Best Answer

Yes, if you meet eligibility requirements for both programs.

Connecticut repealed the Social Security offset regulations that reduced unemployment compensation for people who were claiming both benefits. Both Social Security and the State of Connecticut allow workers to collect unemployment and Social Security at the same time without applying a penalty to either check.

Yes.

Modification:

You might collect both IF you are physically, mentally able and available according to "Basic Eligibility Requirements" on page 4 of the Related Link below. This would mean the Social Security Disability must not be too severe (and SSD investigators thoroughly check out a claimant)
