Am I Eligible For Unemployment Insurance?

Hi, I am on SSDI, I work part time. Since the covid 19 outbreak I have had my hours cut drastically. Sometimes I have 8 days off then one day on, then 8 more days off. Am I eligible for unemployment insurance? Thank you

Hi,

I'm sorry, but my expertise is limited to Social Security benefits so I'm not able to answer questions about unemployment insurance. However, I can tell you that if you do qualify for unemployment insurance, it would have no adverse effect on your Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits.

Best, Jerry
