Depending on the interpretation, the below Related Link, Illinois U.I. Act, part XI (Claimant Benefits), Section F.1., seem to say that if you left work voluntarily due to not being physically able to perform the work (with physician's certification to that effect), you might be eligible for unemployment. Otherwise, if it was work related injury/illness you might be eligible for workers compensation.

Can you collect unemployment and welfare at the same time in California?

Yes, if you recently lost a job, and have very low income and few resources, you may qualify for both unemployment and welfare benefits. If you are approved for unemployment, welfare will count the unemployment benefits as "unearned" income, and the benefit will count against your welfare benefits. Both unemployment and welfare require you to look for work. Welfare can grant a deferral from the work requirement if you are unable to work, but the unemployment agency will deny your claim if you are unable to work. The exception to this is if you became disabled after becoming eligible for unemployment, or if you were disabled due to an illness or injury not caused by your job

Under what conditions can you collect unemployment?

Unemployment Insurance (UI) is granted to those individuals who were laid off (usually because of lack of work) from their job. If you quit a job of your own accord, you may still be able to collect under certain conditions.Another answer:In most states, depending on the reason you quit it IS possible to collect unemployment for quitting, such as spouse's relocation/transfer, harassment/abuse at work, hazardous conditions of employment, domestic violence, etc. Check with your own state's employment security office for clarification.


Can you collect Social Security and unemployment in Washington state?

No. They ask each week, were you ABLE and available for work. If you are unable to work then you are supposed to notify them and they WILL discontinue your benefits until you notify them that you ARE ABLE to work again. Sometimes a Doctor's note is required to get back ON unemployment, depending on the injury or illness. IMO... If ou are dependent on unemploment right now... I would not tell them about any injuries or illness unless it's really, really serious. They will cut you off. This last part, of course, is just my personal opinion. YMMV.
