Best Answer

In NJ and other states like NJ, in order to qualify for unemployment benefits, you must meet all of the following four criteria: 1. Must be unemployed or working less than full time because of no fault of your own, (so for example if you were fired for misconduct or you quit, you may not qualify for benefits); AND 2. You have to be able and available to work; AND3. You must be actively looking for work; AND 4. You must have worked at least twenty (20) weeks OR earned at least $7150 in the last eighteen (18) months for an employer that pays unemployment taxes. > Hence, if you are disabled which means you are NOT able to work, you would not meet 2. and thus would not qualify for unemployment benefits.

Check your policy for specific details. Some policies will require that you be unable to perform one or more "activities of daily living". Others will require that your doctor indicate that you can't perform the duties of your full time occupation, others any occupation.

If you are a college student can you get money while not being able to work?

No unemployment for students (at least in Michigan) If I said no unemployment for full time students, that should cover all states. As far as disability, yes, you can get disability if you have short term disability insurance. Since this is just for knee surgery, no point in saying how you could get long term disability as you will be fine before that becomes a issue.

Can you collect unemployment while on short-term disability?

Generally you can't collect unemployment while disabled because you have to be ready, willing AND able to go to work immediately for full time. Disability makes that impossible, in most cases. If the time frame and every thing else applies, you might after the disability ends.
