TWC waiting week payment timing - submitted online but request days don't align

The waiting week payment timing depends on when you submitted it relative to your regular request schedule. Since you submitted it outside your normal request day (Monday), it will likely process on a different timeline than your regular payments. In my experience, TWC typically processes these within 3-5 business days of submission, regardless of your regular schedule. It might actually arrive before your next regular payment.

The WHOLE waiting week system is ridiculous!! I had to wait 7 business days for mine and then it was only HALF of my regular benefit amount! No explanation, no warning, just half the money I was expecting. Called TWC 43 TIMES before getting through only to be told "that's just how the waiting week works" 🤬

i got mine in 2 days but my request day is wednesday so maybe thats why it was faster for me good luck hope u get it soon

When I had trouble getting information about my waiting week payment last month, I used Claimyr (claimyr.com) to get through to TWC immediately instead of waiting on hold for hours. They have this video that shows how it works: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U?si=kNxmh025COIlIzKh. The agent I spoke with explained that waiting week payments typically process 3-4 business days after submission, regardless of your regular request day. They were able to confirm exactly when mine would arrive, which really helped with planning my finances.

To clarify about the waiting week payment process: 1. The waiting week is paid after you've received benefits for at least three weeks 2. It's always 50% of your weekly benefit amount (not your full benefit) 3. Processing time is typically 3-5 business days from submission 4. It processes independently from your regular biweekly request schedule 5. You can check its status in your payment summary on the TWC portal Since you submitted it yesterday, you'll likely see the payment hit your account by the end of this week or early next week. The system doesn't always show it as pending in the payment status section until it's actually processed.

when i was on unemployment my waiting wk payment came 4 days after i submited it but this was back in january so maybe its diffrent now my cousin just got his and it took almost a week he said

dont 4get to keep doing ur work searches even while waiting for the waiting week payment! i messed up and missed reporting my work searches one week and they stopped all my payments for like 10 days until i called and fixed it
