Yes. Both Social Security and the State of Pennsylvania allow workers to collect unemployment compensation and Social Security benefits at the same time without applying an offset or penalty to either check.
Bear in mind that you have to be actively looking for, and willing to accept, a full-time job, per your unemployment agreement. You can collect retirement benefits as early as age 62, but you can't actually retire if you're also accepting unemployment compensation.
Yes, under certain circumstances, you can collect both worker's compensation and unemployment benefits without penalty in Pennsylvania, depending on the nature of your illness or injury and whether you're able to accept work for which you are qualified. If you're unable to work, you can't draw unemployment benefits because all states require you be ready, willing and able to accept suitable employment immediately.
In order to collect Social Security Disability Benefits, you must be determined "disabled" which is defined by the SSA as unable to perform any type of work.
In order to file for PA Unemployment benefits, you must certify that you are "able and available" for work.
Therefore, they are mutually exclusive. You are either unable to perform any work (disability benefits) or able and available to work (Unemployment benefits).
No. You can collect unemployment only if you lost your job through no fault of your own. Quitting one job for another is only a convenience for you, and not a no-fault separation.
Yes, as long as you qualify for each of them. They are separate and non-conflicting programs.
Yes, if you were fired or laid off you can collect unemployment & it doesn't matter if you're drawing Social Security.
Yes.
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.

Absolutely. It is called your "Retirement Pension". You cannot collect "unemployment insurance" monies if you are retired.
If you were fired because of mental illness, then you should collect disability insurance, rather than unemployment insurance, and it lasts much longer.
To collect SSDI you have to prove you are totally disabled and unable to work. Unemployment compensation requires you to be willing, able, and actively seeking full time work immediately. These two concepts are mutually exclusive, so No, you could not collect both at the same time.
I don't think you can collect unemployment if you QUIT your job to relocate. If the company was relocating to California (or anywhere farther than 50 miles- I think), and you did not want to relocate, then I believe you can get unemployment.
no . never .
To collect unemployment you have to be available for work. So, you would probably NOT be considered disabled to collect under your Disability Policy. For more info check out the State DI and Social Security DI programs.
