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

I was laid off as a school bus driver and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. There are 12 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording. 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.
