Hey Jayden, I went through this exact same situation about 6 months ago! My employer also completely ignored all the UC office calls for weeks. What really helped me was documenting every single interaction - I kept a log of when I called UC, who I spoke with, and what they told me. After about 5 weeks of pending status, I called and asked to speak with a supervisor specifically about the "non-responsive employer delay." The supervisor was actually able to expedite my case for review since they could see the employer had been contacted multiple times with no response. Got my determination letter 3 days later and all my back payments hit my account that same week. Don't give up - the system is slow but it does eventually work in your favor when employers don't cooperate!

I'm dealing with something similar right now - been pending for 3 weeks because my former employer isn't responding to UC's calls either. It's so stressful when you're counting on that money to pay bills! From what I've read in this thread, it sounds like most people eventually get approved when the employer doesn't respond, but the waiting is brutal. I'm going to try some of the suggestions here like calling early morning and asking for a status escalation. Hang in there - sounds like you're doing everything right by filing weekly and staying on top of it!

Glad to see your payment came through on time! For future reference, I've found that Money Network deposits usually hit between midnight and 2am on the pay date, but there can be occasional delays during high-volume periods (like holidays or when lots of claims get processed at once). One tip - if you ever need to access your money before the card deposit hits, you can sometimes do a balance transfer to your personal bank account through the Money Network app, though there might be a small fee. The consistency does get better once you're in the regular payment cycle!

This thread is super helpful! I'm in a similar situation - just got approved for UC benefits and waiting on my first payment to the Money Network card. Based on everyone's experiences here, it sounds like the midnight-2am window is pretty reliable for most people. Really appreciate all the detailed info about the app notifications and the pending deposits feature - definitely going to set that up right away. It's reassuring to hear that while there can be some variation in timing, the system generally works as advertised. Thanks for sharing your experience and glad your payment came through on time!

Wow, this thread is incredibly helpful! I'm bookmarking this for future reference. It's crazy how many people are dealing with the same IDme verification issues with PA UC. The fact that there's a known "post-verification status" flag that gets stuck but they don't warn people about it is just typical government incompetence. Really appreciate everyone sharing their experiences and solutions - especially the Claimyr recommendation. It's sad that we have to pay a third party service just to access benefits we're entitled to, but if it works it works. The PA UC system really needs a complete overhaul!

This is exactly what I needed to see! I've been pulling my hair out for the past week with the same issue after completing IDme verification. Got the "technical error" messages initially, then the username/password loop, and now I'm getting random "session timeout" errors. I tried all the browser troubleshooting steps multiple times with no luck. Reading through everyone's experiences here, it's clear this is a systemic issue with PA UC's backend not properly handling the IDme integration. The fact that so many people are experiencing identical problems after verification really shows how broken their system is. I'm definitely going to try the Claimyr service - at this point I'd rather pay a small fee than waste more weeks trying to get through their impossible phone system. Thanks Paolo for the detailed updates and everyone else for sharing your solutions. This thread is going to save me so much time and stress!

Me too! Finally working properly. Filed mine just now!

still getting errors on my end 😫 gonna try again tonight i guess

Hey, just checking back - did your payment come through yet? Mine hit exactly 3 business days after approval.

Congratulations on getting your payment! This is such a helpful thread for anyone going through the PA UC approval process. It's good to see that the 3 business day timeline is pretty reliable once you're truly approved with no outstanding issues. For future reference for anyone reading this - it sounds like the key things to watch out for are: making sure there are no hidden issues in your determination letters, keeping up with weekly certifications even during approval delays, and having your payment method properly set up. Thanks for updating us on the outcome!
