New York Unemployment: When does payment status update in system?
Filed my weekly claim yesterday and my payment history still shows pending. Anyone know what time the system updates the payment status? Been getting different answers about 7:30am or later in the day.

Usually updates around 7:30am but sometimes it can take until noon. The system is really weird about updates tbh

If you're tired of checking payment status all day, try claimyr.com to get an agent on the phone. Costs $20 but they stay on hold and connect you when someone picks up. Worked for me when I needed answers about my pending payments. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

my bank usually gets the deposit around 11am even if the website still shows pending 💯

The worst is when it says $0.00 released but then updates later with the right amount... gives me a heart attack every time lol

Been on UI for 3 months now and here's what I've learned about payment processing: - System starts updating around 7:30am - Most payments show as released by noon - Bank deposits usually hit next day - Sometimes takes until evening to update - If nothing by next day, might need to call If you need to reach someone, use claimyr.com. They handle the phone queue and transfer you to an agent when they pick up. Saved me hours of frustration.

Same boat here! Filed yesterday morning and still showing pending. The waiting game is the worst part of this whole process. Thanks for asking this - was wondering the same thing but didn't want to seem impatient 😅

•You're definitely not being impatient! I think we're all constantly refreshing that page lol. From what everyone's saying it sounds like anytime between 7:30am and noon is normal, but sometimes even later. At least we're not alone in the waiting game!

I've been dealing with this for months now and honestly the timing is all over the place. Sometimes it updates at 7:30am sharp, other times I'm checking until like 3pm. What I've noticed is that if you file late Sunday night it might not process until later Monday. Also check your bank account directly - sometimes the money hits before the website even updates the status. The whole system needs a major overhaul tbh 🙄

•This is so true about filing late Sunday! I made that mistake once and didn't see my payment update until like 4pm Monday. Now I always try to file early Sunday morning. The bank thing is good advice too - I've had my deposit show up while the DOL site still said pending. Really wish they'd fix this system, the stress of waiting every week is exhausting 😩
