It's ridiculous how they constantly change these requirements without properly notifying people! I wish they would just UPDATE THEIR WEBSITE with clear instructions instead of making us all panic and figure it out through trial and error. My claim was under review for the same reason but just got approved today (after 9 days of stress and checking the portal constantly). This is my livelihood they're messing with!!!
I just checked the official PA UC website to make sure I had accurate information. Here's what it says about seasonal workers: "Claimants with a definite recall date within 12 weeks from their last day of work may be exempt from work search requirements." The key word is "may" - they evaluate each case. Make sure your employer has actually registered your recall date with the UC system, not just told you verbally. That might be why some people are having their claims reviewed while others aren't.
I just checked and mine finally came through too! That was stressful. I wish they'd put a notice on the website or something when these delays happen instead of leaving everyone panicking and jamming up the phone lines.
They'll NEVER do that because they don't care about us. If they actually communicated about delays, they might have to ADMIT there are problems with their precious system. I've been dealing with these random delays for almost 2 years and not ONCE have they ever posted any kind of notice. We're just supposed to sit here and stress while they take their sweet time with OUR MONEY.
this happened to me back in january too, always seems to happen when theres bad weather wonder if thats related?? my brother works at a bank and he says sometimes the ACH system gets backed up
Your brother is correct. The ACH (Automated Clearing House) system that processes direct deposits operates in batches. Weather events, high volume processing days, and technical issues can all cause delays. The PA Treasury processes the payments once your UC claim is approved, then it goes through the ACH system before hitting your bank. Delays can happen at any stage, but as long as your payment shows 'issued' in the portal, it's usually just a matter of waiting.
To summarize the correct information: 1. The payment date shown in your portal (5/22) is when the payment is processed by PA UC 2. For Money Network cards, funds typically appear 1 business day after the payment date 3. Most users report seeing deposits in the morning hours 4. You can track deposits by using the Money Network mobile app 5. If your payment doesn't appear within 2 business days of the payment date, you should contact PA UC Hope this helps clarify things!
One more thing to be aware of - once you get your card, you'll need to activate it before you can access your funds. And if you want to transfer the money to your bank account instead of using the card, you can do that through the Money Network mobile app or website. There's usually no fee for ACH transfers to your bank, but it takes 2-3 business days. If you need the money faster, you can withdraw cash at an ATM (there may be fees depending on which ATM you use) or use the card for purchases.

•Update: It just hit my account this morning! So that was about 3 business days after the payment date showed up in the system. Such a relief!
