Weekly claim stuck on 'processing IVR' - deposit delayed beyond normal time?

Same thing!!! My claim from Sunday STILL says processing. Normally in my account Tuesday morning. Something must be going on with their system 😤

it happens sometimes dont worry abt it

This is happening to many claimants right now. ESD is experiencing a processing delay with their payment system. When you see 'processing IVR' it means your claim was received through the phone system but hasn't been fully processed yet. This doesn't mean there's an issue with your claim specifically - it's a system-wide slowdown. If your claim status hasn't changed by tomorrow morning, you should try to contact ESD directly. They can verify if there's something specific holding up your claim or if it's just caught in the general processing delay. Did you do anything differently this week when filing? Any job contacts or earnings to report that weren't present in previous weeks?

I'm dealing with the EXACT same issue! Filed Sunday night and still stuck in processing. Usually hits my account Tuesday like clockwork. Called ESD 27 TIMES this morning and just got busy signals or disconnected. This is so frustrating when you have bills due and they give ZERO information about system delays on their website. Why can't they at least post an alert if they know there's an issue????

After trying for hours to get through to ESD about a similar issue last month, I discovered a service called Claimyr that got me connected to an actual ESD agent in under 10 minutes. Saved me from the endless busy signals and disconnects. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3 The agent told me these processing delays happen about once a quarter when they do system updates. Basically, your claim is fine but stuck in a queue. They can usually push it through manually if you can actually reach someone at ESD.

This is a known issue that happens periodically with ESD's payment processing system. Here's what you need to know: 1. The "processing IVR" status means your claim was received through the phone system and is queued for processing. 2. ESD typically processes claims in batches, and occasionally their system experiences delays, especially after weekends with high claim volumes. 3. These system delays DO NOT affect your eligibility or payment amount - you'll still receive the full amount you're entitled to. 4. Most processing delays resolve within 48-72 hours without any action needed on your part. 5. If your claim hasn't processed by the third business day after filing, then you should contact ESD directly as there might be an additional issue. For your situation, since you filed yesterday afternoon, I'd recommend waiting until tomorrow afternoon before becoming too concerned. The system is likely just experiencing a backlog.

UPDATE: Mine just changed from processing to paid!!! Check your account again - maybe they're finally pushing payments through.
