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!

Just want to add my experience to this thread since it might help others - I had this exact same issue last month after IDme verification on PA UC. Like others mentioned, I went through the whole cycle: technical errors, then the username/password loop, then session timeouts. What I discovered is that if you try to log in too many times while your account is stuck in that "post-verification status," it can actually make the problem worse by triggering additional security flags. I learned this the hard way after spending 3 days trying different browsers and clearing cache over and over. The key things that worked for me: 1. STOP trying to log in for at least 24 hours once you realize it's the backend flag issue 2. Use Claimyr or somehow get through to a human rep (the automated system can't fix this) 3. When you do talk to a rep, specifically mention "post-verification status flag" - it helps them understand the issue faster Also want to echo what others said - this thread should be required reading for anyone doing IDme verification with PA UC. The amount of people dealing with this shows it's not a rare glitch, it's a systematic problem with their integration. Saved me weeks of frustration reading everyone's experiences here!

This is super helpful, thank you! I'll start tracking everything in a spreadsheet right away. Really appreciate everyone's help explaining all this!

Hey Charity! I went through the exact same confusion when I first filed for PA UC benefits. That "no violation" language is definitely confusing - I actually thought it meant I was disqualified at first too! But everyone here is right - it's actually good news for you. It just means your employer confirmed they didn't fire you for any misconduct or policy violations. Since you were laid off and have that "no violation" status, plus you mentioned getting a financial determination with a weekly benefit amount, you should be all set to receive benefits once you complete your weekly certifications. Just make sure to file those certifications on time every week and keep track of your work search activities like Hazel mentioned. You got this!

Update: I filed my claim yesterday selecting "Lack of Work" as the reason, and it went through without any weird questions about disciplinary issues! I reported my severance as a lump sum payment and noted it covers 6 weeks. The system calculated my weekly benefit rate at $600 and said I'd have approximately a 14-week deduction period before payments would begin. Thank you all for the guidance - you saved me from making mistakes that might have delayed my claim. I'll keep filing weekly claims and documenting my job search activities in the meantime. This process is definitely not intuitive, so I appreciate the help!

Congrats on getting your claim filed successfully! Just wanted to add a few tips from my experience with PA UC after a layoff: 1. Download the PA UC mobile app if you haven't already - it makes filing weekly claims much easier than the website 2. Keep a dedicated folder (physical or digital) with all your UC paperwork, confirmation numbers, and job search records. You never know when you might need them 3. During your deduction period, you might be tempted to skip the weekly filings since you're not getting paid - DON'T! Missing even one week can mess up your whole claim Also, 14 weeks seems like a long deduction period - double check that calculation if you can. Sometimes the system gets it wrong initially. Good luck with the job search!

Just wanted to update - I checked this morning and my 1099-G is now available online in my PA UC account. Looks like they're starting to roll them out. Everyone should check their accounts again.

Great to hear they're finally rolling out! I just checked mine and it's available too. For anyone still waiting, it might be worth clearing your browser cache and trying again - sometimes that helps with the PA UC site not showing updated info right away. Also double-check that you're looking under the right tax year (2024) since the dropdown defaults to the current year sometimes.

update on my situation... examiner finally called today and approved my claim!!! all pending weeks paid at once. took exactly 32 days from initial filing to getting paid. hang in there

I'm going through this exact same situation right now! Filed my claim 4 weeks ago and just got the "assigned to examiner" update 3 days ago. The financial stress is unreal - I've been living off credit cards and my landlord is starting to ask questions. Reading through everyone's experiences here is both helpful and terrifying at the same time. It sounds like the timeline varies wildly, but most people seem to hear back within 1-2 weeks of assignment. I've already updated my voicemail to be super brief and I'm answering every single call, even the obvious spam ones. Has anyone had luck with explaining financial hardship to speed things up? I'm worried about being too pushy but I'm also worried about losing my apartment.
