Waiting 24 weeks on my first unemployment payment - 13 months and counting

I filed my claim 24 weeks ago after being let go as a paralegal. I do not usually post, so bear with me. 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.
