It was 6 weeks before I received benefits. I could never reach a "live person". So, within the profile for setting up your account, there should be a section for uploading documents if there is ever an appeal and you need to show paperwork as a resource. I went to the document upload, and wrote a letter to the Workforce Commission. In the letter I disclosed how imperative it was for me to receive benefits for economics were taking a toll on my family. After filling my 6-week claim, I received an update that funds were being released to my bank. You may want to try uploading correspondence explaining your situation, as to expedite a response.
