EDD payment timeline: Sunday certification to bank deposit timeframe?

In my experience, when I certify on Sunday morning the payment usually processes overnight and shows as 'paid' in UI Online by Monday morning. Then it takes another business day for the money to actually hit my bank account, so Tuesday is most likely. But it can depend on your bank too - some process ACH transfers faster than others.

It really depends on what time you certified on Sunday and whether there are any flags on your account. If you certified early Sunday morning and have no pending issues, it typically shows as 'paid' in the system by Monday and deposits Tuesday. If you certified later in the day Sunday or have any issues that need manual review, it might take longer. Have you checked your UI Online to see if it shows 'pending' or 'paid' status?

Tuesday for sure. Monday morning it gets processed and Tuesday the money shows up. been like this for me EVERY time for like a year

My payments always take 3-4 days to show up in my account after certifying. EDD might process it quickly but my bank holds it for some reason. So frustrating!!!

If your certification is still showing as 'pending' by tomorrow afternoon, you might want to call EDD to check if there's an issue. Sometimes certifications get flagged for manual review if you reported earnings or answered a question in a way that triggers their system. Getting through to an EDD rep is nearly impossible though with the regular phone line. I had this exact problem last month and finally got through using Claimyr (claimyr.com). They helped me connect with an EDD agent in about 20 minutes instead of calling hundreds of times myself. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km. The agent was able to clear the pending status right away once I explained my situation.

i certified yesterdy too and mine already changed from pending to paid this morning? maybe check again? should def hit ur account by tues at the latest if no problems with ur claim

The timeline also depends on whether you're using the EDD debit card (Money Network) or direct deposit. Money Network payments sometimes appear slightly faster than direct deposit in my experience. And if this is your first payment after switching to direct deposit, it can take a little longer (up to 3 business days).

UPDATE: My payment finally switched from pending to paid this morning! The EDD website now says the payment was issued today (Monday) so hopefully it will be in my account tomorrow morning. Thanks everyone for your help!

That's awesome news! I'm glad your payment finally processed. I'm actually in a similar situation - certified yesterday around 2 PM and mine is still showing pending this morning. Your timeline gives me hope that it should switch to paid by tomorrow. Did you notice any specific time when it changed from pending to paid, or did you just happen to check at the right moment?
