Confused about Unemployment -- 8 month Severance Pkg

After signing the Severance Package (or even now) ... can we still apply for Unemployment benefits? If so when?

Another question, my State's unemployment site and other sites say you have to apply where you reside. They assume your employer is in the same state. It is complicated to apply for Unemployment as a remote worker if Vz office is in a different state?

You cannot apply for unemployment while you are still on the payroll. Do it the day after your last official day of work. Make sure you download paystubs and anything you may need for your specific state before you lose you access to Inside Verizon.

You file for unemployment in the State in which you reside. Live.

You apply in your state. Hopefully you've been honest and aren't claiming to live in a no income tax state when you're actually living in state that taxes income. If you've been playing the system you are about to be in for a rude awakening if / when you apply for unemployment.

even a remote worker has an address in their profile, example “PA Home worker”. In that case it is PA and not some random state you choose. Let me guess, unemployment $$ is more in this state you think applies to you
