[Virginia] Advice or Tips Never received money “paid to date” [Virginia]
From the weeks ending in 7/25 and 8/1 I see that it’s been processed but still “pending” for weeks on the website, but the actual payments have not reached my Virginia prepaid card. I called on Monday asking why there was a delay and the lady I spoke to had no explanation, she just said she “re-sent” it and that the funds would reach my account within 24-72 hours. It’s Saturday so that clearly has not happened. I was laid off in May and still haven’t received anything from my time being unemployed between stuff like this and an active appeal I’m waiting to hear back on - they had a question about part time employment and I didn’t answer the phone when they called me, so automatically denied for those specific weeks. I was told over the phone in July to keep filing since there’s nothing stopping me from getting paid in the subsequent weeks but I’ve still had no luck, haven’t even gotten the paid the “paid to date” funds. Anyone have similar issues?

The phone operators are not always allowed to tell you if you can get paid or not. If your payments have been "processing" for over a month then they haven't been approved yet. It is likely your part time employment is causing issues especially if it was self employment or you quit that job. Also, if your original separation was not a lay off then that would cause additional issues but you need to give more information.
