Claim status changed from 'adjudication' to 'pending' - what's next with ESD?

This is actually a good sign! When your claim moves from adjudication to pending, it typically means ESD has completed their review of whatever issue required adjudication and they're now just processing your payment. In my experience, pending status usually only lasts 2-3 business days before changing to paid. As long as you keep filing your weekly claims, you should see movement soon.

same thing hapnd to me last month... was in adjdcation for like 18 days then went to pending for 2 days then paid!! hang in there

I waited FIVE MONTHS in adjudication last year!!! The ESD system is completely BROKEN!! They never even told me why I was in adjudication in the first place!!! Had to sell my car to pay rent while waiting for these incompetent bureaucrats to do their job!!!!!

The transition from adjudication to pending is a normal part of the claim processing sequence. During adjudication, ESD is investigating specific issues related to your eligibility. Once that's complete, your claim moves to pending status while they process the payment. Here's what happens next: 1. Your status should change from pending to paid within 2-5 business days 2. Direct deposit usually takes 24-48 hours after the status changes to paid 3. Debit cards take 3-5 business days to arrive after first payment If it stays in pending status for more than a week, that might indicate another issue has arisen. Keep filing your weekly claims regardless of your claim status.

I went through exactly this in January. My claim was stuck in adjudication for 3 weeks, then went to pending for about 4 days before getting paid. If you're really anxious about it, I found a service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me through to an actual ESD agent on the phone after I'd been trying for days on my own. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3 that shows how it works. The agent I spoke with was able to tell me exactly what was happening with my claim and when I could expect payment. Gave me peace of mind during a stressful time.

I think I'm confused about terminology. Is adjudication the same as disqualification? My claim says disqualified and now I'm worried reading this thread.

Wait when did you file your claim? You said last Sunday but also said you were in adjudication "for the first two weeks"? Timelines not making sense...

Just to follow up on this thread - the standard progression of an ESD claim is: Submitted → Processing → Adjudication (if there are issues) → Pending → Paid Some claims skip adjudication entirely if there are no eligibility questions. The fact that yours moved from adjudication to pending is definitely a positive sign. Make sure you continue completing your job search activities (3 per week) and filing your weekly claims while you wait for payment processing.
