Waiting 22 weeks on my first unemployment payment - 11 months and counting

I filed my claim 22 weeks ago after being let go as a social media manager. 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 22 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.
