My first unemployment payment still has not arrived - first time posting

I filed my claim 24 weeks ago after being let go as an office manager. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

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