Washington ESD unemployment benefits when do they get deposited weekly?

Ok good to know, I was starting to panic that something went wrong with my claim

yeah mine always comes wednesday morning like clockwork

I have Chase, anyone know how they handle Washington ESD deposits?

Chase usually posts them same day as other banks in my experience

Yeah the call volume is insane. I actually found this service called Claimyr at claimyr.com that helps you get through to agents. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ showing how it works. Might be worth checking out if you really need to talk to someone.

Never heard of that, is it legit? I'm desperate at this point

Yeah it's real, they basically handle the calling process for you so you don't have to sit on hold forever

Good point, I'll log into my SecureAccess Washington account and double check

SAW website is down half the time though lol

True but when it works it's the fastest way to see what's happening with your claim

That's helpful, I'll watch for it tomorrow morning then

Mine comes Wednesday though so YMMV

Yeah I elected to have taxes withheld so I'm expecting about $320 after taxes

Smart move, saves you from owing at tax time

Definitely, learned that the hard way my first time on unemployment

I'm trying to be patient but rent is due Friday and I'm cutting it close

been there, it's stressful but it will come through

Oh no! How did you fix that?

Had to update my banking info through the website and then call to get the stuck payments reissued

This is exactly why I need to talk to someone at Washington ESD but can't get through on the phone!

That Claimyr service I mentioned earlier would be perfect for this kind of situation - they help you actually reach agents for banking issues and stuff like that

I filed Sunday night around 8pm, should be fine right?

Yeah that's perfect timing, Sunday is the standard day most people file

I think the deadline is like Sunday midnight or something so you're good

No holidays this week that I know of

Ok then you should see it by Wednesday at the latest

That's reassuring, this is my first time on unemployment so everything makes me nervous

Totally understandable, it gets easier once you know the routine

yeah my friend in another state gets paper checks that take forever

ugh that would be terrible

Awesome! Glad it worked out for you

Wait really? How much did it cost?

They don't mention pricing upfront but it was worth it to finally talk to a real person and get answers

I didn't know they had that, I'll bookmark it for next time

Yeah it's buried in their FAQ section but it's helpful info

Good advice, I already have my calendar reminder set for next Sunday

I'll check that right now!

Yeah mine shows as pending usually Monday night

Great news! Welcome to the routine of weekly unemployment filing

glad it worked out!

Congrats! And remember that Claimyr service is there if you ever need to reach Washington ESD again

Yeah I was definitely overthinking it but better safe than sorry

Smart idea, I'm going to do that right now

Yeah I have alerts set up for any deposit over $100, super helpful

Thanks! Yeah I'm actively looking and doing my job search requirements through WorkSource WA

Good luck with the search!
