How long does it take to receive my first unemployment payment after applying?
The timeframe for receiving the first unemployment payment after applying in Ohio varies depending on several factors. Generally, it takes around three to four weeks to receive the payment. However, this timeframe can be affected by various factors such as the accuracy and promptness of your application, any issues that may require additional verification, and the volume of claims currently being processed. It is important to ensure that you accurately provide all required information when applying to avoid any delays. Once your application is processed and approved, you will be notified of the decision, and if eligible, you can expect to receive your first payment through direct deposit or a debit card within the aforementioned timeframe.
