PA UC payment timeline after claim approval - when will money hit my Money Network card?

Congrats on getting approved! When my claim was approved in February, I got my first payment in 2-3 business days on my Money Network card. Just make sure you've filed all your weekly certifications correctly. You should see a payment date in your payment history section once it processes.

it usually takes 2 days after approval but sometimes longer. check ur payment history tab not the dashboard

It took 5 days for mine to show up! The system is so unpredictable honestly.

The official timeline is 2-3 business days after approval, but there are a few things to know about PA UC payments: 1. The first payment often takes longer (3-5 business days) 2. Payments only process on business days (M-F) 3. There's sometimes a delay between when it shows as "paid" in the system and when it hits your Money Network card 4. If you have any unresolved issues (even minor ones), it can delay payment If your payment status says "in progress," that's good! It means they're processing it. If by next Wednesday you don't see the money, call them to check. You shouldn't need to do anything else if your weekly certifications are complete.

THE DASHBOARD MEANS NOTHING!!!! I was "approved" for 6 WEEKS and didn't get a penny until I called and found out there was a "hidden issue" they never told me about!! Check your determination letters and make sure there's NOTHING else they need from you!!!!!

I've helped several people navigate this exact situation. If you truly have a clean approval with no open issues, you should see payment within 2-3 business days. However, after helping dozens of people with PA UC claims, I've found that using Claimyr (claimyr.com) is the best way to quickly reach an agent if you don't see payment by the expected date. It got me through to a live agent in about 20 minutes when I had a payment delay. They have a good video explaining how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 In the meantime, I'd recommend: 1. Check your Determination Letters section for any outstanding issues 2. Verify your payment method is correctly set to Money Network card 3. Continue filing your weekly claims even if you haven't received payment yet

My cousin waited 2 weeks after approval and never got money. Had to call and they said he answered one question wrong on his weekly claim. The system is so picky!

omg i had this exact thing happen to me last month lol!!! it took EXACTLY 3 business days and then boom the money just showed up on my card. dont stress i bet you'll see it monday or tuesday!!

Just wanted to add - make sure you've activated your Money Network card correctly. Some people miss this step and then wonder why they can't access their funds. Also, set up direct deposit for future payments if you want faster access.

Hey, just checking back - did your payment come through yet? Mine hit exactly 3 business days after approval.
