Uif application not processed

I lost my job toward da end of May , around June I stated to submit my uif application and I managed to submit all documents in July. Ever since then I have been told the same reason my application has not being processed due to high volume of application but people who submitted after me got their uif payment I don't know if this is a strategy to not pay us. I hav bills that I need to pay and maybe I have to loose everything and sleep in the street first. I'm disappointed at our government big time but when one is working they are the first one to deduct my salary
