Does severance delay my unemployment claim? (update)

    My employer is paying severance in instalments and I am not sure whether to file now. I also wonder about the job-search requirement. How did your state treat it?

    Rules differ by state. I called the claims line and asked directly, then wrote down the answer and the date.

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