I’m getting a severance. How will that affect Unemployment Insurance (UI)?

While you must report earnings if you are working while claiming UI, on an Oregon claim, severance pay is not reportable as earnings. On an Oregon claim, don’t report severance when claiming a week of UI benefits.

Page 8: WorkSource Lane Rapid Response presentation

Activate your UI claim at www.employment.oregon.gov ‘Unemployment’ / ‘Use the Online Claim System’

BOTH ‘Restart your claim’ AND ‘Claim a week of benefits’

Remember, you need to meet weekly eligibility requirements. These requirements and helpful tips are in the Claimant Handbook at www.employment.oregon.gov

‘Unemployment’ / ‘Answer UI Questions’

THEN…when you are ready to rejoin the workforceActivate your UI claim
