Can you collect both Social Security and unemployment at the same time?

Yes, for the reasons that follow: The two programs are different. Social Security is a Federal program that you pay into from your paycheck, as does the employer, and you are eligible to receive after you turn 62 (unless earlier due to being disabled, which is covered under a different part of the program). The longer you delay receiving Social Security the larger the monthly benefit you would get.

The amount you receive depends on your age, how many 'quarters' you worked, and the amount of your earnings On the other hand, unemployment security, a federal/state program, administered by the state, comes from contributions paid into the program by the employer and the amount he pays in is a percentage of his payroll based on the employer's turn-over rate of employees (the lower the turn-over, the lower the percentage). This way the employer is encouraged to retain employees in order to reduce his costs. The employee, generally, receives unemployment benefits from the state's collected 'employer's unemployment contribution pool', IF he was laid off, i.e.

Reduction in staff, etc. , or was fired without cause (not caught stealing, harassment, drugs, etc. ), or other reasons not due to his own actions. Thus you can both draw Social Security while still working (as I had done) or if drawing unemployment because the reason for drawing both are different, from different government agencies, and for different causes.

Most often yes. If you need to obtain a definitive answer, do so from an attorney versed in these matters since asking the SSA or your state labor dept will likely result in unqualified and conflicting self serving responses.

Yes you can receive Social Security Disability (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security retirement benefits and unemployment compensation if you can meet the eligibility requirements of both programs A few states, such as Illinois, Louisiana, South Dakota (until fund increases), Virginia (until fund increases), and Utah apply an offset of 50% for people receiving both social security benefits and unemployment compensation. This means your weekly unemployment check is reduced by 50% of the weekly value of your Social Security Disability (SSDI) check. Minnesota applies a 50% offset only for people who began receiving disability benefits after their work separation.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is not counted as income for offset purposes While federal laws and the Social Security Administration don't prohibit people on disability from receiving unemployment checks, state unemployment regulations require all unemployment recipients to be actively seeking, willing and able to accept suitable work (comparable to previous employment or something appropriate to your skill set) This may creates a conflict if the unemployment entity in your state requires you to find full-time work, because you're generally not eligible for Social Security disability benefits if you're capable of full-time work When you file for unemployment compensation, all states require you to provide your Social Security number (authorized under Internal Revenue Code of 1954, 26 U.S.C. 85, Sections 6011(a), 6050(b), 6109(a), P.L. 98-369, Section 1137(a)(1)). They will share information about your claim with other government agencies to determine how unemployment affects other benefits you may receive, such as Medicaid and food stamps Under most state unemployment statutes, you must be ready, willing and able to accept employment, be actively seeking work, and must accept any reasonable employment offer for which you are qualified (unless there are legitimate, extenuating circumstances for refusing the offer), or your unemployment compensation can (and probably will) be terminated If you are physically incapable of doing qualifying work under your state unemployment agreement, the state may consider you ineligible for benefits, or may consider your claim fraudulent if they later discover you're too disabled to fulfill your contractual agreement. Under these circumstances, you will be terminated from unemployment and may be required to repay any compensation you received.

Other definitions of "disability" may allow benefits if you are unable to perform a specific occupation or progession.
