Unemployment Determination Not Received

I had my hearing with the deputy by phone on April 27th, 2015. The employer was not present but had faxed info in. The deputy asked questions and I answered and the deputy stated that she was unable to give her ruling to me over the phone but I was to expect a determination in the mail in 3 to 4 days. She then repeatedly stated even though I am unable to give you my answer, it will be made TODAY (she stated this about 3 or 4 times as to make sure I got it) and that I could call the automated number and if there was money in my account then it was approved. So I waited a couple days and there was money in my unemployment account but no money had been released to me. So basically I have called and spoke to 4 different people now from unemployment office and they keep stating that the decision has not been made and to keep filing my weeks as I have been. I am now at 5 weeks owed 354.00 a week. Can anyone tell me where to go from here?????

Thanks for the insight in advance#

You've been told by the proper authorities, just keep filing each week as directed, and wait.

We have no authority to tell you anything.

In fact, we know less than you do.

We know nothing about your case.



Contact someone at your nearest office, or visit in person:

Perhaps the agency ombudsman can help?


If you need assistance with resolving a problem or have a question about unemployment benefits, taxes or other agency functions, please use our Agency Ombudsman contact form, or write:

Celia Yette, Ombudsman
Virginia Employment Commission, Room 100
P.O. Box 1358
Richmond, VA 23218-1358

If that won't work for you, call, visit, or write the VA unemployment authorities.
I'm sure you already have their contact details.
There are many reasons as to why you haven't gotten the loot.
BUT, only the VA unemployment authorities know why.
