PA UC direct deposit to Chime showing delayed today - anyone else?

Same boat! My UC payment usually hits Chime around 9:30am but nothing yet. Already filed my weekly claim on Sunday like always. PA website still shows 'payment issued' but nothing in my account.

mine came thru at 1130 to chime

I don't use Chime but I've had this happen with my credit union before. Sometimes the ACH transfers get held up somewhere between PA Treasury and the banks. If your UC dashboard shows "payment issued" then the money is probably just stuck in transit. It'll probably show up by end of day.

This happens occasionally with electronic transfers. If your PA UC portal shows that payment was issued, I wouldn't worry too much yet. However, if you need to verify that everything is okay with your claim, you should try to speak with a UC representative. If you can't get through on the phone lines (which is common), I'd recommend trying Claimyr (claimyr.com). They have a service that helps you get through to a PA UC agent without waiting on hold all day. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 showing how it works. I used it last month when I had a similar issue with a delayed payment and was able to confirm there wasn't actually a problem with my claim - the money showed up the next day.

This is likely due to the batch processing schedule at the PA Treasury Department. They send out UC payments in multiple batches throughout the day and week. Direct deposits to different financial institutions are processed at different times. Some facts to keep in mind: 1. PA UC payments are typically processed 2-3 business days after you file your weekly claim 2. Once processed, the Treasury Department initiates the transfer 3. Some banks like Chime may show deposits earlier than traditional banks 4. If your payment status shows "Payment Issued" on the PA UC portal, the money has been sent 5. There can sometimes be 1-2 day delays at certain times of the month I'd suggest checking your UC dashboard to confirm the payment status before assuming there's a problem.

OMG I LITERALLY CAME HERE TO POST THE SAME THING!!!! My UC payment ALWAYS hits my Chime account by 11am and its now 3:30pm and NOTHING!!! I'm freaking out cause rent is due and my landlord is already mad from last month when I was late. Why does the PA unemployment system have to be so FRUSTRATING!?!?!?!?

UPDATE: My payment just hit my Chime account at 4:15pm! Way later than usual but at least it came through. Anyone else get theirs yet?

This happened to me last week too with Chime. I think there might be some changes on their end with how they're processing government payments. My friend who gets SSI had the same issue last week where his payment was about 6 hours later than normal. One thing that's helped me is setting up the Transaction alerts in the Chime app so I get notified immediately when the deposit hits rather than checking constantly. Also, for future reference, it's good to have a small emergency buffer if you can so you're not cutting it so close with bills.

Mine FINALLY came through at 6:20pm!!! Never been this late before. Seems like something weird was happening with Chime and PA UC today. At least we all got paid eventually!
