turned down for Unemployment benefits

[Oh Boy]

I'm scratching my head here. You are applying for Social Security Disability but you are trying to get a job? Are you disabled or not? If you are disabled why would you think you could get unemployment? Unemployment is for those who are out of work because they were laid off or fired and are ready, willing, able, and physically able to go to work. If you apply for SSD, you are saying you can't do that.
