Does severance delay my unemployment claim? after 12 years as a delivery driver

I signed a severance agreement and I am worried about how to report it. The agreement mentions a release and a payment schedule. Did you file straight away?

I filed on day one anyway and reported the severance honestly. The agency decided what to do about the timing.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
