After your first UIF payment, the second payment typically takes up to 10 business days to reflect in your bank account; once all documents are verified and the claim is in good standing.
However, delays can happen due to:
- Missing or incorrect documentation
- High volumes of claims
- System backlogs at the UIF office
How to Speed Up Your Second UIF Payment:
- Make sure your banking details and documents are correct on uFiling.
- Follow up with the UIF call centre or visit a labour centre if no payment reflects after two weeks.
- Keep proof of your first payment, claim reference number, and ID ready for faster assistance.
