To qualify for disability income, an individual must have a physical or mental disability that prevents them from working as they would without the disability. You many have to pass a test to determine if you are eligible for benefits generally, but baring that, benefits are given to all Americans with a mental or physical disability. http://www.ssdrc.com/disabilityquestions3-24.html

ALL of the other sources of worldwide income that you may be receiving or could be receiving that is NOT for your DISABILITY.

In Texas can a person accept private disability and unemployment payments at the same time?

No. I was recently laid off while on disability. The law in Texas says you have to be able to physically be able to work so if you are on disability you can't work. This is NOT correct! Social Security Disability allows you to work even if you are 100% disabled! They limit how much you can earn. (Your unemployment income will NOT reduce your disability payment because SS does not consider it to be employment income!)
