If you are referring to "defer retirement benefits" as meaning Social Security benefits, there is no need to defer the decision. As long as you can qualify for each of the benefits individually, you can collect both at the same time. They do not interfere with each other at all. Any other retirement programs would be handled by offsetting unemployment benefits by the employer paid portion of retirements on a weekly basis.
