I'm dealing with this exact problem right now too! Been on review for a week. Did your payment actually come through like they promised? Mine's been "processing" for 3 days now after they said they fixed it...

This is such a common issue with PA UC right now! I went through something similar last month when my seasonal job recall got delayed due to equipment issues. The system definitely gets confused when there are changes to original recall dates, even when you report them properly. One thing that helped me was calling first thing in the morning (like 8:05 AM) - seems like there's a brief window when it's easier to get through before the lines get completely jammed. Also, when you do get connected, ask the agent to put notes on your account about the recall date change so if this happens again, future agents can see the full story immediately. The good news is these weather-related delays are happening everywhere right now, so UC agents are getting familiar with fixing these flags quickly. Hope your payment comes through soon!

One thing to check - did you possibly list these old agencies on your initial application? Sometimes people list all their jobs from the past couple years, not realizing UC only needs the ones from your base year. If you included them, UC has to verify them even if they're not actually relevant to your current claim. Might be worth calling to clarify if these older employers are even part of your base year calculation.

I've been dealing with Pennsylvania UC for years and "disposition mismatch" is actually pretty common in healthcare, especially with agency work. The system automatically flags ANY discrepancy between what you reported and what employers submit - even if it's something minor like different wording for the same situation. Here's what probably happened: You listed those agencies when filing (which is normal since people aren't sure what to include), so UC has to investigate them even if they're not in your base year. The agencies might have reported you as "end of assignment" while you put "lack of work" or vice versa. Keep filing weekly! I can't stress this enough. Even if it takes 6-8 weeks to resolve, you'll get backpay for every week you certified. And honestly, most of these mismatch cases resolve in the claimant's favor once UC actually investigates instead of just going with whatever the employer initially reported.

UPDATE: Just wanted to let everyone know my payments hit my card this morning! It took exactly 11 calendar days (8 business days) from when I got the referee's decision. Everything came through correctly including all the back weeks. Such a relief! Thanks everyone for your help and info while I was waiting.

Congratulations on winning your appeal! That's such a huge relief after 4 months of fighting. I went through a similar situation last year - won my appeal for a separation issue and was terrified about the timing too since I was drowning in bills. Mine took 10 business days to hit my Money Network card, which felt like forever but was actually pretty reasonable based on what I've seen others experience. The hardest part is that there's really no way to track it once the decision is made - it just shows up one day. Keep checking your UC portal daily like others suggested, and try to hang in there. You've already gotten through the hardest part by winning the appeal!

Update: I just checked my portal again and now it says "Appeal Under Review" instead of "Hearing Not Requested" - progress! Thanks everyone for the help and explanations. I'll update again when I get a determination.

Great to see the progress with your status update! Just wanted to add that when you do get your determination, make sure to check if they also corrected your weekly benefit amount based on the correct wage information. Sometimes they'll approve the appeal for the factual errors but you might need to follow up separately to get your benefit calculation updated to reflect the higher hourly wage ($17.75 vs $14.25). That wage difference could mean significantly more money per week for you.

Second update: Got my financial determination letter today! They approved me for partial benefits. My weekly benefit rate is $320, which means I can earn up to $96 (that 30% partial benefit credit thing someone mentioned) before they start reducing my benefit amount. With my current 20-hour schedule, I should get about $150 in UC benefits each week in addition to my reduced paycheck. I'm still doing the work search requirements even though it feels weird. Thanks everyone for the help and suggestions!

Glad to hear your partial benefits got approved! That's a relief when you're dealing with such a significant hour reduction. One thing I'd add for anyone else reading this - if your employer tries to contest your claim (like saying you voluntarily reduced hours), don't panic. PA unemployment will investigate and you'll have a chance to provide your side of the story. Keep any emails, texts, or written notices about the hour reduction as evidence. Also, if you're union, definitely reach out to your rep - they can sometimes help with the documentation process or even challenge the employer's decision to cut hours in the first place.
