My first unemployment payment still has not arrived - what worked for you?

I filed my claim 5 weeks ago after being let go as a nurse's aide. It has been weighing on me all week. 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 5 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.
