Well, they aren't going to pay you if you don't file weekly claims. I think you can do it retroactively though.

FWIW My son got fired. Filed a claim immediately. Was out of work for about 8 weeks. Could never get through on the phone. The website just said there was an issue. He got a new job.

They finally paid his claim about 6 months later. So I wouldn't count on that money anytime soon. Sorry man. Hope things work out for you.
