Can i collect social security and unemployment at the same time in the state of Florida?
Florida does not have state disability benefits.You can get private disability coverage in Florida. Check your policy to see the integration language relating to social security disability. You can collect on both policies at the same time, however the private policies will offset the benefit to a varying degree.
Can you use social security as a savings and pay more into it to maximize payment?
No. The social security tax for 2016 was 6.2 percent of your income and your employer had to contribute an additional 6.2 percent for a total of 12.4%. Their is no option to withhold more or less. To increase your contribution, you need to earn more money, work for a longer time before retiring, or delay collecting social security as each year you wait to collect social security the amount you can get increases.
Can you delay your social security benefits and take your ex-husbands instead?

If you are drawing Social Security can you draw unemployment in Colorado at the same time?
Yes you can. Until recently, Colorado was one of four states that counted SS against a UI claim. That has changed and SS payments DO NOT count. Additionally, SS DOES NOT count UI payments as income.
Can you draw unemployment benefits and Social Security benefits at the same time in Missouri?
Yes you can, and only 4 state's offset your unemployment compensation by a portion of your Social Security benefits (Illinois, Louisiana, Utah, and Virginia). YES. The two programs are different. Social Security is a Federal program that you pay into from your paycheck, as does the employer, and you are eligible to receive after you turn 62 (unless earlier due to being disabled, which is covered under a different part of the program). The longer you delay receiving Social Security the larger the monthly benefit you would get. The amount you receive depends on your age, how many 'quarters' you worked, and the amount of your earnings. On the other hand, unemployment security, a federal/state program, administered by the state, comes from contributions paid into the program by the employer and the amount he pays in is a percentage of his payroll based on the employer's turn-over rate of employees (the lower the turn-over, the lower the percentage). This way the employer is encouraged to retain employees in order to reduce his costs. The employee, generally, receives unemployment benefits from the state's collected 'employer's unemployment contribution pool', IF he was laid off, i.e. reduction in staff, etc., or was fired without cause (not caught stealing, harassment, drugs, etc.), or other reasons not due to his own actions. Thus you can both draw Social Security while still working (as I had done) or if drawing unemployment because the reason for drawing both are different, from different government agencies, and for different causes.

Can you collect unemployment and your Social Security?
Technically and legally, yes, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind.While the Social Security Administration doesn't prohibit people on (SSDI) disability from receiving unemployment checks, state unemployment regulations usually require all unemployment recipients to be willing and able to accept full-time work.This creates a conflict, because you're generally not eligible for Social Security disability benefits if you're capable of full-time work.When you file for unemployment compensation, all states require you to provide your Social Security number (authorized under Internal Revenue Code of 1954, 26 U.S.C. 85, Sections 6011(a), 6050(b), 6109(a), P.L. 98-369, Section 1137(a)(1)). They will share information about your claim with other government agencies to determine how unemployment affects other benefits you may receive, such as Medicaid and food stamps.If you are already receiving Social Security Disability(SSDI), and you are filing an unemployment claim that shows you earned more than an average of $1,000 per month, the Social Security Administration will consider you to have engaged in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA), which will cause problems.The SSA allows people on disability to attempt to reenter the workforce without penalty by providing nine non-consecutive trial work months during which you can earn in excess of $1,000 per month without jeopardizing your benefits. However, any month that you earn more than $720 is counted toward your trial work period (TWP), so if you have already used up your nine-month allotment andyou continued to earn in excess of $1,000 per month, the Social Security Administration may terminate your disability status or may initiate a Continuing Disability Review (CDR) to determine if your disability status should beterminated.If you earned more than $1,000 per month for more than nine months, you may be required to repay the Social Security Administration for overpaid benefits and you may also be terminated from disability.On the other hand, if you file for unemployment compensation based on earnings averaging $1,000 per month or less (below SGA), the unemployment claim is legitimate and shouldn't raise any red flags.If you are in the process of filing for Social Security disability, the conflict between simultaneously claiming to be incapable of "Substantial Gainful Activity" (SGA), which generally translates to full-time work, and contractually agreeing that you're willing to accept full-time work (under state unemployment regulations) in exchange for unemployment compensation, mayresult in being denied disability status (most initial claims and first appeals are denied, anyway).If you persist with the disability claim and proceed to a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ), it will take approximately 18 months to two years from the date you originally filed the claim until your hearing date.By then, your unemployment compensation will (probably) have been exhausted and you will either have been forced to accept employment (thus ending your disability claim for all practical purposes) or will continue to be unemployed or be under-employed. This may be a factor in the judge's decision to award or deny disability, but it will not necessarily prevent you from receiving disability benefits. The disability determination process is usually long, and should not be viewed as a way of generating quick cash.For information regarding your specific circumstances, contact the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213, or seek consultation with a disability attorney.

Why are social security payments late?
Social security payments have been late the last several months because the federal government is inefficient and punitive. Obama is upset that so many people oppose the HUGE deficits his administration has caused, so he has ordered the withholding or delay of vital services, while continuing to spend billions on non-essentials.
