This thread is such a goldmine of information! I'm currently dealing with a TWC issue myself (different from the overpayment display error but equally frustrating) and seeing how everyone rallied to help Noah figure out his situation really gives me hope. The fact that multiple people experienced the same "portal correction request" solution shows this is definitely a systemic issue with their March 2025 processing. What I find most valuable is how specific everyone got with the details - knowing to ask for the "benefits control" team and not accepting vague "we'll look into it" responses is the kind of insider knowledge you can't get anywhere else. TWC's system clearly has some serious technical issues, but this community's collective problem-solving is amazing. Noah, congrats on getting it resolved, and thanks for posting the update - that kind of closure is so helpful for future readers dealing with similar issues!

This entire thread has been such a valuable resource! I've been following along because I'm dealing with a similar TWC account display issue, and the collective knowledge shared here is incredible. What really stands out to me is how this community identified a pattern - multiple people with March 2025 approvals experiencing the same "overpayment" display error, all resolved with the same "portal correction request" solution. This is exactly the kind of real-world intelligence that makes these forums so valuable. For anyone finding this thread in the future: the key takeaways seem to be 1) Don't panic if your account shows overpayment but you never got a determination letter, 2) Call TWC and specifically ask about a "portal correction request", 3) Get transferred to the "benefits control" team if the first rep can't help, and 4) Consider using services like Claimyr or visiting Workforce Solutions in person if phone calls aren't working. Noah, huge thanks for following up with the resolution - that closure is so helpful for future readers dealing with this exact scenario!

One more thing - if you can't find the card and need to request a replacement, be prepared to wait another 7-10 business days. If you're in a financial pinch, definitely switch to direct deposit like someone suggested above. Your existing funds will transfer to the new payment method.

Glad you found it! This is such a common issue - I work at a local community center and we get people asking about this all the time. The plain white envelope from U.S. Bank really does look like a credit card solicitation. We actually started telling people to expect it in our unemployment workshops because so many folks were accidentally throwing them away. Setting up direct deposit is definitely the way to go for future payments - much more reliable than waiting for mail!

Glad to hear your payment is showing as pending now! That's a huge relief, especially during the holidays. For future reference, I've found that Wells Fargo usually makes unemployment deposits available early in the morning (around 6-7 AM) on the scheduled day. So you'll probably see it hit your account first thing Thursday morning. The anxiety of waiting for that first payment is real - been there myself. Once you get into the routine, you'll know exactly when to expect it each week.

Pro tip for everyone stressed about timing - I've been on unemployment twice and found that setting up text alerts through your bank app really helps with the anxiety. Most banks will send you a notification the moment any deposit hits your account, so you don't have to keep checking constantly. Also, if you're really in a pinch financially, some food banks and churches do emergency assistance during the holidays while you're waiting for your payment to clear. Hope everyone gets their deposits soon!

I've been filing TWC payments for about 8 months and your 7am filing time is perfect! That puts you right at the front of their daily processing queue. Since your status shows "processed," you should definitely see the deposit by Wednesday or Thursday morning. One tip - download the ReliaCard mobile app if you haven't already. The deposit usually shows up there first, sometimes even before 6am, and you can set up push notifications so you'll know the moment it hits. This takes away all the guesswork and constant checking. Given that it's Tuesday and you filed early morning with a clean processed status, I'd bet on Wednesday or Thursday morning at the latest. The system has been pretty reliable lately for most people despite some of the horror stories you might read.

I've been filing TWC for about 10 months now and wanted to reassure you - filing at 7am this morning was absolutely the right move! You're definitely at the front of their processing queue. Since your status already shows "processed," that's a really good sign that everything went through cleanly without any flags or issues. In my experience, when you file that early on a Tuesday with processed status, you're looking at Wednesday or Thursday morning for the deposit to hit your ReliaCard. The deposits typically appear between 6-9am, so check first thing in the morning rather than throughout the day. One thing that helped me manage the anxiety of waiting - the ReliaCard app shows pending deposits sometimes a few hours before they're actually available to spend, so you might get advance notice that it's coming. Given your timing and clean status, I'd be very surprised if you don't see it by Thursday morning at the absolute latest.

Just wanted to add one more thing that might help - if you do end up having to wait longer than expected for the EB determination, you can apply for emergency SNAP benefits while you're between programs. A lot of people don't realize that losing unemployment benefits actually qualifies you for expedited SNAP processing (usually within 3 days). Also, I noticed you mentioned medical billing - have you considered looking into medical coding positions? It's related to what you already do but often pays better, and many employers will train experienced billing specialists in coding. The AAPC (American Academy of Professional Coders) has free webinars and study materials. Even if you don't get certified right away, just showing familiarity with coding on your resume can open up more opportunities. Keep your head up - the fact that you're being so proactive and organized about this whole situation shows you're going to land on your feet!

I'm going through the exact same thing right now! My benefits just exhausted last week and I was completely panicking until I found this thread. Reading everyone's experiences has been so helpful - especially knowing that the EB determination is usually automatic and takes about 7-14 days. I wanted to add something I discovered that might help others: if you're really struggling to get through to TWC by phone, some local libraries have career counselors who are familiar with the unemployment system and can help you understand your options. My local branch has a "job seeker support" program that I didn't even know existed. Also, for anyone worried about medical billing opportunities - I've been seeing more remote positions lately, especially with smaller practices that outsource their billing. Don't overlook the smaller medical billing companies - they often have less competition than the big hospital systems. Thanks to everyone who shared their experiences here. It really helps to know we're not alone in this process!
