Waiting 5 weeks on my first unemployment payment (update)

I applied for unemployment in Boston 5 weeks ago and the status page still says pending. It has been a long 5 weeks. I answered every question and uploaded my final pay stub. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?

Mine took about 5 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.

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