Anyone else that was laid off the first week in September get their severance payment (minus the 22% for taxes) today? I was told repeatedly that I had to wait 60 days and former employees who were laid off before me said they didn’t get theirs for 60 days. I’m glad to get it early but also a little cautious that it may have been done by mistake.

Yep....L3harris layoff got me. Did not get my check until the last week. Also, when they surprised you in the conference room with HR, paperwork and a I'M SORRY, they do not tell you your severance pay will be docked 22% before they rush you out the door without your personal belongings. Mine were brought out in a box and handed to me from a new UNQUALIFIED manager that was transferring that day because it was too much for (that person), but in reality, did not have the experience to run an Engineering lab. Fact: Nobody had been laid off in that lab (the busiest) in over 40yrs.....Hmmm......
@OP my severance took about 30 days to get.
60 days after you sign the release. I tried negotiating with them HR were you lucky we paying severance pay. I am glad I am somehere else.
