The states of Illinois and Louisiana offset unemployment benefits by a significant portion of a recipient's Social Security benefits. In Illinois, half of a recipient's weekly social security benefit is deducted from the recipient's weekly unemployment payment. In 2010, Utah let its offset law lapse after the state's court ruled against a similar workers comp case on the basis of age discrimination and the territory of Puerto Rico repealed its offset law. Previously, South Dakota and Virginia repealed their offset law, but if their unemployment funds fall below a specific level, those states can deduct unemployment benefits from older workers who receive social security payments. Illinois AARP and Virginia AARP have made full repeal of the social security offset law a priority.

If you are collecting retirement benefits can you also collect unemployment benefits?
Theoretically yes, the government will take what you are getting in pension away from the amount they think a person needs to live on per week and if there is a difference they will make this up as the unemployment payment. If your weekly pension income is more than the amount, you will not get any unemployment payment but you will be credited with your national insurance stamp each week (you will need 30 years of stamps to get a full state pension at state retirement age). You will also be entitled to the other unemployment concessions.
