks ago after being let go as a nurse's aide. It has been a long 24 weeks. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date.

Mine took about 24 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.

Check the messages section of your claim, not just the dashboard. That is where my request for more information was hiding.
