Severance and unemployment, do they overlap? - 2 months and counting

I signed a severance agreement and I am worried about how to report it. Thank you in advance. I also wonder about the job-search requirement. How did your state treat it?

Some states only count certain kinds of severance. A local workforce centre could tell me which.

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.
