Best Answer

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.
