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.
My question is that I was laid off and currently collecting unemployment benefits. I am also collecting benefits as a widow for my late husband's benefits. Can I do this?
US Social Security benefits would have no effect on your ability to collect NY State unemployment benefits. They are two entirely separate programs and one does not preclude the other.

Yes, if you meet eligibility requirements for both programs.

Yes, you can collect them both at the same time.
To collect unemployment benefits, contact your local state employment security office, or its equivalent, to file your claim. The Social Security application needs to be through the local Social Security Administration's office, information can be found online.

Yes, if you qualify for the unemployment and, for Social Security, the only question then is if it is early or for the full benefits
Social Security has no affect on Colorado's unemployment benefits. Only 4 other states have their unemployment offset by a portion of Social Security.
