The fact that you received severance pay, in itself, does not make you eligible for unemployment benefits. There are many reasons a person receives severance, including voluntarily leaving a job, so that is not a determinant.

Can unemployment benefits and severance from an employer be collected at the same time in NY state?
I did. I received lump sum severance and collected unemployment in NYC. Of course, the regular one week waiting period for unemployment still goes so make sure to apply immediately. Actually, if you think about it, a lump sum payment is really part of your compensation package, so as long you don't keep receiving a paycheck after that, then why shouldn't you be entitled to unemployment like everyone else? I imagine it would be different if you cotinue to receive a paycheck every week for a specified amount of time after you were let go though...
