Won my DEO appeal but unsure what happens next - payment timeline?

congrats on winning! when i won mine last yr it took about 10 days for the money to hit my account. you dont gotta do anything else just keep claiming weeks as normal

Congratulations on winning your appeal! Here's what happens next: DEO has to process the reversed determination, which means they'll release any benefits that were held during the appeal process. You don't need to do anything specific - just continue claiming your weeks as normal. However, I always recommend checking your CONNECT account daily to make sure nothing new appears in your "to-do" items. The payment timeline varies but typically takes 5-14 business days after the favorable determination. Make sure your payment method (direct deposit or Way2Go card) is properly set up in the system. You should see the status change from "appeal" or "adjudication" to "processed" before payment is released. If it's been more than 3 weeks since your favorable determination and you haven't received payment, that's when you should consider calling DEO to check on the status.

I won my appeal last month and STILL haven't seen a penny!! Been calling DEO for 2 weeks straight and can't get through to anyone!!! System is BROKEN beyond belief. They'll probably make you wait forever too.

I had a similar experience back in January. Won my appeal after they incorrectly claimed I was fired for misconduct (I was laid off). After the determination was reversed, I had to wait about 12 days for the payment to process. One thing that helped me was using Claimyr (claimyr.com) to actually get through to a DEO agent on the phone. I was getting nowhere with the regular number, but Claimyr got me connected to an actual person who confirmed my payment was being processed. They have a video showing how it works here: https://youtu.be/UzW_hbUy-ss?si=zORd51jeq1GX5Ldj The agent was able to tell me exactly when to expect payment and confirmed everything was in order. Gave me peace of mind during the waiting period.

I think what everyone here is missing is that OP needs to check if the appeal was for monetary or non-monetary determination. If it was monetary (like wage issues) they need to look at their monetary determination page to see if it's updated. If non-monetary (like disqualification for misconduct etc) then yes just wait for payment. But sometimes they'll update determination but NOT eligibility and those are two different things in the system.

I went through this exact situation in February. After winning my appeal, you need to make sure all weeks that were previously disqualified have been changed to "eligible" in your payment history. Log into CONNECT, go to "View and Maintain Account Information," then "Payment History." If any weeks still show "Disqualified" or "Hold," you might need to contact DEO to have them manually adjust those weeks. In my case, most weeks automatically updated to "Eligible" within 3 days of the determination letter, but two weeks remained on hold. I had to call DEO, and an agent manually fixed those weeks. The money for all weeks hit my account about 5 business days after everything showed "Eligible." Keep checking your CONNECT account daily until you see all weeks changed to "Eligible" or "Processed."

my cosin won appeal last month and they sent mony to her account in like 2 days but she already had the conect card thing setup soooo maybe check that?? idk i havent done unemployent before but thats what she said

Just to add one more important detail - make sure you're still claiming your weeks on schedule even while waiting for the appeal payment. Some people stop claiming because they're waiting for the appeal result, but you need to keep claiming to maintain eligibility for any current and future weeks. The back pay from your appeal is separate from your ongoing claims.
