My first unemployment payment still has not arrived (update)

I was laid off as a copywriter and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. I do not usually post, so bear with me. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

Mine took about 18 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.
