PA UC, Severance, and Vaca Pay

[driver8ted]

In Pennsylvania, how is Unemployment Compensation affected by severance and vacation pay? The Department of Labor and Industry sent a form asking if I received either and how much but my UC benefit checks are still arriving. Should I expect the severance and vacation pay to diminish or stop my benefits or did the state ask for record-keeping reasons?

They also asked your employer what they paid. If you are already receiving UC checks, I doubt they will stop; or at least, if they do, it will only be temporary. Vacation and/or severance pay can have an effect on the initial eligiblity date but they do not render you ineligible.
