Waiting 15 weeks on my first unemployment payment - what worked for you?

I was laid off as an event coordinator and filed right away, and I have been certifying every week. Any experience at all would help. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

When I finally got through, the agent said my employer had responded late. Once that cleared, back pay came in one payment.
