Got severance, how does it affect benefits?

    I was offered severance of 3 weeks after being let go as a teaching assistant and I am unsure how it affects benefits. It has been a long 9 weeks. I have a mortgage and need to plan. 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 settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
