Update: Mine just hit my account at 3:45pm! Much later than usual but at least it came through. Thanks everyone for the reassurance!
my frend got his check in like 5 days, but he lives in pittsburgh so maybe its based on how close u r to harrisburg? idk just a thought
Location within PA shouldn't make a huge difference for mail delivery times. The main factors are when it was actually processed and whether there were any issues with the payment. The PA Treasury is responsible for issuing the physical checks, and there can sometimes be delays between when UC approves the payment and when Treasury issues it.
UPDATE: My check finally arrived today! That's 16 days after they said it was mailed. The postmark on the envelope was actually August 2nd, not July 25th like they told me on the phone. So I guess there was some delay between when they approved it and when it actually went out in the mail. I'm just relieved it's here now. Thanks everyone for your help and advice! I'm definitely switching to direct deposit for all future payments.
anyone else notice how this ALWAYS happens right when your bills are due?? like they KNOW when you need the money the most and thats when they make it impossible to get through. the system is DESIGNED to make people give up on benefits they deserve!!!!
@OP just wondering if you ever got through to someone? My claim just got stuck too and wondering if state rep or claimyr worked better for you?
UPDATE: My claim was finally approved yesterday! It was the state rep that did it. Their office contacted UC last Thursday, and by Monday I got a call from a UC examiner who needed one additional piece of information about my separation. I provided it on the spot, and my claim was approved the next day. 9 weeks total but at least it's resolved now. Hang in there!

When my hearing happened four years ago my employer said they wouldn't attend but then showed up last minute!! Be prepared for that possibility too. The UC system is such a mess sometimes I swear... I had a completely different issue though (quit for health reasons) so maybe not relevant to your case sorry

make SURE ur on time to ur own hearing!!! my roomate was 5 min late to his phone hearing & the ref noted it in the decision against him (ironic since it was about tardiness lol). and DONT talk over the referee or interrupt even if the employer isnt there

•Omg that would be awful! I'm planning to be at least 30 minutes early. Is yours in person or phone? Mine is at the UC office.

•his was phone (during covid) but same principle applies! referee's can be really particular about that stuff especially if ur case involves attendance/tardiness stuff. good luck!!
