It is possible to receive unemployment and a pension in California under certain conditions specified in Section 1255.3 . You will receive full unemployment benefits if you contributed to the pension fund that is being distributed. (Examples for Federal Benefits include Social Security, Railroad Retirement and the Civil Service Retirement System CSRS, and FERS) Plans that did not require any employee contribution are not exempt and will have unemployment benefits reduced by the amount of the payment. For the complete California law go to the Related Link below.

Yes, you can collect California unemployment benefits when you have a pension. However, according to the Pension or Retirement; A. Pension Law - Section 1255.3 (a), found in the Related Link below, the benefit shall be reduced, but not below 0, by an amount of the pension attributable to the benefits in that week.

This is correct but I would follow up this answer with what if you started receiving pension from previous employers from 10 years back and is not the base employer. Will this too be deducted from your UI? Thanks

This is correct but we need to know how this will impact your previous employers pension and not the base employer in which the UI is awarded.

You find out that you are eligible to draw pension you did not contribute employer X you worked 15 years back. Will this impact or deducted from your current UI benefits per 1255.3?

That portion of your pension that you had contributed to is not deducted from your unemployment compensation. That which is contributed by the employer is.
