   Disability Insurance does not usually cover unemployment. That is because Disability Insurance pays out based on whether or not you CAN'T work, while Unemployment pays out based on whether or not you CAN (and are willing to) work. In fact, if you apply for unemployment payments while you are applying for disability payments, the DI company may deny your claim due to conflicting statements.
