Severance and unemployment, do they overlap? - 3 weeks in

I signed a severance agreement and I am worried about how to report it. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I have a mortgage and need to plan. Who should I ask before signing?

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.

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