I am 66 years of age and got laid off the same month that I started Social Security. Yes you can draw both. I live in California and have not had any problems.
You can collect both Social Security and unemployment security benefits in all 50 states at the same time. Only 4 states (Illinois, Louisiana, Utah, and Virginia) offset unemployment by some part of the Social Security benefit.
I currently collecting unemployment and will be eligible for SS in a month. May I apply for my Social Sucurity while I am collecting unemployment?

You can generally still collect unemployment while collecting social security, unless it is social security disability...even then you still might be able to. I worked for the Unemployment Office & just an FYI, they do not know if you are on social security and are unable to check, so if you do not say anything, they will never know.
Yes, but Illinois is one of 4 states that offset your unemployment benefits by a part of your Social Security
It doesn't. They are separate programs and you have to qualify for them individually.
Illinois, Utah, and Louisiana, according to the Related Link below.
Yes. Neither interferes with the other.
