How long til funds show up on Key Bank card after NY unemployment releases payment?

In my experience the money usually shows up next business day so probably Monday. Key Bank doesn't process weekend deposits from what I've seen. Sometimes it posts by 6am sometime not until the afternoon. Hope thats helpful

After spending WEEKS trying to get through to NY unemployment about my delayed payments, I finally found this service called Claimyr that got me connected to a live agent in less than an hour. Talking to an agent got my funds released immediately and they hit my account the next business day. Best money I ever spent after wasting hours trying to call myself.

For me the funds hit my Key Bank card between 8am-noon the next business day after release from unemployment. Never seen it post on weekend but heard some ppl have had it happen. Seems to depend on when during the day NYSDOL releases it

Try calling Key Bank directly! Their customer service number is on the back of your card. They might be able to tell you exactly when the ACH transfer will post to your account. Sometimes they can see pending deposits before they fully post.

One thing nobody mentioned - check if your release actually says "DIRECT DEPOSIT" or if it says "DEBIT CARD" in your payment history. There's a difference and it affects timing!

It really depends. I've had payments post on Saturday before, specially if they're released early Friday. But more often than not it hits Monday morning. The system is so inconsistant its INFURATING!!!

Pro tip for next time: set up direct deposit to your personal bank account instead of Key Bank card if possible. My credit union usually processes unemployment deposits same day, way faster than that stupid Key Bank card. plus you avoid all the fees 💯

When did your payment history update showing it was released? If it was this morning, there's a chance it'll post tomorrow. If it just updated this afternoon/evening, probably Monday.

The whole unemployment system in NY is a complete disaster. I had to call 347 times before getting through to a human last month. And that dang Key Bank card takes foreeeever to show deposits!

If your payment hit today (Friday) and you absolutely need the $ this weekend, you might consider transferring from KeyBank to cashapp or another faster service once it hits. That's what I do when I'm in a pinch

Heres what I've experienced with Key Bank unemployment timing: Released Monday = On card Tuesday Released Tuesday = On card Wednesday Released Wednesday = On card Thursday Released Thursday = On card Friday Released Friday = On card Monday (occasionally Saturday but rare) The Key Bank system is frustratingly slow compared to regular banks. I've found calling the unemployment office directly when there are delays is the only solution that works. If you have trouble reaching them, use Claimyr.com - they got me through after two weeks of trying to call myself. Also, you can set up account alerts with Key Bank to get a text when deposits hit. That way you're not constantly checking the app/website. And if you need emergency access to cash before Monday, remember some ATMs let you withdraw with just your card number and PIN if you don't have the physical card yet. Hope this helps!

I literally just had this exact thing happen to me last week! My payment was released Friday around noon and it hit my Key Bank card Saturday morning around 10am. So there's definitely hope!

i waited 3 weeks for my first payment and almost got evicted. NY unemployment is such a joke. finally had to break down and call them. they fixed it in 5 minutes but i had to wait on hold for 4 HOURS

Key Bank is THE WORST bank ever for unemployment. Once your money hits, consider transferring it out immediately to your regular bank. I had my card frozen randomly twice for "suspicious activity" which was just me buying groceries 🤬

You should download the Key Bank app if you haven't already. Sometimes deposits show pending there before they actually post to your available balance
