PA UC Direct Deposit Timing - Won Appeal but No Payment After 4 Days

Congrats on winning your appeal! Direct deposits usually take 2-3 business days AFTER the payment date shows in your portal. Since the 16th was Thursday, and banks don't process on weekends, you're looking at Monday or Tuesday this week most likely. The system puts the payments through in batches, usually overnight, so many people see deposits early morning (like 3-5am). Don't panic yet - this timeline is totally normal for post-appeal payments.

mine took almost a WEEK after winning appeal!!! system is so slow, ughhhh

It depends on your bank too. Some banks like PNC and Wells Fargo process PA UC payments faster than smaller banks or credit unions. Also, first payments after appeals can take a bit longer than regular weekly payments because they go through an additional verification process. If you don't see anything by Wednesday, that's when I'd start calling the UC service center to check if there's an issue. One thing to watch for - make sure your bank account info is correct in the system. I've seen people wait for payments only to discover they had an old account number listed.

my sister had this EXACT problem last month!! payment date showed up but the money took 5 business days to actually hit her account. something about first payments after appeal decisions being flagged for extra review? idk but it did eventually come through

If you do need to call PA UC to check on the status, good luck getting through! I spent 3 days trying before I found Claimyr.com - it got me connected to an actual person in about 15 minutes instead of endless busy signals. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 But honestly, based on my experience with post-appeal payments, I think your money will show up by Tuesday morning. The system always shows payment dates before the money actually moves.

wait u won ur appeal?? im so confuesed about how that works. i have a hearing next week and im FREAKING OUT. did they just call u or what? how long after ur hearing did it take to find out u won??

The whole system is a JOKE. I won my appeal TWO MONTHS AGO and still fighting to get my money. They "approved" it but then found another "issue" to investigate. It's just delay tactics to avoid paying people what they're owed. They're hoping people give up. DON'T GIVE UP. Keep calling and documenting everything. The payment dates are meaningless - I've had FIVE different payment dates come and go with nothing.

Just checking back - did your payment come through today? Monday morning is when most people see their deposits hit after Thursday/Friday payment dates.
