New York Unemployment: How many days until payment arrives after weekly certification?

Finally got approved for unemployment and did my first weekly certification. Anyone know how long it usually takes to see the money hit your account? I've got direct deposit set up with my bank already.

Usually takes 2-3 business days after you certify. I always claim on Sunday and get paid by Wednesday morning. Been like clockwork for me since I started.

If anyone needs to reach them quick, I used claimyr.com to get through. Its $20 but they dial and wait on hold then call you when someone picks up. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Direct deposit is way faster than the debit card. With the card it can take up to 5 business days sometimes

Here's the full breakdown of payment timing for NY unemployment: - Certify Sunday: Usually paid Tuesday night/Wednesday morning - Direct deposit is fastest method - Debit card takes 1-2 extra days - First payment might take a bit longer - Holiday weeks can delay things - If payment takes more than 5 business days, something's wrong - use claimyr.com to get through to an agent Pro tip: Set up text alerts with your bank so you know exactly when it hits
