Does this mean taxes have already been taken out or will I have to pay the taxes when I submit them?

The entry in Box 14 is included in your wages in BOX 1.  Therefore, taxes have been accounted for in BOX 2.  

 

As with all tax withholding it is an estimate. You may owe or get a refund based on other income and deductions.

Does that mean you are taxed twice? Should you still be taxed on all future severance payments as well?
