Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA WOTC TEGL 6 20 2021

The Work Opportunity Tax Credit Funding Allotments for Fiscal Year 2021 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: ETA WOTC TEGL 6 20 2021) is a mandatory grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA). Its purpose is to announce the availability of FY 2021 state-by-state funding allotments that support Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) program operations. In practical terms, the funding is intended to help states carry out the administrative and operational activities required to run WOTC, which is the federal tax credit designed to encourage employers to hire individuals from certain targeted groups that face barriers to employment.

The announcement is structured as a Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL), which functions less like a typical competitive grant notice and more like an official allocation and guidance document for recipients. It lays out what funding is available, what recipients have to submit to receive their allocation, and the rules and procedures ETA expects grantees to follow. The TEGL also reinforces general administrative policies and procedural guidance established by ETA and points applicants to requirements contained in the WOTC Statement of Work, which typically describes the expected scope of program tasks, service levels, reporting, and compliance responsibilities.

The funding instrument is a grant and the activity category is Employment, Labor and Training under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 17.271. The opportunity anticipates 54 awards, which aligns with providing allotments across states and eligible jurisdictions. The listed award ceiling is $494,571, indicating that individual allocations vary and that some recipients may receive awards up to that maximum amount depending on the formula or allotment structure used for the program.

Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which in the context of WOTC allotments generally refers to state workforce agencies or other designated state entities responsible for administering WOTC certification activities. The key point is that this is not an open, general-public solicitation; it is aimed at the governmental or officially designated organizations that operate WOTC at the state level and are responsible for certifying individuals for employers seeking the tax credit.

The application window associated with this allotment guidance opened with a creation date of November 19, 2020, and had an original closing date of December 18, 2020. Applications were required to be received by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date. The emphasis on receipt by the deadline signals that late submissions would risk delayed or jeopardized funding, and that states needed to provide the required grant application materials in time to secure their FY 2021 allocation.

Overall, this opportunity is best understood as ETA formally distributing FY 2021 WOTC administrative funding to states and setting the conditions for receiving and using those funds. It combines an announcement of each jurisdiction's allotment with a checklist of application requirements and a reminder of the administrative, procedural, and performance expectations that govern how WOTC work must be carried out under federal grant rules and the WOTC Statement of Work.
