UI payment 3 weeks late - what to do?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Its been almost a month for me. The system is so broken rn 😤

Three weeks is unfortunately pretty normal these days. The unemployment office is swamped with claims. Have you checked your online account for any updates or messages?

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/0UZGuPWGErg

Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.

Okay, listen up fam. I've been through this rodeo before and here's what you need to do: • First, double-check your online account. Make sure all your info is correct and there are no pending tasks or messages. • If everything looks good online, it's time to call. Yes, it sucks, but it's necessary. Call early in the morning, right when they open. • While you're waiting to get through, email your state representative. They can sometimes expedite things. • Document EVERYTHING. Every call, every email, every piece of mail. You might need it later. • If you're really in a bind, look into local food banks or rental assistance programs. Don't wait until you're desperate. • Lastly, don't give up. The system is a mess, but persistence pays off. You got this! 💪

Have you checked if there's a problem with your claim? Sometimes they need additional info and don't tell you 🙄
