PA UC direct deposit delay with PNC Bank - payment issued but nothing pending after 4+ days

Direct deposit from PA UC typically takes 2-3 business days after the payment issue date. Since 1/30 was just last Tuesday, I'd give it until tomorrow (Monday) before getting concerned. PNC isn't known for being particularly slow with UC deposits - I have PNC too and usually see funds 2 business days after the payment date. Weekend days don't count as business days, so that might explain some of the delay. If nothing shows up by tomorrow afternoon, then I'd recommend trying to contact UC.

sometims it takes forever i had to wait 5 business days last month with PNC too its annoying but it'll show up

I bank with PNC too and my UC payments are ALWAYS slow compared to my friends with other banks!!! It's so frustrating! My last payment took 4 business days to hit my account while my sister with Wells Fargo got hers in 2 days even though we filed the same day. I think PNC holds the money deliberately to earn interest on it before releasing it to our accounts!!

For PA UC payments issued on 1/27 (Friday) and 1/30 (Tuesday), here's what's likely happening: - Friday payments typically process Monday-Tuesday - Tuesday payments typically process Thursday-Friday Since today is Sunday, I'd wait until Tuesday before getting concerned. If you don't see the payment from the 1/27 issue date by Tuesday, then you should contact UC. Three things to check: 1. Verify your direct deposit information is correct in your UC portal 2. Check that your PNC account is active and able to receive deposits 3. Make sure the payment status says "paid" not just "issued" in your UC portal If all those check out and you still don't have your money by Tuesday, you'll need to contact PA UC to investigate. The problem is getting through to them...

Have you tried calling the UC service center? I was in a similar situation last month - payment issued but nothing in my account after 4 days. Turns out there was a verification flag on my account that was holding things up. I wasted a full week trying to get through on the phone though - constant busy signals and disconnects. I finally used Claimyr (claimyr.com) to get through to a PA UC agent. They connected me with an actual person in about 20 minutes instead of me spending days trying to get through. There's a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 The UC rep was able to see exactly what was happening with my payment and fixed the issue right away. My money was in my account the next day.

@username8 - Yeah, it worked for me. They basically call PA UC for you and then connect you once they get through. Saved me days of frustration.

Just FYI tomorrow is Presidents Day (federal holiday) so banks won't be processing any transactions. So don't expect anything to change with your deposit status until Tuesday at the earliest.

One other thing to check - make sure you're looking at the right PNC account. I once freaked out about a missing deposit only to realize it had gone to my savings account instead of checking because I had entered the wrong account number in the UC portal.

My brother had this happen and it turned out PNC had put a temporary hold on the deposit because it was a large amount and his first UC payment. Might be worth calling PNC directly to ask if there's any pending deposits or holds on your account.

UPDATE: The money just hit my account this morning! Both payments came through at once. Thanks everyone for helping me not panic too much. Guess it just needed that extra time to process through the weekend + holiday.

Great news! For future reference for anyone reading this thread later: PA UC direct deposits typically follow this timeline: • Payment issued date + 2-3 business days = deposit • Holidays and weekends don't count as business days • First payments sometimes take 1-2 days longer • Large backpay amounts (like OP's $3,800) may trigger bank holds Glad it worked out!

So glad your money finally came through! I'm going through the exact same thing right now - payment issued 2/2 and still nothing in my PNC account as of this morning. Your post was really helpful because I was starting to panic thinking something was wrong. Now I know to wait a few more days before calling. The waiting is the worst part when you're relying on these payments to pay rent and bills!

@Keisha Johnson - I was in almost the exact same situation as you! Payment issued on Friday and the anxiety of waiting over the weekend plus a holiday is brutal when you're counting on that money for essentials. Based on everyone's experiences here, it sounds like Tuesday/Wednesday is realistic for your deposit to show up. One thing that helped me was setting up account alerts through PNC so I'd get a text as soon as any deposit hit instead of obsessively checking the app. The waiting really is the hardest part, but it sounds like PNC just processes these a bit slower than some other banks. Fingers crossed your money shows up soon!

I'm dealing with the same anxiety right now! My payment was issued 2/5 and still nothing showing in my PNC account. Reading through everyone's experiences here is honestly such a relief - I was starting to think something was seriously wrong with my claim. It's crazy how much stress the waiting causes when you're depending on these payments. The fact that Maya got both her payments at once after several days gives me hope that mine will show up soon too. I think PNC just processes UC deposits slower than other banks, but at least now I know 3-4 business days seems to be normal for them. Going to try to be patient until Wednesday before I start panicking and making phone calls!

I'm going through this exact same situation right now! Payment issued 2/6 with PNC and still nothing showing up. This thread has been such a lifesaver - I was literally about to call both UC and PNC this morning thinking something was wrong. It's so stressful when you're waiting on money for rent and groceries. Seeing that Maya got both her payments at once after 4+ days and that PNC consistently seems to take 3-4 business days for UC deposits makes me feel so much better. I'm going to wait until Thursday before I start making calls. The anxiety is real when you're depending on these payments! Thanks everyone for sharing your experiences - it really helps to know we're not alone in this waiting game.

I'm in a similar situation right now - payment issued 2/8 with PNC and getting anxious about the wait! Reading through everyone's experiences here has been such a relief though. It's amazing how consistent the 3-4 business day timeline seems to be with PNC for UC deposits. Maya's story really gives me hope since she got both payments at once even after several days of worrying. The stress is so real when you're counting on these payments for rent and bills! I'm going to try to be patient until Friday before calling anyone. It's comforting to know so many others have gone through this same nerve-wracking wait with PNC and it worked out fine. Thanks to everyone for sharing - this thread should be pinned for anyone else dealing with PNC/UC deposit delays!
