So last week was my 26 th payment for state benefits, I filed for EUC, got my monetary determination letter last week for tier 1 20 weeks, was the same weekly amount I have already been receiving since I haven't worked.

Filed my first claim under EUC this past Sunday, said my claim was accepted, usually If I claimed on a Sunday, $ was in my account on Tuesdays. Today no $ in my checking account. Do they mail out the EUC checks? I'm unsure. I'm in CT by the way.

Payments aren't mailed if up to this time you do direct deposit. States are required to do a monetary reevaluation when transitioning from state to federal benefits. This often results in a delay in payment. How long, depends on the state.

thanks Ariadne, $$ was put into my account this morning about 5 minutes after I posted this question. Seemless transition from state benefits to Tier 1...exactly 1 week.

I continue to say CT is on the ball so far with their unemployment, with me anyway.

Now if I hear back from one of the two jobs I had interviews with late last week with positive news, I don't have to worry about tiers any longer.
