My first unemployment payment still has not arrived - any advice?

I was laid off as a teaching assistant and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. Any experience at all would help. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

Mine took about 17 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.
