My first unemployment payment still has not arrived (update)

I was laid off as a welding apprentice and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. It has been a long 21 weeks. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Is there a step I could have missed?

Mine took about 21 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.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
