EDD payment delays today - certification went through but nothing deposited on Money Network card

same here!! certified sunday morning and usually see $$$ by tuesday afternoon. UI online says paid but NOTHING on my card yet 😡

This happened a couple months ago too. Sometimes the bank processing takes an extra day especially around holidays or end of month. Don't panic yet, it'll probably show up tomorrow morning. EDD processes payments in batches and sometimes the later batches get delayed.

Before you panic, check if your payment shows as 'paid' in UI Online under Payment Activity. If it shows 'paid' with a transaction number, your money is on the way but might be delayed 24-48 hours. This has been happening frequently since EDD upgraded their systems in February 2025. A few troubleshooting steps: 1. Verify your Money Network card is still active 2. Check if you have any outstanding ID verification or quarterly form issues 3. Make sure you answered all certification questions correctly If your payment doesn't arrive by Thursday morning, you should definitely contact EDD directly to check if there's a hold on your claim.

I waited 3 WEEKS for a payment in March because of a 'system flag' that nobody told me about! Had to call EDD like 50 times before finally getting through. The regular number is completely useless - always says they're too busy and hangs up on you. I finally used this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me through to a real EDD rep in under 25 minutes. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km The rep was able to see there was a random flag on my account that was holding up payment and they removed it right away. Money was on my card the next day.

hey guys my payment just hit my account like 20 mins ago! check your cards it might be coming thru now

There's actually a pattern to how EDD processes payments. They do them in batches based on the last digit of your SSN, and sometimes the later batches get delayed if there are processing issues. If your UI Online account shows 'paid' status, you don't need to worry - the money is coming, just delayed. The Money Network system can also lag by 4-6 hours from when EDD releases the funds to when they actually appear on your card. Their system updates in cycles, not continuously. What many people don't realize is that Bank of America is no longer handling EDD cards - Money Network is still working out some kinks in their processing system. This is why some weeks are perfectly on time and others have these random delays.

UPDATE: Payment came through around midnight, about 4 hours later than usual. For anyone else experiencing delays, hang tight - looks like they're just running behind this week. Thanks everyone for the help and information!
