Waiting 11 weeks on my first unemployment payment after 16 years as a forklift operator

I filed my claim 11 weeks ago after being let go as a forklift operator. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. The page shows my claim as open but no payment date.

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

Check the messages section of your claim, not just the dashboard. That is where my request for more information was hiding.
