PA UC Money Network card delay - 2 weeks and still waiting - normal timeframe?

Mine took almost 3 weeks to come last month so ur probably fine

The typical timeframe for receiving the Money Network card is 7-10 business days after your first payment is processed. However, with current mail delays, many people are seeing 3-4 weeks for delivery. Keep in mind that the payments are already loaded onto your account even if you don't have the physical card yet. If it's been more than 21 days since your first payment was approved, you should call Money Network directly at 888-233-5916 to check the status or potentially request a replacement. The PA UC office unfortunately can't track the card delivery - that's handled by the bank that issues the cards.

My brother waited 5 weeks for his card and almost got evicted!! The system is COMPLETELY BROKEN and they don't care that people are suffering without access to their benefits. I'd call every single day until someone helps you!!

Honestly the most frustrating part of UC is actually getting through to someone when you have a problem. I tried for 2 weeks to reach someone about my card (was missing for a month!) and kept getting busy signals. I finally used Claimyr (claimyr.com) and got through to a PA UC agent in about 15 minutes. They confirmed my address was correct and had Money Network send a replacement card. Check out their video to see how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 Saved me so much stress since I was about to miss my car payment.

Just to add some practical advice - while you're waiting for your card, you can prepare by creating your Money Network account online. Once your card arrives, you'll be able to immediately link it and set up direct deposit to your personal bank account for future payments if you prefer that over using the card. Also, keep track of exactly when your first payment was approved (check your dashboard) as that starts the official clock for the card delivery window. As others mentioned, 21 days is when you should take action if the card hasn't arrived.

check ur mailbox carefully btw, the envelope is plain white and doesnt say unemployment or anything. i almost threw mine away thinking it was junk mail lol

Is your address in the system correct? When I first applied for benefits I accidentally put my old apartment number and the card got sent back. Had to verify my address and then wait another 2 weeks for a new card. Might be worth double-checking your info in the portal.

Just got my card yesterday after waiting almost 4 weeks! The system is so slow right now but at least the money is already there when the card finally arrives. Hang in there!

UPDATE: My card finally arrived today! Exactly 17 days after my first payment was approved. The envelope really is plain white with just a return address from Tennessee - I almost missed it! Thanks everyone for your help and reassurance.
