I was working in a company and got laid off on Jan 20, 2016. I have severance package for 10 weeks that is ending on March 30,2016. I am considered as a full time employee with all benefits and pay during those 10 weeks. I have pay stubs till March 30, 2016. That shows pay as regular employee pay. But I was not Actively employed.

Unemployment days (not considering severance as regular pay):
Feb 2, 2015 - February 16, 2015 --> 15 days
Jan 21, 2016 - April 3, 2016 --> 74 days

Total = 19 days of unemployment
I confirmed with my university that SEVIS has not been deactivated and nothing has been done from university side.
