New York Unemployment: How long after waiting week for first payment?

took exactly 3 business days for me. Make sure u did your weekly claim certification correctly or it'll delay everything

I found a way to actually talk to someone when there were issues. Used claimyr.com - they dial and wait on hold then connect you when someone picks up. Costs $20 but better than waiting forever. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Mine took about a week after the waiting week. The system is mad slow rn cause of all the claims 😤

Here's what you need to know about first payments: - Usually processes in 2-3 business days after waiting week - Direct deposit is faster than debit card - Make sure your banking info is correct - Keep certifying weekly even if first payment hasn't hit - If nothing after 5 business days, something might be wrong. Use claimyr.com to get an agent on the phone Hope this helps! 💯
