Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Severance pay should be reported (and entered) as part of your W-2 wages.  Severance pay, including unused personal time payments, are fully taxable.  This means that you should have received a W-2 that included these wages.  If you received the severance in 2018, you'll get the W-2 next year. If you did not receive a W-2 that included all severance pay, contact your employer and request a corrected W-2.

If you have additional questions or details regarding this, please feel free to post in the comments for further clarification.
