In Iowa, you cannot collect unemployment benefits and long-term disability benefits simultaneously. Unemployment benefits are designed for those who are able and available to work, while long-term disability benefits are for individuals unable to work due to a medical condition. If you are receiving long-term disability, you would typically not qualify for unemployment benefits. It's advisable to consult with a local unemployment office or legal expert for specific situations.

Can I collect unemployment and disability benefits at the same time in Iowa?

Yes, it's legal to collect both unemployment and social security disability benefits in Iowa if you qualify under both programs, but you must be willing and able to work and be actively seeking suitable employment. If you were collecting disability benefits while working part-time before losing your job, there is no conflict. You are not eligible for unemployment compensation during any week you're unable to work, whether due to disability or another reason, unless your work search is waived. Iowa grants waivers to people who expect to be recalled by their employer within a certain period of time, and to those participating in an approved educational or vocational training program.

Can you get unemployment while on maternity leave in Iowa?

In Iowa, individuals on maternity leave may not be eligible for unemployment benefits, as these benefits are typically for those who are unemployed and actively seeking work. Maternity leave is generally considered a period of temporary absence from work rather than unemployment. However, if a person is laid off or loses their job while on maternity leave, they may qualify for unemployment benefits. It's best to consult the Iowa Workforce Development for specific guidance related to individual circumstances.
