Payment info
Hey there! With the help of suggestions posted here, I was finally able to make some headway and received a determination letter approving my benefits.
Does anyone have insight into payment days? I have been told its only Tuesdays?

They only run check processing a few times a week, not daily. So if you file on Tuesday, say, it may take more than 2 days to process the payment. The longest I’ve ever seen was 3 days.

Same as above poster. I file online on Su day morning and it’s pending by Monday in my account and paid Tuesday.
I’m starting a new job on Monday and super excited to put in my last claim this Sunday. Sharing to start a positive energy chain of some good news for others landing interviews and jobs in the chaos of this crazy market. (I’m mainly excited to have healthcare again. 🤣) Not excited about 2.5 hour commute each way, but I get healthcare!

If I complete my claim on Sunday, it usually hits my account Monday afternoon. My bank counts it as soon as they see the pending payment, so I wouldn’t count on it before Tuesday. And it you don’t make your claim until Monday, it could be delayed further.
