Workers Compensation and unemployment benefits are two entirely different systems and so your workers compensation settlement should not hold any bearing on whether you can collect unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits are not an automatic, however. To qualify for unemployment insurance benefits, a worker must: * Have worked a certain number of weeks during the year * Have earned a certain amount of money in the past year * Be actively looking for work * Be unemployed through no fault of his own

Can you collect unemployment and welfare at the same time in California?

Yes, if you recently lost a job, and have very low income and few resources, you may qualify for both unemployment and welfare benefits. If you are approved for unemployment, welfare will count the unemployment benefits as "unearned" income, and the benefit will count against your welfare benefits. Both unemployment and welfare require you to look for work. Welfare can grant a deferral from the work requirement if you are unable to work, but the unemployment agency will deny your claim if you are unable to work. The exception to this is if you became disabled after becoming eligible for unemployment, or if you were disabled due to an illness or injury not caused by your job
