ADVISORY: TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT GUIDANCE LETTER NO. 16-19
TO: STATE WORKFORCE AGENCIES
ALL STATE WORKFORCE LIAISONS
FROM: JOHN PALLASCH
Assistant Secretary
SUBJECT: Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Adult, Dislocated Worker
and Youth Activities Program Allotments for Program Year (PY) 2020; PY
2020 Allotments for the Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES) Program
and the Allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States for PY 2020
1. Purpose. To provide information to states and outlying areas on WIOA Title I Adult,
Dislocated Worker and Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2020; PY 2020
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 2020.
2. Action Requested. States 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 2020 funds based on unobligated balances of PY
2019 funds in excess of 20 percent of their allotment at the end of PY 2019
(6/30/2020);
Requirements when calculating sub-state allocations to local areas;
Funds set aside for evaluations;
Salary caps at the Executive Level II; and
Waivers of the competition requirement for outlying areas.
b. Background - On December 20, 2019, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020,
Pub. L. 116-94 was signed into law (from this point forward, referred to as “the Act”).
The Act makes PY 2020 Youth Activities funds available for obligation on April 1, 2020,
and funds the WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker programs in two separate
RESCISSIONS EXPIRATION DATE
None Continuing
appropriations. The first appropriations for the Adult and Dislocated Worker programs
become available for obligation on July 1, 2020; 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, 2020; 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 2020 that will be made available on October 1, 2020 were appropriated
during FY 2020, but not made available until FY 2021, and are called the FY 2021
“advance” funds. See Attachment A for details.
The Act, Division A, 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
2020, as authorized by the Act, the Department has set aside $818,000 of the Training and
Employment Services (TES) appropriations for evaluations. ETA reserved these funds
from the WIOA Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker program budgets. Any funds not
utilized for these reserve activities will be provided to the states.
ETA applied the reductions for evaluations from the WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker
programs only to the FY 2021 “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 A, 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 rate 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 TEGL No. 5-06.
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 2020, outlying area grant amounts are based on the
administrative formula determined by the Secretary that was used under WIA.
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 and
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 2020 for WIOA Youth Activities totals
$913,130,000. After reducing the appropriation by $224,000 for evaluations,
$912,906,000 is available for Youth Activities, which includes $13,693,590 for Native
American grantees, $896,964,379 for states, and $2,248,031 for outlying areas. 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 the Native American reservation.
The Native American reservation is calculated on the total available for Youth Activities.
Attachment D contains a breakdown of the WIOA Youth Activities program allotments
by state for PY 2020 and provides a comparison of these allotments to PY 2019. 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 2020 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 2018 through June 2019, 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
2018 through June 2019, 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, 2011 and December
31, 2015.
Since the total amount available for states in PY 2020 is below the required $1 billion
threshold specified in WIOA sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV), which was also the case in PY
2019, 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.
Appendix I -1-
B. PY 2020 Funding WIOA Agreement/Notice of Award (NOAs). Youth program funds
are available to states to use once the PY 2020 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 2020, 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 2018 to June 2019.
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 2018 to June 2019.
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, 2011 and December 31,
2015.
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-19-15).
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
Appendix I -2-
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 2018 and the same data must be used in PY 2020.
See TEGL No. 14-17 for further information.
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 1.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 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.
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
Appendix I -3-
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 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 2019 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 2019 funds after the first
program year. Therefore, any reallotment of funds requires the use of PY 2020 funds. In
other words, recapture and reallotment of PY 2020 funds is based on obligation levels of
PY 2019 funds at the end of PY 2019.
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 2019 funds and no further action is required regarding reallotment of PY 2020
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.
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 2020 columns in Attachments
D and E. States that meet the criteria for PY 2020 as a minimum allotment state are those
states that receive a PY 2020 WIOA Youth allotment of $2,242,411 or receive a PY 2020
WIOA Adult allotment of $2,130,845. If a state wishes to submit a small state OSY
exception request, they must submit the request for PY 2020 by September 30, 2020.
Appendix I -4-
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 2020 is
$854,649,000. After reducing the appropriated amount by $175,000 for evaluations,
$854,474,000 remains for Adult Activities, of which $852,337,815 is for states and
$2,136,185 is for outlying areas. Attachment E shows the PY 2020 Adult Employment
and Training Activities allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2020
allotments to PY 2019 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 2020 is below the required $960 million threshold specified in WIOA
sec. 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV), as was also the case in PY 2019, 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 2020 Funding WIOA Agreement/NOAs. For PY 2020, Congress appropriated funds
for this program in two portions: $142,649,000 is available for obligation on July 1, 2020
(PY 2020), and $712,000,000 is available for obligation on October 1, 2020 (FY 2021).
After reductions associated with evaluations, the amount available for Adult Activities on
July 1, 2020 (PY 2020) is $142,649,000, and on October 1, 2020 is $711,825,000. 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, 2020, under
the PY 2020 WIOA grant agreement, and the other for October 1, 2020, also under the
PY 2020 WIOA grant agreement (see Attachment F).
C. Sub-State Allocations. States must distribute WIOA Adult Activities funds for PY 2020
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 2020. In
allocating WIOA Adult funds to local areas for PY 2020, 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 State Plan remains consistent with this guidance. See Attachment C for a
description of sub-state allocation formulas.
Appendix II -1-
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 2018 to June 2019.
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 2018 to June 2019.
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, 2011 and December 31, 2015.
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-19-15).
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 2018 and the same data must be used in PY 2020.
See TEGL No. 14-17 for further information.
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 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
Appendix II -2-
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 funds 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 1.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 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 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.
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
Appendix II -3-
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 2019 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 2019 funds after the first
program year. Therefore, any re-allotment of funds requires the use of PY 2020 funds.
In other words, re-allotment of PY 2020 funds is based on obligation levels of PY 2019
funds at the end of PY 2019.
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 2019 funds and no further action is required regarding re-allotment of PY 2020
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.
Appendix II -4-
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 2020 totals $1,322,912,000.
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 $419,000 for
evaluations, a total of $1,322,493,000 remains available for Dislocated Worker Activities. The
amount available for outlying areas is $3,306,233, leaving $267,473,767 for the National
Reserve and a total of $1,051,713,000 available for states.
A. State Allotments. Attachment G shows the PY 2020 Dislocated Worker Activities
allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2020 allotments to PY 2019
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 2020
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 2018 through September 2019.
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 2018 through September
2019. 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 2018 through September 2019.
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-
Low unemployment rates in the states have impacted the excess unemployment data
factor in the WIOA Dislocated Worker formula. The excess unemployment rate of 4.5
percent and low unemployment result in all states triggering either their statutorily
required stop loss or stop gain provision, with some PY 2020 funding undistributed.
WIOA specifically prohibits distributing an amount to a state that is more than its stop
gain limit. Based on this statutory limitation, the Department distributed the remaining
balance of funds according to the formula driven relative share of all states triggering the
stop loss provision.
B. PY 2020 Funding WIOA Agreement/NOAs. For PY 2020, Congress appropriated funds
for this program in two portions for both formula funds and National Reserve funds. For
state formula funds, $192,053,000 is available for obligation on July 1, 2020 (PY 2020),
and $860,000,000 is available for obligation on October 1, 2020 (FY 2021). For the
National Reserve, which includes funds for the outlying areas, $70,859,000 is available
for obligation on July 1, 2020 (PY 2020), and $200,000,000 is available for obligation on
October 1, 2020 (FY 2021). After reductions associated with evaluations, the amount
available for state formula funds on July 1, 2020 is $192,053,000 and on October 1, 2020
is $859,660,000. For the National Reserve, the amount available on July 1, 2020 is
$70,859,000 and on October 1, 2020 is $199,921,000. 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, 2020, under the PY
2020 WIOA grant agreement, and the other for October 1, 2020, also under the PY 2020
WIOA grant agreement (see Attachment H).
C. Sub-State Allocations. States will distribute Dislocated Worker Activities funds for PY
2020 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 2020.
In allocating WIOA Dislocated Worker funds to local areas for PY 2020, 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
Appendix III -2-
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 the 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 State Plan:
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 2019 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 2019 funds
after the first program year. Therefore, any re-allotment of funds requires the use of PY
2020 funds. In other words, the Department will reallot PY 2020 Dislocated Worker
formula funds among states during PY 2020 based on state obligations of PY 2019 funds
made during PY 2019. Likewise, obligation of PY 2020 funds will impact recapture and
reallotment of PY 2021 funding.
1. WIOA sec. 134(a)(2)(A)(ii) gives states the flexibility to use PY 2019 Rapid
Response funds that are not obligated by the end of PY 2019 for statewide activities.
Appendix III -3-
Per WIOA sec. 132(c), states must still obligate 80 percent of their PY 2019
Dislocated Worker program formula funds, which includes Rapid Response funds, by
June 30, 2020 or potentially have PY 2020 funds recaptured and re-allotted to states
who have obligated 80 percent of their PY 2019 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 Dislocated Worker ETA 9130 (F) financial reports, along with obligations
by local areas of those funds.
Appendix III -4-
Appendix IV – Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotment Activities
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2020 for grants for the ES
programs totals was $668,052,000. 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 2020 formula allotments on each
state’s share of calendar year 2019 monthly averages of the Civilian Labor Force (CLF) and
unemployment. The distribution of Wagner-Peyser Act funds for PY 2020 includes
$666,423,522 for states, as well as $1,628,478 for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands.
Attachment I shows the distribution of PY 2020 ES formula amounts by state compared to PY
2019.
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 staff.
Appendix IV -1-
Appendix V – Workforce Information Grants Allotment Activities
Workforce Information Grants (WIGs). Total funds for PY 2020 are $32,000,000. Funds are
distributed to states by administrative formula with $176,800 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 Study. 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 2019. 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. In order to achieve greater efficiency and as part of ETA’s
ongoing effort to streamline the mandatory grant award process, all states and outlying areas
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 (henceforth, in this appendix, references to “states” shall be read to include outlying
areas):
• ETA-TEGL-16-19-YOUTH [CFDA 17.259]
• ETA-TEGL-16-19-ADULT [CFDA 17.258]
• ETA-TEGL-16-19-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 2020 “base” allotment of WIOA Adult and Dislocated Worker funds will be awarded
during the period of availability beginning July 2020. The FY 2021 “advance” allotment will
be awarded in the period of availability starting October 2020. A copy of the executed PY
2020 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 program under Funding
Opportunity Numbers:
• ETA-TEGL-16-19-ES [CFDA 17.207]
• ETA-TEGL-16-19-WIG [CFDA 17.207]
States must follow the instructions in this TEGL to receive 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 Wagner-Peyser Act program (ES Program and
Workforce Information Grants). The closing date for receipt of each Wagner-Peyser Act
program SF-424 is 30 days from the issue date of this TEGL. ETA will award the ES
Program and Workforce Information Grant funds in July 2020. A copy of the executed PY
2020 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/web/grants/grantors/grantor-registration.html. 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:
Appendix VI -1-
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.
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.
Submission requirements stipulate that all applicants for Federal grant and funding
opportunities must have a Data Universal Numbering System (D-U-N-S®) number, and must
supply their D-U-N-S® number on the SF-424.
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://www.sam.gov. 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
or 606-545-5035 to speak to a Customer Support Representative, or email
[email protected]. 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 Chanta Ferrell, Grants Management
Specialist, at [email protected]. The email must reference the specific Funding
Opportunity Number, and include a contact name, email address, and phone number.
3. 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
Appendix VI -2-
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
Workforce Information Grant funds.
