ESD weekly claim says 'paid' but shows $0 - payment processing stuck?

probly means ur claim is under review now. happened to me 2. sometimes they randomly check ur eligibility again or something. sucks but u gotta call them

Just went through this exact thing!!! When it says "paid" but $0 it usually means something flagged your account. Could be a job search issue, earnings reported, or even identity verification. Check your notices/letters in your eServices account ASAP!

This is a classic sign that your claim has hit an adjudication issue. The "paid $0" status happens when the system processes your claim but doesn't release funds due to a pending issue. Since you can't see any notices, it's likely a brand new flag on your account that hasn't generated paperwork yet. Unfortunately, you absolutely need to speak with an ESD agent to resolve this. They won't fix it automatically in most cases.

I had this exact problem last month. "Paid $0" usually means there's an eligibility issue they're investigating. When I finally got through to ESD, they told me it was because I had checked the "working part-time" box by mistake on one question. Check your weekly claim confirmation emails carefully for any differences from previous weeks. But honestly, you need to call them ASAP - these issues don't resolve themselves, and the longer you wait, the more weeks might get held up.

I had the same $0 paid status in January when my claim randomly went into adjudication after 4 months of no problems! It was because I had a new part-time job interview and they wanted to verify I was still eligible. Took 3 WEEKS to resolve because I couldn't get through on the phones. Finally got through using Claimyr (claimyr.com) - they have this system that holds your place in line and calls you when an agent is available. Totally worth it because I was about to get evicted! They have a demo video too: https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3

Let me clarify something here: the "paid $0" status specifically indicates that your weekly claim was processed but payment was blocked due to an eligibility issue. This is different from adjudication, which would show as "pending" or "adjudication in progress." The most common reasons for a $0 payment are: 1. Excess earnings reported that week 2. Job refusal flag 3. Availability issue (indicating you weren't available for work) 4. Work search requirements not met 5. Benefit year expired First, check your "Notices/Letters" tab in eServices - look for anything recent. Then check your "Decisions" tab for any new status updates. Finally, verify in your payment history if there's a specific denial code listed next to the $0 payment. If nothing appears in any of those places, you're correct that you'll need to call ESD directly. The issue might still be in process and not yet reflected in your online account.

This EXACT thing happened to my nephew last month!!! ESD is SO BROKEN!!!! He did everything right for 6 months then suddenly $0 payments with NO EXPLANATION!!! Called for WEEKS with no answer!!! By the time he got through they said it was a "system error" and fixed it but he almost got EVICTED waiting!!!! THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED AGAINST WORKING PEOPLE!!!

did u change anything in ur last claim? sometimes even tiny things trigger their system. my friend put she was "not available" for ONE day (for a doctor appointment) and that messed up her whole payment
