Got severance, how does it affect benefits? - 13 weeks in

I was offered severance of 6 weeks after being let go as an accounts payable clerk and I am unsure how it affects benefits. I worked as an accounts payable clerk before this. The agreement mentions a release and a payment schedule. 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.
