FROM:           JOSÉ JAVIER RODRÍGUEZ
                Assistant Secretary

SUBJECT:        Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Adult, Dislocated Worker,
                and Youth Activities Program Allotments for Program Year (PY) 2024; PY
                2024 Allotments for the Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES)
                Program; and PY 2024 Allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States
                and Outlying Areas

1. Purpose. To provide information to states and outlying areas on WIOA Title I Adult,
   Dislocated Worker, and Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2024; PY 2024
   allotments for the Wagner-Peyser Act ES Program, as required by section 6(b)(5) of the
   Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended; and the allotments of Workforce Information Grants to
   states for PY 2024.

2. Action Requested. States and outlying areas must follow the requirements in this guidance
   to obtain the federal funds needed to manage their programs.

3. Summary and Background.

   a. Summary - This document provides grantees with guidance and information including:

      • How to obtain the federal funds covered by the TEGL and financial reporting
        requirements;
      • The potential for reallotment of PY 2024 funds based on unobligated balances of PY
        2023 funds in excess of 20 percent of their allotment at the end of PY 2023 (6/30/24);
      • Requirements when calculating sub-state allocations to local areas;
      • Funds set aside for evaluations and program integrity;
      • Salary caps at the Executive Level II;
      • Waivers of the competition requirement for outlying areas; and
      • Authority for outlying areas to submit an application for a single consolidated grant for
        Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth funds.

   b. Background - On March 23, 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024,
      Pub. L. 118-47 was enacted (from this point forward, referred to as “the Act”). The Act
  RESCISSIONS                                              EXPIRATION DATE
  None                                                     Continuing

makes PY 2024 Youth Activities funds available for obligation on April 1, 2024, and
funds the WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker programs in two separate appropriations.
The first appropriations for the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs become available
for obligation on July 1, 2024; this portion is commonly referred to as “base” funds. The
second appropriations for the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs become available
for obligation on October 1, 2024; this portion is commonly referred to as “advance”
funds because they are provided in the appropriations act passed during the fiscal year
immediately before the fiscal year when the funds are available. For example, funds for
PY 2024 that will be made available on October 1, 2024, were appropriated during FY
2024, but not made available until FY 2025, and are called the FY 2025 “advance” funds.
See Attachment A for details.

The Act, Division D, Title I, secs. 106(b) and 107, allows the Secretary of Labor
(Secretary) to set aside up to 0.5 percent of each discretionary appropriation for activities
related to program integrity and 0.75 percent of most operating funds for evaluations. For
2024, as authorized by the Act, the Department has set aside $8,322,000 of the Training
and Employment Services (TES) and $2,190,000 of the State Unemployment Insurance
and Employment Services Operations (SUIESO) appropriations impacted in this TEGL
for these activities. ETA reserved these funds from the WIOA Adult, Youth, Dislocated
Worker, Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service, and Workforce Information Grant
program budgets. Any funds not utilized for these reserve activities will be provided to
the states.

ETA applied the reductions for evaluations and program integrity from the WIOA Adult
and Dislocated Worker programs only to the FY 2025 “advance” funding levels; “base”
funding is disseminated at the full amount appropriated in the Act.

The Act also specifies that the Secretary may reserve no more than 10 percent of the
Dislocated Worker National Reserve funds to provide technical assistance and carry out
additional activities related to the transition to WIOA. Additionally, salary caps are
imposed under the Act, Division D, Title I, sec. 105. The funds provided to grantees in
these allotments must not be used by a recipient or sub -recipient to pay the salary and
bonuses of an individual, either as direct costs or indirect costs, at a ra te in excess of
Executive Level II. The rates of basic pay for the Executive Schedule are found at
https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries-wages/. States also may
establish lower salary caps. See https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/advisories/training-and-employment-guidance-letter-no-05-06, “Implementing the Salary and Bonus Limitations
in Public Law 109-234.”

WIOA allotments for states are based on formula provisions contained in WIOA (see
Attachment B for WIOA and Wagner-Peyser Act formula descriptions). The Act waives
the competition requirement regarding funding to outlying areas (i.e., American Samoa,
Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the
United States Virgin Islands). For PY 2024, outlying area grant amounts are based on the
administrative formula determined by the Secretary that was used under the Workforce
Investment Act.

       Additionally, the Act allows outlying areas to submit a single application according to the
       requirements established by the Secretary for a consolidated grant for Adult, Youth, and
       Dislocated Worker funds. Subject to approval of the grant application and other reporting
       requirements of the Secretary, the Act allows outlying areas receiving a consolidated grant
       to use those funds interchangeably between Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker
       programs or activities. Outlying areas must follow steps identified in Appendix VII if they
       want to consolidate those funds into a single grant. However, if outlying areas are not
       consolidating the Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth funds they must follow steps
       identified in Appendix VI.

       WIOA specifically included the Republic of Palau as an outlying area, except during any
       period for which the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education determine that a
       Compact of Free Association is in effect and contains provisions for training an d
       education assistance prohibiting the assistance provided under WIOA. No such
       determinations prohibiting assistance have been made (WIOA sec. 3(45)(B)). WIOA
       updated the Compact of Free Association Amendments of 2003, Pub. L. 108 -188
       (December 17, 2003) so that the Republic of Palau remained eligible for WIOA Title I
       funding. See 48 U.S.C. 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix). The National Defense Authorization Act for
       Fiscal Year 2018, Pub. L. 115-91 (December 12, 2017), Division A, Title XII, Subtitle F,
       sec. 1259C(c) authorized WIOA Title I funding to Palau through FY 2024.

       In addition to this TEGL, ETA will publish the allotments and descriptions of the
       allotment formulas in the Federal Register. In this Federal Register notice, ETA will invite
       comments on the allotment formula for outlying areas.

Appendix I – WIOA Youth Allotment Activities

State WIOA Youth Activities Funds: Title I--Chapter 2--Youth Activities.

   A. State Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for WIOA Youth Activities totals
      $948,130,000. After reducing the appropriation by $3,131,000 for set asides authorized
      by the Act and reserving $925,200 for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW)
      Youth, $944,073,800 is available for Youth Activities, which includes $14,161,107 for
      Native American grantees, $927,587,911 for states, and $2,324,782 for outlying areas.
      The WIOA Youth formula has a section in WIOA for a reservation for MSFW Youth if
      the appropriation exceeds $925,000,000. Per WIOA 127(a)(1), ETA reserved 4 percent
      ($925,200) of the excess amount for MSFW Youth. Note that under WIOA the basis for
      calculating the 1/4 of one percent reserved for outlying areas is based on the total
      available for Youth Activities (after set asides authorized by the Act) after the MSFW
      Youth and Native American reservations. The Native American reservation is calculated
      on the total available for Youth Activities (after set asides authorized by the Act) after the
      MSFW Youth reservation. Attachment D contains a breakdown of the WIOA Youth
      Activities program allotments by state for PY 2024 and provides a comparison of these
      allotments to PY 2023. Please note that the Department will provide information on the
      Native American Youth allotments in a separate Training and Employment Guidance
      Letter (TEGL).

       Formula funds are allotted for PY 2024 Youth Activities among the states, in accordance
       with WIOA formula requirements. For reference, the Department allots these funds to
       the states based on the following data factors (summarized slightly):

       1. The average number of unemployed individuals for Areas of Substantial
          Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2022 through June 2023, as
          prepared by the states under the direction of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), in
          each state compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in ASUs in all
          states;

       2. The number of excess unemployed individuals or excess unemployed individuals in
          ASUs (depending on which is higher) averages for the same 12 -month period, July
          2022 through June 2023, compared to the total excess individuals or ASU excess in all
          states; and

       3. The number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college students not in
          the workforce and military) from special tabulations of data from the American
          Community Survey (ACS) in each state compared to the total number of
          disadvantaged youth in all states. The Census Bureau collected the data used in the
          special tabulations for disadvantaged youth between January 1, 201 6 and December
          31, 2020.

       Since the total amount available for states in PY 2024 is below the required $1 billion
       threshold specified in WIOA sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV), which was also the case in PY

Appendix I                                  -1-

       2023, the Department did not apply the WIOA additional minimum provisions (see
       Attachment B). Instead, the minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment
       percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum floor apply, as required by WIOA. WIOA
       also maintains that no state may receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of the
       allotment percentage for the state for the previous year.

   B. PY 2024 Funding WIOA Agreement/Notice of Award (NOAs). Youth program funds
      are available to states to use once the PY 2024 WIOA Annual Funding Agreement/NOA
      is complete.

   C. Sub-State Allocations. States must distribute WIOA Youth Activities funds among local
      workforce areas (subject to reservation of the 15 percent limitation for statewide
      workforce employment and training activities) in keeping with the provisions of WIOA
      sec. 128 and their approved Unified or Combined WIOA State Plan. In allocating Youth
      Activities funds to local areas for PY 2024, states may use either the allocation formula
      described in WIOA sec.128(b)(2) or the discretionary allocation formula in WIOA sec.
      128(b)(3) and ensure the state policy articulated in the approved State Plan remains
      consistent with this guidance. Consistent with sec. 182(e) of WIOA, sub-state allocations
      must be made available to local areas not later than 30 days after the date funds are made
      available to the state or 7 days after the date the local plan for the area is approved,
      whichever is later. See Attachment C for a description of sub-state allocation formulas.

       1. Allocation Formula. Thirty-three and 1/3 percent of the total funds available for local
          allocations are allocated based on each local area’s relative share of each data factor
          listed below.

              a. The relative number of unemployed individuals in Areas of Substantial
                 Unemployment (ASUs) in each local area, compared to the total number of
                 unemployed individuals in ASUs in all local areas in the state. For this factor,
                 the timeframe for comparison is the 12-month period, July 2022 to June 2023.

              b. The relative excess number of unemployed individuals in each local area,
                 compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all local
                 areas in the state. See the definition of “excess number” below which requires
                 a comparison of the excess unemployed in ASUs with excess unemployed in
                 all areas. For this factor, the timeframe for comparison is the 12 -month
                 period, July 2022 to June 2023.

              c. The relative number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college
                 students not in the workforce and military), in each local area, compared to
                 the total number of disadvantaged youth in all local areas in the state. The
                 number of disadvantaged youth comes from special tabulations of data from
                 the ACS prepared in accordance with the definition provided in WIOA. The
                 Census Bureau collected this data between January 1, 2016 and December 31,
                 2020.

Appendix I                                 -2-

             For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Youth Activities sub -state allocation
             formula, states must use data made available by BLS (as described in Local Area
             Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) Technical Memorandum No. S-23-12).

             The term “excess number” means, used with respect to the excess number of
             unemployed individuals within a local area, the higher of (i) the number that
             represents the number of unemployed individuals in excess of 4.5 percent of the
             civilian labor force in the local area; or (ii) the number that represents the number of
             unemployed individuals in excess of 4.5 percent of the civilian labor force in ASUs in
             such local area.

             In order to determine the number of disadvantaged youth for the sub -state Youth
             formula, states must use the special tabulations of ACS data available at
             https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults.
             ETA obtained updated data for use in PY 2023 and the same data must be used in PY
             2024. ETA published this information in TEGL No. 1-23, Updated Disadvantaged
             Youth and Adult Data for use in Program Year (PY) 2023 and future Workforce
             Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Youth and Adult Within -State Allocation
             Formulas.

             States must utilize a minimum percentage (or stop loss) to ensure that no local area
             receives an allocation percentage that is less than 90 percent of the average
             allocation percentage received by the local area for the previous two years. An
             allocation percentage is the local area’s share or percentage of funds allocated to all
             local areas. States must not use 90 percent of the average amount allocated to the
             local area for the last two years. States must obtain amounts necessary to increase
             allocations to local areas to comply with the minimum percentage requirement by
             proportionately reducing the allocations to be made to other local areas.

             States must not use a maximum percentage (or stop gain).

       2. Discretionary Formula. Alternatively, a state may use a discretionary formula. When
          using a discretionary formula, a state distributes a portion that is at least 70 percent of
          the funds according to the allocation formula described in subparagraph C.1 of this
          Appendix, and the remainder on the basis of a formula that incorporates additional
          factors relating to:

                a. excess youth poverty in urban, rural, and suburban areas; and

                b. excess unemployment above the state average in urban, rural, and suburban
                   local areas.

             Of the portion of funds distributed according to the allocation formula described in
             subparagraph C.1, a state must not assign unequal percentages to the ASU, excess
             unemployment, and disadvantaged data factors. These three data factors carry equal
             weights and must not total less than 70 percent of the formula.

Appendix I                                    -3-

             Of the remainder, states may determine the percentage to allocate to data factors
             reflecting excess youth poverty and excess unemployment above the state average.

             States also have flexibility in choosing what data they want to use related to youth
             poverty and excess unemployment above the state average. States may not reuse the
             allocation formula data factors (ASU, excess unemployment, and disadvantaged
             youth) to distribute the remainder. Using data factors such as high school dropout
             rate may be an acceptable reflection of youth poverty, but the state must articulate
             how such factors relate to youth poverty in the State Plan.

             For the portion of funds distributed according to the allocation formula (which
             represent at least 70 percent of the distributed funds), the state must employ the
             minimum percentage (or stop loss), as described in subparagraph C.1 on the
             allocation formula. The state may choose whether to apply the minimum percentage
             to the remainder portion of funds that the state distributes according to the
             discretionary formula (which represent not more than 30 percent of the distributed
             funds).

             The State Board must develop the discretionary formula, and the Secretary must
             approve it as part of the State Plan.

   D. Transfer of Funds. Local workforce areas do not have the authority to transfer funds to or
       from the Youth Activities program.

   E. Re-allotment of Funds. WIOA sec. 127(c) requires the Secretary of Labor to recapture
       and reallot Youth Activities program formula funds based on state obligation levels at the
       end of the first program year of use (ETA reallots in accordance with 20 CFR 683.135).
       PY 2023 funds are only available for Federal obligation until the end of the program year,
       and so the Secretary does not have authority to reobligate PY 20 23 funds after the first
       program year. Therefore, any reallotment of funds requires the use of PY 2024 funds. In
       other words, recapture and reallotment of PY 2024 funds is based on obligation levels of
       PY 2023 funds at the end of PY 2023.

       1. The obligation threshold a state must meet to avoid recapture under WIOA sec.
          127(c)(2) is 80 percent. The term obligation is defined at 2 CFR 200.71. The funds
          that a state allocates to a local area are state obligations. WIOA requires states to
          allocate at least 85 percent of Youth Activities funds to local areas. Therefore, by
          making the required local allocations, the state has obligated more than 80 percent of
          its PY 2023 funds and no further action is required regarding reallotment of PY 2024
          funds.

       2. States report the aggregate amount of allocations to the local areas on the Local
          Youth ETA-9130 (B) financial reports, along with obligations by local areas of those
          funds. Additional guidance and information on the access and use of the PMS
          Financial Reporting System for the submission of future ETA-9130 quarterly

Appendix I                                  -4-

             financial reports is provided in Training and Employment Notice (TEN) No. 16 -22.
             The PMS Financial Reporting System training sessions will be recorded and available
             for future reference.

   F. Small State Minimum Allotment States. WIOA sec. 129(a)(4)(B) allows a state that
      receives a small state minimum allotment under WIOA sec. 127(b)(1) (relating to the
      youth formula program) or 132(b)(1) (relating to the adult formula program) to submit a
      request for approval to the Department to decrease the percentage of funds spent on out-
      of-school youth (OSY) to not less than 50 percent in a local area. To determine if a state
      receives a small state minimum allotment, review the PY 2024 columns in Attachments
      D and E. States that meet the criteria for PY 2024 as a minimum allotment state are those
      states that receive a PY 2024 WIOA Youth allotment of $2,318,970 or receive a PY 2024
      WIOA Adult allotment of $2,202,724. If a state wishes to submit a small state OSY
      exception request, they must submit the request for PY 2024 by September 30, 2024.
      The request must be submitted to the appropriate ETA Regional Administrator and
      contain the required justification outlined in the WIOA final rule at 20 CFR 681.410(b).

Appendix I                                  -5-

Appendix II – WIOA Adult Allotment Activities

State Adult Employment and Training Activities Funds: Title I--Chapter 3--Adult and
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities.

   A. State Allotments. The total appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2024 is
      $885,649,000. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,351,000 for set asides
      authorized by the Act, $883,298,000 remains for Adult Activities, of which $881,089,755
      is for states and $2,208,245 is for outlying areas. Attachment E shows the PY 2024
      Adult Employment and Training Activities allotments and a state-by-state comparison of
      the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023 allotments.

       The three formula data factors that the Department uses to distribute WIOA Adult
       Activities funds among the states are the same as those used for the Youth Activities
       formula, except that data is used for the number of disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72,
       excluding college students not in the workforce and military), rather than the number of
       disadvantaged youth. Since the total amount available for the Adult Activities program
       for states in PY 2024 is below the required $960 million threshold specified in WIOA
       sec. 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV), as was also the case in PY 2023, the WIOA additional
       minimum provisions (See Attachment B) are not applicable. Instead, as required by
       WIOA, the minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25
       percent state minimum floor apply. Like for the Youth program, WIOA also provides
       that no state may receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of the previous year
       allotment percentage for the state.

   B. PY 2024 Funding WIOA Agreement/NOAs. For PY 2024, Congress appropriated funds
      for this program in two portions: $173,649,000 is available for obligation on July 1, 2024
      (PY 2024), and $712,000,000 is available for obligation on October 1, 2024 (FY 2025).
      After reductions associated with evaluations and program integrity, the amount available
      for Adult Activities on July 1, 2024 (PY 2024) is $173,649,000, and on October 1, 2024
      is $709,649,000. The Department prorated allotments to states and outlying areas based
      on these total amounts and will issue two NOAs (subject to the state submitting an
      approved State Plan under secs. 102 or 103 of WIOA). The first NOA covers the period
      starting July 1, 2024, under the PY 2024 WIOA grant agreement, and the other for
      October 1, 2024, also under the PY 2024 WIOA grant agreement (see Attachment F).

   C. Sub-State Allocations. States must distribute WIOA Adult Activities funds for PY 2024
      allotments among local workforce areas (subject to reservation of the 15 percent
      limitation for statewide employment and training activities) in accordance with the
      provisions in WIOA section 133 and the approved State Plan. States must calculate the
      up to 15 percent available for statewide activities on the total allotment for PY 20 24. In
      allocating WIOA Adult funds to local areas for PY 2024, states may use either the
      allocation formula described in WIOA sec. 133(b)(2)(A) or the discretionary allocation
      formula in WIOA sec. 133(b)(3). Also, states must ensure the state policy articulated in
      the approved WIOA Unified or Combined State Plan remains consistent with this

Appendix II                                -1-

       guidance. See Attachment C for a description of sub-state allocation formulas.

       1. Allocation Formula. Thirty-three and 1/3 percent of the total funds available for local
          allocations are allocated based on each local area’s relative share of each data factor
          listed below.

                 1. The relative number of unemployed individuals in ASUs in each local area,
                    compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in ASUs in all local
                    areas in the state. For this factor, the timeframe for comparison is the 12 -
                    month period, July 2022 to June 2023.

                 2. The relative excess number of unemployed individuals in each local area,
                    compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all local
                    areas in the state. See the definition of “excess number” below which requires
                    a comparison of the excess unemployed in ASUs with excess unemployed in
                    all areas. For this factor, the timeframe for comparison is the 12 -month
                    period, July 2022 to June 2023.

                 3. The relative number of disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding college
                    students not in the workforce and military) in each local area, compared to the
                    total number of disadvantaged adults in all local areas in the state. The
                    Census Bureau collected the data used in the special tabulations for
                    disadvantaged adults between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2020.

              For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Adult Activities sub -state allocation
              formula, states should use data made available by BLS (as described in LAUS
              Technical Memorandum No. S-23-12).

              The term “excess number” means, used with respect to the excess number of
              unemployed individuals within a local area, the higher of (i) the number that
              represents the number of unemployed individuals in excess of 4.5 percent of the
              civilian labor force in the local area; or (ii) the number that represents the number of
              unemployed individuals in excess of 4.5 percent of the civilian labor force in ASUs in
              such local area.

              In order to determine the number of disadvantaged adults for the sub-state Adult
              formula, states must use the special tabulations of ACS data available at
              https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults.
              ETA obtained updated data for use in PY 2023 and the same data must be used in PY
              2024. ETA published this information in TEGL No. 1-23, Updated Disadvantaged
              Youth and Adult Data for use in Program Year (PY) 2023 and future Workforce
              Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Youth and Adult Within -State Allocation
              Formulas.

              States must utilize a minimum percentage (or stop loss) to ensure that no local area
              receives an allocation percentage that is less than 90 percent of the average allocation

Appendix II                                    -2-

              percentage of the local area for the previous two years. An allocation percentage is
              the local area’s share or percentage of funds allocated to all local areas. States must
              not use 90 percent of the average amount allocated to the local area for the last two
              years. States must obtain amounts necessary to increase allocations to local areas to
              comply with the minimum percentage requirement by proportionately reducing the
              allocations to be made to other local areas.

              States must not use a maximum percentage (or stop gain).

              In accordance with sec. 182(e) of WIOA, states must make sub-state allocations
              available to local areas not later than 30 days after the date f unds are made available
              to the state, or 7 days after the date the local plan for the area is approved, whichever
              is later.

       2. Discretionary Formula. Alternatively, a state may use a discretionary formula. When
          using a discretionary formula, a state distributes a portion that is at least 70 percent of
          the funds according to the allocation formula described in subparagraph C.1 of this
          Appendix, and the remainder on the basis of a formula that incorporates additional
          factors related to:

                1. excess poverty in urban, rural, and suburban areas, and

                2. excess unemployment above the state average in urban, rural, and suburban
                   local areas.

              Of the portion of funds distributed according to the allocation formula described in
              subparagraph C.1, a state must not assign unequal percentages to the ASU, excess
              unemployment, and disadvantaged data factors. These three data factors carry equal
              weights and must total at least 70 percent of the formula.

              Of the remainder, states may determine the percentage to allocate to data factors
              reflecting excess poverty and excess unemployment above the state average.

              States also have flexibility in choosing the data they want to use related to poverty
              and excess unemployment above the state average. States may not reuse the
              allocation formula data factors (ASU, excess unemployment, and disadvantaged
              adults) to distribute the remainder. Using data factors not directly describing poverty
              or excess unemployment may be acceptable, but the state must articulate how such
              factors relate to the statutory requirements in the State Plan.

              The discretionary formula must also employ a minimum percentage, as described in
              subparagraph C.1 on the allocation formula. The minimum percentage may be
              applied to the 70 percent (or greater) portion or to the entire allocation.

              The State Board must develop the discretionary formula, and the Secretary must
              approve it as part of the State Plan.

Appendix II                                    -3-

   D. Transfers of Funds. WIOA sec. 133(b)(4) provides the authority for local workforce
      areas, with approval of the Governor, to transfer up to 100 percent of the Adult Activities
      funds for expenditure on Dislocated Worker Activities, and up to 100 percent of
      Dislocated Worker Activities funds for expenditure on Adult Activities.

   E. Re-allotment of Funds. WIOA sec. 132(c) requires the Secretary of Labor to recapture
      and reallot Adult Activities program formula funds based on state obligation levels at the
      end of the first program year of use (ETA reallots in accordance with 20 CFR 683.135).
      PY 2023 funds are only available for Federal obligation until the end of the program year,
      and so the Secretary does not have authority to re-obligate PY 2023 funds after the first
      program year. Therefore, any re-allotment of funds requires the use of PY 2024 funds.
      In other words, re-allotment of PY 2024 funds is based on obligation levels of PY 2023
      funds at the end of PY 2023.
       1. The obligation threshold a State must meet to avoid recapture under WIOA sec.
          132(c)(2) is 80 percent. The term obligation is defined at 2 CFR 200.71. The funds
          that a state allocates to a local area are state obligations. WIOA requires states to
          allocate at least 85 percent of Adult Activities funds to local areas. Therefore, by
          making the required local allocations, the state has obligated more than 80 percent of
          its PY 2023 funds and no further action is required regarding re-allotment of PY 2024
          funds.

       2. States report aggregate allocations to the local areas on the Local Adult ETA 9130
          (D) financial reports, along with obligations by local areas of those funds. Additional
          guidance and information on the access and use of the PMS Financial Reporting
          System for the submission of future ETA-9130 quarterly financial reports is provided
          in TEN No. 16-22. The PMS Financial Reporting System training sessions will be
          recorded and available for future reference.

Appendix III – WIOA Dislocated Worker Allotment Activities

State Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Funds: Title I--Chapter 3--Adult and
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities.

The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker Activities in PY 2024 totals $1,396,412,000.
The total appropriation includes formula funds for the states, while the National Reserve is used
for National Dislocated Worker Grants, technical assistance and training, demonstration projects,
Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities, Community College Grants, and the outlying
areas’ Dislocated Worker allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $ 2,840,000 for
set asides authorized by the Act, a total of $1,393,572,000 remains available for Dislocated
Worker Activities. The amount available for outlying areas is $3,483,930, leaving $297,375,070
for the National Reserve and a total of $1,092,713,000 available for states.

  A. State Allotments. Attachment G shows the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker Activities
     allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023
     allotments.

       WIOA prescribes different data factors for the federal allotment of Dislocated Worker
       funds by the Department to the states, and for the sub -state allocation of Dislocated
       Worker funds by the Governor within a state. The Department has allotted the PY 2024
       Dislocated Worker program state allotments among the states in accordance with the
       factors required by WIOA. For reference, the three data factors that the Department
       considers in allocating these funds to the states are (summarized slightly):

       1. The relative number of unemployed individuals in each state, compared to the total
          number of unemployed individuals in all states. For this factor, the timeframe for
          comparison is the 12-month period, October 2022 through September 2023.

       2. The relative number of excess unemployed individuals in each state, compared to the
          total excess number of unemployed individuals in all states. For this factor, the
          timeframe for comparison is the 12-month period, October 2022 through September
          2023. No comparison to ASU excess is performed for this data factor.

       3. The relative number of individuals in each state who have been unemployed for 15
          weeks or more, compared to the total number of individuals in all states who have
          been unemployed for 15 weeks or more. For this factor, the timeframe for
          comparison is the 12-month period, October 2022 through September 2023.

       WIOA sec. 132(b)(2)(B)(iii)(I) requires the Dislocated Worker formula to adopt a 90
       percent minimum of the prior year allotment percentage (stop loss). WIOA also provides
       that no state may receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of the allotment
       percentage for the state for the previous year (stop gain) under section
       132(b)(2)(B)(iii)(II).

Appendix III                               -1-

  B.   PY 2024 Funding WIOA Agreement/NOAs. For PY 2024, Congress appropriated funds
       for this program in two portions for both formula funds and National Reserve funds. For
       state formula funds, $235,553,000 is available for obligation on July 1, 2024 (PY 2024),
       and $860,000,000 is available for obligation on October 1, 2024 (FY 2025). For the
       National Reserve, which includes funds for the outlying areas, $100,859,000 is available
       for obligation on July 1, 2024 (PY 2024), and $200,000,000 is available for obligation on
       October 1, 2024 (FY 2025). After reductions associated with evaluations and program
       integrity, the amount available for state formula funds on July 1, 2024 is $235,553,000
       and on October 1, 2024 is $857,160,000. For the National Reserve, the amount available
       on July 1, 2024 is $100,859,000 and on October 1, 2024 is $200,000,000. Allotments to
       states and outlying areas are prorated based on the two amounts for formula funds and
       National Reserve, respectively. ETA will issue allotments in two NOAs: one for July 1,
       2024, under the PY 2024 WIOA grant agreement, and the other for October 1, 2024, also
       under the PY 2024 WIOA grant agreement (see Attachment H).

  C.   Sub-State Allocations. States will distribute Dislocated Worker Activities funds for PY
       2024 among local workforce areas (subject to the Governor’s reservation of up to 25
       percent for statewide Rapid Response activities under WIOA sec. 133(a)(2) and the 15
       percent limitation for statewide employment and training activities), in accordance with
       the provisions in WIOA section 133 and the approved State Plan. States must calculate
       up to 15 percent for statewide activities on the total allotment for PY 20 24.

       In allocating WIOA Dislocated Worker funds to local areas for PY 20 24, states must
       ensure the state policy articulated in the approved State Plan remains consistent with this
       guidance. See Attachment C for a description of sub-state allocation formulas.
       Governors continue to prescribe the Dislocated Worker formula for sub-state allocations.

       Under WIOA, the data factors that must be included are:

       • insured unemployment data,
       • unemployment concentrations,
       • plant closing and mass layoff data,
       • declining industries data,
       • farmer-rancher economic hardship data, and
       • long-term unemployment data.

       A state may assign zero weight to a factor only where the state is able to demonstrate it
       does not have an appropriate data source to accurately reflect state needs for a given data
       factor. For example, the Bureau of Labor Statistics no longer produces th e plant closing
       and mass layoff data, one of the six data factors WIOA requires. ETA recognizes that an
       accurate source of such data is no longer available at the national level. Some states have
       sub-state administrative data available, and others do not. In order to assign a weight of
       zero to a data factor, such as the plant closing and mass layoff data factor, the state must
       include the following information in their WIOA Unified or Combined State Plan:

Appendix III                                -2-

       • An inventory of available national or state-level data sources germane to the data
         factor.
       • A discussion of why the available data sources are inadequate for the purposes of
         assigning a weight to a given data factor; and
       • A description of how the Governor’s formula is appropriate to distribute funds
         equitably throughout the state.

       (Note that weighting a data factor at zero percent is not allowable under any other
       circumstance.)

       WIOA requires the use of a minimum percentage (or stop loss) (see WIOA sec.
       133(b)(2)(B)(iii)). A local workforce area must receive an allocation percentage that is
       no less than 90 percent of the average allocation percentage of the local area for the
       two preceding years. In the event of a shortage of funds, states must obtain the amounts
       necessary to increase the allocations to local areas to comply with this provision by
       proportionately reducing the allocations to other local areas. The minimum percentage
       methodology states use for Dislocated Worker funds is the same minimum percentage
       methodology used in the sub-state Youth and Adult allocation formulas. States are not
       required to use a maximum percentage (or stop gain) but may use one if desired.

  D. Transfers of Funds. WIOA sec. 133(b)(4) provides the authority for local workforce
     areas, with approval of the Governor, to transfer up to 100 percent of the Dislocated
     Worker Activities funds for expenditure on Adult Activities, and up to 100 percent of
     Adult Activities funds for expenditure on Dislocated Worker Activities.

  E.   Re-allotment of Funds. WIOA sec. 132(c) requires the Secretary of Labor to recapture
       and reallot Dislocated Worker program formula funds based on state obligation levels at
       the end of the first program year of use (ETA reallots in accordance with 20 CFR
       683.135). PY 2023 funds are only available for Federal obligation until the end of the
       program year, and so the Secretary does not have authority to re-obligate PY 2023 funds
       after the first program year. Therefore, any re-allotment of funds requires the use of PY
       2024 funds. In other words, the Department will reallot PY 2024 Dislocated Worker
       formula funds among states during PY 2024 based on state obligations of PY 2023 funds
       made during PY 2023. Likewise, obligation of PY 2024 funds will impact recapture and
       reallotment of PY 2025 funding.

       1. WIOA sec. 134(a)(2)(A)(ii) gives states the flexibility to use PY 20 23 Rapid
          Response funds that are not obligated by the end of PY 2023 for statewide activities.
          Per WIOA sec. 132(c), states must still obligate 80 percent of their PY 20 23
          Dislocated Worker program formula funds, which includes Rapid Response funds, by
          June 30, 2024 or potentially have PY 2024 funds recaptured and re-allotted to states
          who have obligated 80 percent of their PY 2023 funds.

       2. The term obligation is defined at 2 CFR 200.71. The funds a state allocates to local
          areas are state obligations. States report aggregate allocations to the local areas on
          the Local Adult ETA 9130 (F) financial reports, along with obligations by local areas

Appendix III                               -3-

           of those funds. Additional guidance and information on the access and use of the
           PMS Financial Reporting System for the submission of future ETA-9130 quarterly
           financial reports is provided in TEN No. 16-22. The PMS Financial Reporting
           System training sessions will be recorded and available for future reference.

Appendix IV – Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotment Activities

Wagner-Peyser Act ES Final Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for grants for
the ES programs totals was $675,052,000. After reducing the appropriated amount by
$2,159,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $672,893,000 is available for ES programs.
After determining the funding for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands, ETA calculates
allotments to states using the formula set forth at section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser Act (29 U.S.C.
49e). ETA based PY 2024 formula allotments on each state’s share of calendar year 20 23
monthly averages of the Civilian Labor Force (CLF) and unemployment. The distribution of
Wagner-Peyser Act funds for PY 2024 includes $671,252,721 for states, as well as $1,640,279
for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands. Attachment I shows the distribution of PY 2024
ES formula amounts by state compared to PY 2023.

Section 7(a) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. § 49f(a)) authorizes states to use 90 percent of
the funds allotted to a state for labor exchange services, and other career services such as job
search and placement services to job seekers; appropriate recruitment services for employers;
program evaluations; developing and providing labor market and occupational information;
developing management information systems; and administering the work test for unemployment
insurance claimants.

Section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. § 49f(b)), states that 10 percent of the funds
allotted to a state must be reserved for use by the Governor to provide performance incentives for
public employment service offices and programs, provide services for groups with special needs,
and provide for the extra costs of exemplary models for delivering services of the type described
in section 7(a) and models for enhancing professional development and career advancement
opportunities of state agency staf f.

State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) must use Wagner-Peyser Act ES funding to provide
employment services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers (MSFW), as described at 20 CFR §
651, 653, 654, and 658. These services include, but are not limited to, outreach to MSFWs, State
Monitor Advocate (SMA) responsibilities, clearance of job orders through the Agricultural
Recruitment System (ARS), and operation of the Employment Service and Employment-Related
Law Complaint System. SWAs must budget to ensure they have sufficient funds to support the
following ES staffing requirements: (1) an adequate number of outreach staff, as described in the
approved Agricultural Outreach Plan and ES regulations at § 653.107; (2) a full-time SMA,
unless the SWA has approval from the Regional Administrator for less than full-time SMA
devotion, and ES staff assigned to the SMA to assist the SMA to fulfil the SMA’s
responsibilities, as necessary under § 653.108(d) and (e); (3) ES staff assigned to conduct
preoccupancy housing inspections and field checks on ARS clearance orders , as described at
§ 653, Subpart F; and (4) trained Complaint System Representatives for ES offices and the
SWA, as described at § 658, Subpart E.

Appendix IV                                 -1-

Appendix V – Workforce Information Grants Allotment Activities

Workforce Information Grants (WIGs). Total funds for PY 2024 are $32,000,000. After
reducing the total by $31,000 for program integrity, $31,969,000 is available for Workforce
Information Grants. Funds are distributed to states by administrative formula with $176,726 for
Guam and the United States Virgin Islands. Guam and the United States Virgin Islands
allotment amounts are partially based on CLF data from the BLS Current Population Survey.
The remaining funds are distributed to the states with 40 percent distributed equally to all states,
and 60 percent distributed based on each state’s share of the CLF for the 12 months ending
September 2023. Attachment J contains the allotment amounts. Activities to be performed with
money from WIGS will be described in a TEGL published later this year.

Appendix V                                   -1-

Appendix VI – Submission Requirements and Reporting

1. Submission Requirements. To achieve greater efficiency and as part of ETA’s ongoing
   effort to streamline the mandatory grant award process, all states are required to submit an
   electronically signed copy of an SF-424, Application for Federal Assistance, through
   Grants.gov for each WIOA funding stream under Funding Opportunity Numbers. As noted in
   Section 3.b. of this TEGL, outlying areas that want to consolidate Adult, Dislocated Worker,
   and Youth funds into a single grant must follow steps identified in Appendix VII. However,
   outlying areas that do not choose to consolidate funds must follow the steps identified herein
   for states.

   •   ETA-TEGL-12-23-YOUTH [CFDA 17.259]
   •   ETA-TEGL-12-23-ADULT [CFDA 17.258]
   •   ETA-TEGL-12-23-DW [CFDA 17.278]

  An electronically submitted SF-424 through Grants.gov constitutes an official signed
  document and must reflect the amount for each WIOA funding stream (Youth, Adult, and
  Dislocated Worker). The closing date for receipt of each SF-424 is 30 days from the issue
  date of this TEGL.

  The PY 2024 “base” allotment of WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker funds will be awarded
  during the period of availability beginning July 2024. The FY 2025 “advance” allotment will
  be awarded in the period of availability starting October 2024. A copy of the executed PY
  2024 WIOA Agreement will be available upon award of funds.

  In addition, all states must submit an electronically signed SF-424, Application for Federal
  Assistance, through Grants.gov for each Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES)
  program under Funding Opportunity Numbers:

   •      ETA-TEGL-12-23-ES [CFDA 17.207]
   •      ETA-TEGL-12-23-WIG [CFDA 17.207]

  States must follow the instructions in this TEGL to receive Workforce Information Grants to
  States (WIGS) funding, including submission of SF-424s. Note that WIGS have specific grant
  deliverable requirements not outlined in this document. A forthcoming TEGL will list these
  grant deliverable requirements.

  An electronically submitted SF-424 through Grants.gov constitutes an official signed
  document and must reflect the amount for each ES program and WIGS. The closing date for
  receipt of each ES program SF-424 is 30 days from the issue date of this TEGL. ETA will
  award the ES program and WIGS funds in July 2024. A copy of the executed PY 2024 ES
  Agreement will be available upon award of funds.

2. Grants.gov Submission Process. States must submit the SF-424, Application for Federal
   Assistance, through Grants.gov. States needing to register with Grants.gov may do so here:
   https://www.grants.gov/register

Appendix VI                                 -1-

  Registration is a one-time process, and states that already have a Grants.gov account do not
  need to register again. To submit the required SF-424s, states must:

   •   Select the SEARCH GRANTS tab on the Grants.gov homepage.
   •   Under the section, BASIC SEARCH CRITERIA, states enter the Funding Opportunity
       Number referenced above in Section 1 of this appendix for each WIOA funding stream
       (i.e. “ETA-TEGL”).
   •   Select the link to the applicable Opportunity Number provided in the search results.
   •   Select the PACKAGE tab.
   •   Under the ACTIONS column, select APPLY.

   Submitting the SF-424 through Grants.gov constitutes an electronically signed SF-424,
   Application for Federal Assistance. For each funding stream, the Estimated Funding section
   of the SF-424 (item #18) must reflect the exact amount of the designated state allotment,
   referenced in the attachments to this TEGL. Additionally, Item #11 of the SF-424 must
   include the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Number (CFDA) for the applicable
   WIOA funding stream, which is referenced above in Section 1. Also, Item #15 of the SF424
   must indicate the amount of Indirect Costs claimed by the recipient. Example: “ Indirect
   Costs for this award are estimated at $19,000.” (A dollar amount must be inserted even if it
   is $0).

  This submission process can be complicated and time-consuming. As such, the Department
  strongly encourages states to initiate the process as soon as possible, in order to allow time to
  resolve unanticipated technical problems.

  As of April 4, 2022, the DUNS Number was replaced by a new, non -proprietary identifier
  requested in and assigned by SAM.gov. To learn more about this identifier called the Unique
  Entity Identifier (UEI), or the Entity ID, please visit the U.S. General Service Administration
  (GSA), Unique Entity Identifier Update webpage.

  Before submitting, states must also ensure its registration with the System for Award
  Management (SAM) is current. (SAM replaced the Central Contractor Registry.) States can
  find instructions for registering with SAM at https://sam.gov/content/entity-registration.
  An awardee must maintain an active SAM registration with current information at all times
  during which it has an active Federal award or an application under consideration. To remain
  registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, states must review and update the
  registration at least every 12 months from the date of initial registration. Failure to register
  with SAM and maintain an active account will result in Grants.gov rejecting your submission.

  For technical issues encountered during application submission, states may call 800 -518-4726
  to speak to a Customer Support Representative or email the email address found in
  https://gditshared.servicenowservices.com/hhs_grants. The Contact Center is open 24 hours a
  day, seven days a week, but closes on federal holidays.

  States should e-mail all submission questions to Janice Sheelor, Grants Management
  Specialist, at [email protected]. The email must reference the specific Funding

Appendix VI                                 -2-

  Opportunity Number, and include a contact name, email address, and phone number.

3. Separate Grants. Starting in PY 2023, ETA de-coupled programs that were previously
   awarded under a single grant and executed them as individual awards as part of an ongoing
   effort to improve data quality and fulfill reporting requirements to
   https://www.usaspending.gov/. Prior to PY 2023, the annual allotments for the three separate
   WIOA programs were distributed under a single grant award using the “AA” program
   identifier. Similarly, while the Wagner-Peyser ES Program grant and the Workforce
   Information Grants were distributed under a single grant award using the “ES” program
   identifier. Starting in PY 2023, ETA began awarding a separate grant to states and outlying
   areas for each WIOA and ES program, except for those outlying areas that request a WIOA
   consolidated grant.

  For PY 2024 WIOA programs, this will result in three separate grant awards as follows:

   •   WIOA Youth: PY 2024 Youth funding under program identifier “AY.”
   •   WIOA Adult: PY 2024 Adult and FY 2025 Advance Adult funding under program
       identifier “AT.”
   •   WIOA Dislocated Worker: PY 2024 Dislocated Worker and FY 2025 Advance
       Dislocated Worker funding under program identifier “AW.”

  For the Employment Service programs, this will result in two separate grant awards as
  follows:

   •   Wagner-Peyser ES Program: PY 2024 ES funding under program identifier “WP.”
   •   Workforce Information System Grants (WIGs): PY 2024 WIGs funding under program
       identifier “WG.”

   Note that this change does not impact the submission of the ETA 9130 financial reports since
   grantees are required to currently submit a separate ETA 9130 for each program.

4. Reporting. For the WIOA formula programs, states are required to submit the seven
   designated WIOA quarterly financial status reports covering funds received for each of the
   programs (including separate reports for each of the fund year periods for the Adult and
   Dislocated Worker Activities programs, July 1 funds and October 1 funds). These seven
   WIOA quarterly financial reports cover financial data for statewide Youth, statewide Adult,
   statewide Dislocated Worker, statewide Rapid Response (Dislocated Worker activities), local
   Youth, local Adult, and local Dislocated Worker activities. The Department also requires
   states to submit the designated financial reports each quarter for the ES program funds and the
   WIGS funds.

  Please refer to published ETA guidance and instructions on the ETA Advisory publication
  page (https://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/).

Appendix VI                                 -3-

5. Grant Award Descriptions.

   WIOA Adult program

   Purpose: The purpose of the WIOA Adult grants is to serve individuals and help employers
   meet their workforce needs. The WIOA Adult program enables workers to obtain good
   jobs by providing them with career services like job search assistance and training
   opportunities.
   Activities to be performed: WIOA specifies that most Adult program services will be
   provided through the American Job Center network, also known as one-stop career centers.
   Under the WIOA Adult program, eligible individuals can receive career services, which are
   classified into two categories: basic and individualized services. While some job seekers
   may only need self-service or other basic career services such as labor exchange services,
   others may need more comprehensive services, such as individualized services, which
   include career planning, and developing an individual employment plan outlining needs
   and goals of the job seeker. Participants will also receive training services linked to job
   opportunities in their communities. To promote customer choice and involvement in career
   decisions, participants use an Individual Training Account to select an appropriate training
   program from an eligible training provider list. WIOA also authorizes the provision of
   supportive services (e.g. transportation and childcare assistance) to enable an individual to
   participate in the program.
   Expected Outcomes: The WIOA Adult program outcomes are to ensure that individuals can
   access and receive the employment and training services they are eligible for, so that they
   may become employed or advance in employment. Grantees report performance measures of
   these outcomes, including the percentage of people employed in the second and fourth
   quarter after finishing the program, their earnings, and the percentage of people who
   obtained a credential.
   Intended beneficiaries: WIOA Adult funds must give priority to recipients of public
   assistance, other low-income individuals, and individuals who are basic skills deficient.
   Other categories include unemployed adults, dislocated workers, veterans, individuals with
   barriers to employment, and any eligible population.
   Subrecipient Activities: The grantees may subaward funds from the WIOA Adult
   program to provide some of the individualized career services, training, as well as provide
   supportive services.

   WIOA Dislocated Worker program

   Purpose: The purpose of the WIOA Dislocated Worker (DW) grants is to serve individuals
   and help employers meet their workforce needs. When individuals become dislocated
   workers because of job loss, mass layoffs, global trade dynamics or transitions in economic
   sectors, the WIOA DW program provides services to assist them in reentering the
   workforce.
   Activities to be performed: WIOA specifies that most DW services will be provided
   through the American Job Center network, also known as one-stop career centers. Under
   the DW program, eligible individuals will receive career services, which are classified into
   two categories: basic and individualized services. While some job seekers may only need

Appendix VI                                -4-

   self-service or other basic career services such as labor exchange services, others may need
   more comprehensive services, such as individualized services, which include career
   planning, and developing an individual employment plan outlining needs and goals of the
   job seeker. Participants will also receive training services linked to job opportunities in
   their communities. To promote customer choice and involvement in career decisions,
   participants use an Individual Training Account to select an appropriate training program
   from an eligible training provider list. WIOA also authorizes the provision of supportive
   services (e.g. transportation and childcare assistance) to enable an individual to participate
   in the program.
   Expected Outcomes: The WIOA Dislocated Worker program outcomes are to ensure that
   individuals can access and receive the employment and training services they are eligible
   for, so that they may become employed or advance in employment. Grantees report
   performance measures of these outcomes, including the percentage of people employed in
   the second and fourth quarter after finishing.
   Intended beneficiaries: Individuals who lose their jobs because of layoffs, global trade
   dynamics, or other economic transitions, such individuals who have received a notice of
   termination or layoff from employment, including a separation notice from active military
   services. Specific eligibility criteria are provided in WIOA sec 3(15).
   Subrecipient Activities: The grantees may subaward funds from the DW program to
   provide individualized career services, training, as well as provide supportive services.

  WIOA Youth program

  Purpose: The purpose of the WIOA Youth grants is to provide resources for local workforce
  development areas to deliver comprehensive youth services that focus on assisting out -of-
  school youth and in-school youth, with one or more barriers to employment, prepare for
  employment and postsecondary education opportunities; attain edu cational and/or skills
  training credentials; and secure employment with career/promotional opportunities.
  Activities to be performed: WIOA specifies that states provide resources for local workforce
  development areas to administer youth services. Local workforce development areas deliver
  comprehensive youth services to out-of-school youth and in-school youth. Services
  include: tutoring; alternative secondary school services; paid and unpaid work experiences,
  which include: summer and year round employment opportunities, pre -apprenticeship
  programs, internships and job shadowing, and on-the-job training; occupational skill training;
  education offered concurrently with workforce preparation and training; leadership
  development opportunities; supportive services; mentoring; follow-up services;
  comprehensive guidance and counseling; financial literacy education; entrepreneurial skills
  training; services that provide labor market and employment information; and postsecondary
  education and training preparation activities.
  Expected Outcomes: The WIOA Youth program outcomes are to provide activities that lead
  to the attainment of a secondary school diploma or recognized post-secondary credential
  and/or employment.
  Intended beneficiaries: Youth, between the ages of 14 and 24, with one or more of the
  following characteristics: low-income; basic skills deficient; English language learner; justice
  system involvement; homeless; runaway; in foster care; pregnant or parenting; individual with

Appendix VI                                 -5-

  a disability; or who requires additional assistance to complete an educational program.
  Subrecipient Activities: Local workforce development agencies deliver comprehensive
  services to out-of-school and in-school youth to prepare them for postsecondary education and
  employment. Some of the types of service activities may include but are not limited to:
  tutoring; paid and unpaid work experiences, occupational skill training, follow -up services;
  and comprehensive guidance and counseling, and supportive services.
  Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES)

  Purpose: The purpose of the ES program is to bring together individuals looking for
  employment and employers looking for job seekers. The program does this by providing a
  variety of services, which are available to all individuals. The program provides job seekers
  with career services, including labor exchange services, job search assistance, workforce
  information, referrals to employment, and other assistance. Employers can use the ES to post
  job orders and obtain qualified applicants.
  Activities to be performed: The ES is a universal access program that provides services to
  all individuals who need services. Allowable services include assessments of career interests,
  career guidance when appropriate, job search workshops, and referral to jobs or training as
  appropriate. Services offered to employers include referral of job seekers to job openings;
  matching job requirements with applicants' experience, skills and other attributes; helping
  with special recruitment needs; assisting employers with hard-to-fill job orders; assisting with
  job restructuring; and helping employers assist laid-off workers. Training services are not
  provided and not allowable under ES program.
  Expected Outcomes: The ES program outcomes are to ensure that individuals are able to
  access and receive the services they need to overcome barriers to employment and reenter the
  workforce system as quickly as possible.
  Intended beneficiaries: This is a universal access program that is available to all individuals.
  Subrecipient Activities: The grantees may subaward funds to conduct LMI research as well
  as the provision of specific services such as assessments of career interests, career guidance,
  job search workshops, referral to jobs or training as appropriate, and others.

  Workforce Information Grants to States (WIGS) program

  Purpose: The purpose of this grant is to develop and disseminate essential state and local
  labor market information (LMI) for a range of customer groups: 1) job seekers; 2)
  businesses/employers; 3) workforce and labor market intermediaries such as employment,
  school, and career counselors, and case managers at American Job Centers, who help
  individuals find a job or make career decisions, or engage businesses seeking skilled workers;
  4) program and service planners at educational institutions and co mmunity-based
  organizations; 5) policy makers, including state and local workforce development boards
  (WDBs); 6) partners, such as economic development entities and human resource
  professionals; and 7) other customers, including recipients of workforce dev elopment grants,
  researchers, commercial data providers, and the media.
  Activities to be performed: Grantees must populate and maintain a database (the Workforce
  Information Database or WID), produce two types of public products (employment
  projections and a statewide economic analysis report), and ensure LMI staff are adequately
  trained. ETA also encourages grantees to produce other reports and data in addition to those

Appendix VI                                -6-

  required. Grantees have wide discretion in both the topics and presentation format. These
  reports should include accurate data, actionable information, and resources that enable data
  users to make informed decisions about the reemployment, work-based learning, training, and
  career pathways strategies that lead to rapid reemployment and worker advancement along a
  continuum of high-demand and higher wage jobs.
  Expected Outcomes: By performing these duties users of LMI will have sufficient
  information to make informed decisions regarding employment, careers, education, and
  training.
  Intended Beneficiaries: Job seekers, employers, staff in American Job Centers, state and
  local WDBs, national/state/local policy makers, students, academic researchers, labor market
  analysts, and other users of LMI.
  Subrecipient Activities: A state may use WIGS funding to work with a subrecipient to
  conduct a study or research an LMI topic when a state LMI office does not have sufficient
  staffing or knowledge to conduct the work themselves.

Appendix VII – Submission Requirements and Financial Reporting for Outlying Areas
WIOA Title I Grant Consolidation

1. Submission Requirements. Under the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024, an
   outlying area may choose to consolidate WIOA title I funding for Program Year (PY) 2024.
   To apply for a consolidated award, an outlying area must submit an electronically signed copy
   of an SF- 424, Application for Federal Assistance, through Grants.gov for a single WIOA
   grant award under the Funding Opportunity Number listed below. Outlying areas that do not
   choose to consolidate funds must follow the same submission requirements as identified in
   Appendix VI for states.

   •   ETA-TEGL-12-23-OA [CFDA 17.290]

  Attachment K provides the total PY (April/July) and FY (October) amounts available under a
  consolidated grant application for any outlying area requesting a consolidated grant. The
  electronically submitted SF-424 through Grants.gov constitutes an official signed document
  and reflects the amount for the consolidation of WIOA title I funding streams for an outlying
  area. The closing date for receipt of the SF-424 is 30 days from the issue of this TEGL.

  For outlying areas whose consolidated grant application is approved, the PY 2024 WIOA
  Youth funds will be awarded during the period of availability beginning April 2024. The PY
  2024 “base” allotment of WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker funds will be awarde d during

  receipt of each ES program SF-424 is 30 days from the issue date of this TEGL.
  ETA will award the ES program and WIGS funds in July 2024. A copy of the executed PY
  2024 ES Agreement will be available upon award of funds.

Appendix VII                               -1-

2. Grants.gov Submission Process. Outlying areas must submit the SF-424, Application for
   Federal Assistance, through Grants.gov. Outlying areas needing to register with Grants.gov
   may do so here: https://www.grants.gov/register. Registration is a one-time process, and
   outlying areas that already have a Grants.gov account do not need to register again. To
   submit the required SF-424s, outlying areas must:

   •   Select the SEARCH GRANTS tab on the Grants.gov homepage.
   •   Under the section, BASIC SEARCH CRITERIA, states enter the Funding Opportunity
       Number referenced above in Section 1 of this appendix for the combined WIOA funding
       stream (i.e. “ETA-TEGL”). Guam and Virgin Islands will also enter in the Funding
       Opportunity Number for each of the two Wagner-Peyser funding streams.
   •   Select the link to the applicable Opportunity Number provided in the search results.
   •   Select the PACKAGE tab.
   •   Under the ACTIONS column, select APPLY.

  Submitting the SF-424 through Grants.gov constitutes an electronically signed SF-424,
  Application for Federal Assistance. For WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth
  Outlying Areas Consolidated Grants and the Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service grants
  (Guam and Virgin Islands), the Estimated Funding section of the SF-424 (item #18) must
  reflect the exact amount of the designated outlying area allotment, referenced in the
  attachments to this TEGL. Additionally, Item #11 of the SF-424 must include the Catalog of
  Federal Domestic Assistance Number (CFDA) for the applicable WIOA funding stream,
  which is referenced above in Section 1. Also, Item #15 of the SF-424 must indicate the
  amount of Indirect Costs claimed by the recipient. Example: “Indirect Costs for this award
  are estimated at $19,000.” (A dollar amount must be inserted even if it is $0).

  This submission process can be complicated and time-consuming. As such, the Department
  strongly encourages outlying areas to initiate the process as soon as possible, in order to allow
  time to resolve unanticipated technical problems.

  As of April 4, 2022, the DUNS Number was replaced by a new, non -proprietary identifier
  requested in and assigned by SAM.gov. To learn more about this identifier called the Unique
  Entity Identifier (UEI), or the Entity ID, please visit the U.S. General Service Administration
  (GSA), Unique Entity Identifier Update webpage.

  Before submitting, outlying areas must also ensure their registration with the System for
  Award Management (SAM) is current. (SAM replaced the Central Contractor
  Registry.) Instructions for registering with SAM can be found at
  https://sam.gov/content/entity-registration. An awardee must maintain an active SAM
  registration with current information at all times during which it has an active Federal award
  or an application under consideration. To remain registered in the SAM database after the
  initial registration, outlying areas must review and update the registration at least every 12
  months from the date of initial registration. Failure to register with SAM and maintain an
  active account will result in Grants.gov rejecting your submission.

  For technical issues encountered during application submission, outlying areas may call 800-

Appendix VII                                -2-

  518-4726 to speak to a Customer Support Representative, or contact the email address found

3. Separate Grants. For all states and outlying areas receiving WIOA and Wagner-Peyser
   formula grants, ETA has determined that it is necessary to de-couple programs that were
   previously awarded under a single grant prior to PY 2023 and execute them as separate
   awards as part of an ongoing effort to improve data quality and fulfill reporting requirements
   to USASpending.gov. Prior to PY 2023, the annual allotments for the three s eparate WIOA
   programs were distributed under a single grant award using the “AA” program identifier.
   Similarly, while the Wagner-Peyser ES Program grant and the Workforce Information Grants
   were distributed under a single grant award using the “ES” program identifier. Starting in PY
   2023, ETA will award a separate grant to states and outlying areas for each WIOA and ES
   program unless an outlying area submits a consolidated grant application and is approved.

  For the WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Outlying Areas Consolidated Grant, this
  will result in a grant award as follows:

    •   PY 2024 WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Outlying Areas Consolidated
        Grants and FY 2025 Advance funding under program identifier “AO.”

  For the Employment Service programs for Guam and Virgin Islands, this will result in two
  separate grant awards as follows:

    •   Wagner-Peyser ES Program: PY 2024 ES funding under program identifier “WP.”
    •   Workforce Information Grants to States (WIGS): PY 2024 WIGS funding under
        program identifier “WG.”

4. Reporting. For the WIOA formula programs consolidated grant, outlying areas are required
   to submit two ETA 9130 Basic quarterly financial status reports each quarter. One will cover
   funds received for the periods beginning in April and July (see Attachment K Totals Column
   for PY Apr/July). A separate report is required for the funds received for the period beginning
   in October (see Attachment K Totals Column for FY October). The WIOA quarterly financial
   reports cover financial data, in one report, for the sum of statewide Youth, statewide Adult,
   statewide Dislocated Worker, statewide Rapid Response (Dislocated Worker activities), local
   Youth, local Adult, and local Dislocated Worker activities. For many outlying areas, there
   may not be a distinction between “statewide” and “local” activities. The Department also
   requires Guam and Virgin Islands to submit the designated financial reports each quarter for
   the ES program funds and the WIGS funds. ETA will provide future guidance regarding any
   modified performance reporting requirements.

5. Grant Award Descriptions.

  WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Outlying Areas Consolidated Grants

  Purpose: The purpose of the WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Outlying Areas
  Consolidated Grants is to serve individuals and help employers meet their workforce needs.
  This program enables workers to obtain good jobs by providing them with career services like
  job search assistance, training opportunities, and services to enter or re -enter the workforce.
  This program also can deliver comprehensive youth services that focus on assisting out -of-
  school youth and in-school youth, with one or more barriers to employment, prepare for
  employment and postsecondary education opportunities; attain educational and/or skills
  training credentials; and secure employment with career/promotional opportunities.
  Activities to be performed: WIOA specifies that most WIOA services provided for the
  Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth programs, are delivered through the American Job
  Center network, also known as one-stop career centers. Outlying areas receiving a
  consolidated grant may use funds interchangeably between Adult, Youth, and Dislocated
  Worker programs.
  Expected outcomes: Outcomes for the WIOA consolidated grants for outlying areas are to
  ensure that individuals can access and receive the employment and training services they are
  eligible for, so that they may become employed or advance in employment. For youth served,
  program outcomes are to provide activities that lead to the attainment of a secondary school
  diploma or recognized post-secondary credential and/or employment. Grantees report against
  performance measures for these outcomes. ETA will provide technical assistance regarding
  any modified performance reporting requirements.
  Intended beneficiaries: Services provided under the WIOA Adult, Dislocated Worker, and
  Youth Outlying Areas Consolidated Grants are available to any individuals who would
  qualify for eligibility under the WIOA Title I Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth programs.
  Subrecipient Activities: The grantees may subaward funds from the WIOA Adult,
  Dislocated Worker, and Youth Outlying Areas Consolidated Grants to provide individualized
  career services, training, supportive services and youth service activities including tutoring;
  paid and unpaid work experiences, occupational skill training, follow-up services; and
  comprehensive guidance and counseling, and supportive services.

  Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES)

  Purpose: The purpose of the ES program is to bring together individuals looking for
  employment and employers looking for job seekers. The program does this by providing a
  variety of services, which are available to all individuals. The program provides job seekers
  with career services, including labor exchange services, job search assistance, workforce
  information, referrals to employment, and other assistance. Employers can use the ES to post
  job orders and obtain qualified applicants.
  Activities to be performed: The ES is a universal access program that provides services to
  all individuals who need services. Allowable services include assessments of career interests,

Appendix VII                               -4-

  career guidance when appropriate, job search workshops, and referral to jobs or training as
  appropriate. Services offered to employers include referral of job seekers to job openings;
  matching job requirements with applicants' experience, skills and other attributes; helping
  with special recruitment needs; assisting employers with hard-to-fill job orders; assisting with
  job restructuring; and helping employers assist laid-off workers. Training services are not
  provided and not allowable under ES program.
  Expected Outcomes: The ES program outcomes are to ensure that individuals are able to
  access and receive the services they need to overcome barriers to employment and reenter the
  workforce system as quickly as possible.
  Intended beneficiaries: This is a universal access program that is available to all individuals.
  Subrecipient Activities: The grantees may subaward funds to conduct LMI research as well
  as the provision of specific services such as assessments of career interests, career guidance,
  job search workshops, referral to jobs or training as appropriate, and others.

  Workforce Information Grants to States (WIGS) program

  Purpose: The purpose of this grant is to develop and disseminate essential state and local
  labor market information (LMI) for a range of customer groups: 1) job seekers; 2)
  businesses/employers; 3) workforce and labor market intermediaries such as employment,
  school, and career counselors, and case managers at American Job Centers, who help
  individuals find a job or make career decisions, or engage businesses seeking skilled workers;
  4) program and service planners at educational institutions and co mmunity-based
  organizations; 5) policy makers, including state and local workforce development boards
  (WDBs); 6) partners, such as economic development entities and human resource
  professionals; and 7) other customers, including recipients of workforce dev elopment grants,
  researchers, commercial data providers, and the media.
  Activities to be performed: Grantees must populate and maintain a database (the Workforce
  Information Database or WID), produce two types of public products (employment
  projections and a statewide economic analysis report), and ensure LMI staff are adequately
  trained. ETA also encourages grantees to produce other reports and data in addition to those
  required. Grantees have wide discretion in both the topics and presentation format. These
  reports should include accurate data, actionable information, and resources that enable data
  users to make informed decisions about the reemployment, work-based learning, training, and
  career pathways strategies that lead to rapid reemployment and worker advancement along a
  continuum of high-demand and higher wage jobs.
  Expected Outcomes: By performing these duties users of LMI will have sufficient
  information to make informed decisions regarding employment, careers, education, and
  training.
  Intended Beneficiaries: Job seekers, employers, staff in American Job Centers, state and
  local WDBs, national/state/local policy makers, students, academic researchers, labor market
  analysts, and other users of LMI.
  Subrecipient Activities: A state may use WIGS funding to work with a subrecipient to
  conduct a study or research an LMI topic when a state LMI office does not have sufficient
  staffing or knowledge to conduct the work themselves.

FY 2025 Advance funds are available for obligations and expenditures on or after October 1, 2024.
Delays in issuing the FY 2025 Advance funds may occur if there is a no approved DOL (budget) appropriation.

* Authorizing legislation such as WIOA Public Law 113-128 establishes policies and funding limits for programs and agencies.
** Appropriations legislation gives Departments authority to obligate and expend federal funds related to the program authorizations.
Appropriations can further restrict the purpose, time, and amount of the program authorizations and through the Anti-Deficiency Act,
Departments are prohibited from overobligating or overspending an appropriation. Appropriations legislation would include the
