Monica, I am in the same boat! Waiting on a Deputy since April and hearing the be patient frase. I was in the legislative line and things were moving a bit faster, yet since changed to the normal line, most of the time I have to tell the customer service agent what to look for. Most agents don’t even read the notes in full and provide erroneous info to then be caught in their mistake and simply say “oh yes I see it, sorry you need to be patient they are really behind “ in my case it was the agency who made the mistake and I am the one getting penalized.

To all those having trouble reaching a human at Virginia unemployment. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/GK1CFuX4p2k

This is such a frustrating situation that so many of us are dealing with! I'm also waiting on a deputy review - it's been 4 months for me. I've called multiple times and keep getting the same "be patient" response. It's really hard to be patient when you need these benefits to survive. Has anyone had any luck getting escalated or reaching someone higher up who can actually help move these cases along? It seems like there should be some kind of timeline or accountability for how long these reviews can take.
