Unemployment Claim Processed (how much, payment, place)

[Sfayes32]

Hello,

I was hoping someone could provide some insight for me. I filed for unemployment on 5/02/2022 and the “pending” status has changed to “unpaid period processed on 06/10/2022.” Week ending was 05/08/2022. It gives information relating to how much I will be receiving in weekly benefits. My only question is when would I expect to possibly receive my first payment? I’ve been certifying my weekly benefits as recommended. Just unsure on when it would take place, as it has been a month since I applied. Any help would be greatly appreciated. As I cannot get ahold of the department of labor on my concerns or questions answered.

Next week. First one you don’t get paid.

During pandemic first week of not getting benefits was suspended, it has since been reinstated.

You certify as normal once claim is approved, but don't get first payment until second week/after first.

On your benefit window portal if go to history you'll see weeks claimed, paid, and date when payment was issued to your bank or debit card.
