Can I Receive Unemployment And Social Security Benefits At The Same Time?

Can I receive unemployment benefits monies and my social security benefits at the same time

Hi,

My expertise is limited to Social Security benefits. I can tell you that if you receive unemployment benefits it would have no effect on any Social Security benefits for which you might be eligible. However, I'm not sure if the reverse is true.

Best, Jerry
