Where do I list information for a severance package?

If you received in 2021 it should be part of your W-2.  if it is not contact your employer for documentation that you can use on your tax return.  It is taxable federally, may be tax exempt in some states.

I have received a severance package on last year. I paid lots of taxes on it. Where do I list that information on the return?

The severance payment should already be included on your W-2 box 1 with the federal taxes withheld in box 2.
