Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA WOTC TEGL 08 24
The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) Initial Funding Allotments for Fiscal Year 2025 grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: ETA WOTC TEGL 08 24) is a mandatory federal funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA). It provides each state with an initial FY 2025 funding allotment to support the administration of WOTC-related activities. WOTC is a federal tax credit that encourages employers to hire individuals from certain targeted groups that may face barriers to employment, and these grant funds help states carry out the operational work required for the program to function.
Funding is offered as a grant under CFDA 17.271, within the Employment, Labor and Training activity category. The eligible applicants are State Workforce Development Agencies (SWAs), reflecting that the program is run through state-level workforce agencies that manage WOTC certification processes and related program administration. The announcement indicates an expected 53 awards, which typically corresponds to awards across U.S. states and territories participating in the program.
The notice (issued as a Training and Employment Guidance Letter, or TEGL) focuses on two main things: (1) announcing the availability of the initial FY 2025 state allotments, and (2) laying out the grant award application requirements that SWAs must follow in order to receive their funding allocations. In other words, it is both an allocation notice and an instructions-and-requirements document that tells grantees what they need to submit, and how, to access the funds tied to their initial allotment.
Key timeline and award information included in the source data shows the opportunity was created on December 5, 2024, with an original closing date of January 6, 2025. The listed award ceiling is $518,848, which signals the maximum amount associated with an individual award under the initial allotment structure (actual award amounts can vary by state based on the allotment formula and program considerations described in the TEGL).
