Florida does not have state disability benefits.
You can get private disability coverage in Florida. Check your policy to see the integration language relating to social security disability. You can collect on both policies at the same time, however the private policies will offset the benefit to a varying degree.
The two programs are different. Social Security is a Federal program that you pay into from your paycheck, as does the employer, and you are eligible to receive after you turn 62 (unless earlier due to being disabled, which is covered under a different part of the program). The longer you delay receiving Social Security the larger the monthly benefit you would get. The amount you receive depends on your age, how many 'quarters' you worked, and the amount of your earnings.
On the other hand, unemployment security, a state program, comes from contributions paid into the program by the employer and the amount he pays in is a percentage of his payroll based on the employer's turn-over rate of employees (the lower the turn-over, the lower the percentage). This way the employer is encouraged to retain employees in order to reduce his costs. The employee, generally, receives unemployment from the state's collected 'employer's unemployment contribution pool', IF he was laid off, i.e. reduction in staff, etc., or was fired without cause (not caught stealing, harassment, drugs, etc.), or other reasons not due to his own actions. Thus you can both draw Social Security while still working (as I had done) or if drawing unemployment because the reason for drawing both are different, from different government agencies, and for different causes.
Yes, because unemployment and Social Security are not in contradiction, as would be Social Security Disability.
can i collect social security and unemployment in florida at the same time
Your unemployment benefit may be reduced if you also receive benefits from Social Security. Social Security has no issues with people receiving income from both sources.

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.
Yes, you can collect both Social Security and unemployment benefits at the same time in Utah, but the state will offset your weekly unemployment check by 50% of the weekly value of your Social Security payments.
Yes, if you qualify for the unemployment and, for Social Security, the only question then is if it is early or for the full benefits
You can collect both Social Security and unemployment security benefits in all 50 states at the same time. Only 4 states (Illinois, Louisiana, Utah, and Virginia) offset unemployment by some part of the Social Security benefit.
Yes, if you meet eligibility requirements for both programs. New York repealed the Social Security offset regulations that reduced unemployment compensation for people who were claiming both benefits. Both Social Security and the State of New York allow workers to collect unemployment and Social Security at the same time without applying a penalty to either check.
Yes, you can collect them both at the same time.
You can generally still collect unemployment while collecting social security, unless it is social security disability...even then you still might be able to. I worked for the Unemployment Office & just an FYI, they do not know if you are on social security and are unable to check, so if you do not say anything, they will never know.
Yes, as long as you qualify for each of them individually.
