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

I was laid off as a forklift operator and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Is there a step I could have missed?

When I finally got through, the agent said my employer had responded late. Once that cleared, back pay came in one payment.
