New York Unemployment Payment Schedule - When do benefits actually hit your account?

Been waiting on my first unemployment payment. Applied and got approved but nothing in my account yet. Anyone know what days they usually deposit? Also do they wait for the next scheduled deposit day or pay right after approval? Getting anxious watching my bank account.

They usually deposit between monday-wednesday depending on when you certified. For me its always tuesday morning around 6am. Been collecting since january so im pretty familiar with the schedule by now

they typically wait for the next deposit day after ur first certification. dont worry tho, theyll back pay you for any weeks you were eligible 💯

I was stuck waiting forever too until I found this site claimyr.com that helped me get through to someone. Paid $20 but they got me connected to a rep who fixed everything. Here's a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

depends on ur bank too. chime users usually get it monday night, traditional banks tuesday morning. direct deposit is way faster than the debit card btw

Here's the complete breakdown of NY unemployment payments that I've learned from being on UI: Payment Schedule: - Most deposits hit Tuesday morning - Some banks (especially online ones) show it Monday night - Wednesday latest usually First Payment Timeline: - Takes 2-3 weeks typically after approval - Back pay included for eligible weeks - Need to do first certification Tips: - Direct deposit is faster than debit card - Certify on Sunday for fastest payment - If something seems wrong, use claimyr.com to reach an agent - Keep certifying weekly even if payment delayed Hope this helps! Been there done that 🙌
