You can start getting your benefits as early as age 62. That may not be a good idea, however, as they are adjusted for age. So you will get less money than if you can hold out later.

If you are eligible for social security retirement (and I think for your age group the eligible age is 65), go ahead and apply for it while you apply for unemployment at the same time. The unemployment will come in first, and receipt of it shouldn't affect your retirement benefits. You can earn as much as you want outside of retirement.
Can you apply for Social Security at age 59?
No, the earliest you can collect Social Security retirement benefits is age 62. While you may be able to retire at age 55, you will need to have other resources to draw from until you are eligible for Social Security. Retiring at age 55 is difficult for most people. Not only are not you not eligible for Social Security for many more years, but in general, you can't access your retirement accounts until you reach age 59 1/2. Also, you don't qualify for Medicare until age 65. All of these combined make it very difficult for the average person to retire at 55. If you are retiring because of disability and qualify for Social Security disability benefits, you can collect those before age 62.
