I am receiving a severance package
from my former employer.
Do I have to wait until my severance pay ends before I file a claim for unemployment?
 

No. Your severance pay will not effect your ability to file an unemployment claim. The money you receive as severance pay is not deducted from your weekly unemployment benefits.
