In the state of Kansas, and in most states, I believe, in the United States, you are eligible for unemployment under the following circumstances:

> You lose your job due to lay off.

> Your previous employer contributed to the unemployment system.

and

> Your previous employer contributed to the system during a particular quarter.

You may not get unemployment under either of the following circumstances:

> You were fired for cause.

> You quit without cause.

I tell others to file for unemployment in any case because in most cases "fired for cause" is not handled in a way to make it official to the state. Often you are simply told not to show up anymore. If you quit for a reason this is also allowed. You may have been mistreated, the job was unsafe, etc.

What most people do not realize, and I know this because this happens all too often in construction, is sitting at home for a week or more is the same as a layoff for lack of work. You can draw unemployment under the layoff rule even though you expect to return to work. If you know for certain you will be going back to work and know WHEN, you can often draw unemployment without looking for other work.

You can file for SSDI if you are receiving workers' compensation benefits.

SSDI benefits may be offset (reduced) by workers' comp wage benefits, but the fact that you are receiving work comp does not prevent you from being able to apply for and receive SSDI.
