Severance and unemployment, do they overlap? - first time posting

I signed a severance agreement and I am worried about how to report it. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. The agreement mentions a release and a payment schedule. How did your state treat it?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 12 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
