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...

Can an employer take out 401k on a severance package after you cancelled your 401k?
(a) Your unemployment benefits depends on how your severance package is being paid out. If you get lump sum severance, then you are good shape for immediate benefits. But if your ex-company keeps you on payroll until the end of your severance period, then your unemployment benefits MAY not kick-in until you exhaust your severance.(b) I don't think any (early) withdrawal from your 401(k) affects your unemployment benefits - because it is not "earnedincome". Only earned income may affect your benefit.(c) You may be getting the 401(k) match mixed up. Company "match" does not reduce your paycheck - it doesn't affect your paycheck. But be careful about the company match - don't plan for it unless you are sure it is already "vested". Company matches will show up in your 401(k) balance, but it MAY not be yours until vested. Most companies do not automatically vest the match when there is employment separation.
