When will TWC deposit hit after requesting on Sunday 12/22? Processing date shows 12/23
Hey everybody! I just did my payment request on Sunday (Dec 22nd) and the TWC website is showing it was processed on Monday (12/23). Anyone know when the deposit will actually show up in my account? First time filing and I'm trying to figure out if I'll have money before Christmas. Getting anxious about bills coming due.

It usually takes 2-3 business days after the processing date for the money to hit your account. Since your payment was processed on 12/23, you should see it by 12/26 or 12/27 at the latest. Keep in mind that bank holidays can delay things, and with Christmas tomorrow (12/24), that might push it to Friday. Direct deposit is faster than the TWC debit card option.

•If you have the TWC debit card it usually takes longer than direct deposit. I always get mine 2 days after processing date with direct deposit, but when I had the card it took 3-4 days sometimes.

The TWC system is COMPLETELY UNRELIABLE for payment timing! I've been on unemployment three times and every single time it's different. Sometimes I get it in 2 days, sometimes it takes 5 DAYS FOR NO REASON! And trying to call them to ask is a JOKE - you'll sit on hold for 3+ hours if you can even get through. They seriously need to fix their prehistoric system!!!

•I've found that using Claimyr really helps when you need to actually talk to someone at TWC about payment issues. I was stuck in the same endless hold pattern until I tried it. Got through to a rep in about 15 minutes instead of hours of redialing. They have a video showing how it works at https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U?si=kNxmh025COIlIzKh and their website is claimyr.com if you want to check it out.

It depends on your bank too. TWC might process it quickly, but then some banks hold it for 24 hours before making it available. I have Frost Bank and they always release my unemployment payment immediately when TWC sends it, but my husband has Chase and they always hold it an extra day. Also, make sure you completed your work search requirements correctly (3 activities per week). If you made any mistakes there, it could delay things.

•I have Wells Fargo. And yeah, I definitely did all my work search activities. Made sure to document everything. Just getting worried since it's my first payment and Christmas is tomorrow.

For most people, payments hit 2 business days after the processing date. Since your payment was processed on 12/23 and tomorrow is Christmas (a bank holiday), you'll likely see it on Thursday 12/26. The TWC website should show a payment date in your claim and payment status section. That's the date TWC releases the funds, then your bank typically takes 1-2 days to make it available.

•Exactly this. Just to add - if you're really concerned, you can check your bank's pending deposits. Sometimes you can see it pending before it's fully available. With Wells Fargo, you might see it pending Wednesday night for Thursday availability.

Has anyone else noticed that the payments are coming later and later each month? Back in January my deposits always hit Tuesday morning when I requested on Sunday. Now I'm lucky if I get it by Thursday! The TWC is falling apart with these delays!!

Just checked with a friend who also requested on Sunday. Her payment is showing as deposited today (12/24), but it won't be available until the 26th because of the holiday. So TWC processed it quickly, but the banking system slows things down with holidays.

•Thanks for checking! I just looked and mine is showing as pending now! Relief!!

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.
