How long does it take after your have been granted approval by the judge hearing to recieve payment

Hi,
I had been working for a company in Sacramento, Ca an I was fired. I filed for unemployment. I was denied because I was in school. I filed for my appeal with the 20 days and wrote a letter stating that how I had been working and going to school for a while now. I saw and met with a judge on the 15th of Oct 2009. On the 3rd of Nov 2009 I received my letter from the judge saying I was eligible to receive benefits from June 7th 2009 that I was never ineligible. I had been receiving the claim forms. I just sent off the most recent claim form they sent me like maybe a week or a little less than a week ago. I was just wondering how long does it take to receive a check from them. Does EDD know that I was approved? Do I call in let them know? I've never done this before this is my 1st time so I kind of don't know what to do next.I would greatly appreicate your insight.

Thank You Much,
Latricia


Latricia,

If you have been cleared for benefits and you received the decision on 11/3 you should have received retro. I would only allow seven days before to pass from the time I received the decision to start making some noise to find out where the benefits are.

Guess you know what you should do first thing tomorrow .. right.
