What are you using to remove it? Is it rusted a bit?

If rusted put some penetrate lube on it and use a longer breaker bar. Or a piece of pipe on your ratchet. Or an impact gun.

the nut is "pinched" you will need to get a flathead screwdriver and get it unpinched.

Also try searching for "axle nut" in the archives of this forum as this has been discussed before.
