Note: Additional eligibility criteria may be established as part of a discretionary grant application. DISLOCATED WORKER (DW) SET ASIDE AND DISCRETIONARY GRANTS Basic WIA eligibility applies to all DW formula program set-aside grants, and all DW 25% and other discretionary grants, including citizenship/immigration status, selective service, age, and veterans priority of service (see Attachment #1). In addition, those served must meet one of the 6 categories of Dislocated Worker eligibility as identified in Attachment 2, OR must be incumbent workers in need of training to avoid a layoff. Note: Other eligibility requirements may be established as part of an approved set-aside or discretionary grant application. YOUTH SET ASIDE AND DISCRETIONARY GRANTS If a WIA discretionary grant designed to serve youth ages 14-21 was funded as part of a required statewide activity, the youth must meet the same eligibility as the formula-funded youth program (see Attachment #3). If the grant was funded as part of an allowable statewide activity, and considered to be a research project, a demonstration project, or a non-traditional employment program, non-WIA eligible youth may be enrolled (such as youth with a different age range, those not considered low income, etc.). However, basic WIA eligibility needs to be documented including citizenship/immigration status, age (as defined by the grant), and selective service. BASIC ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Each of the following eligibility elements must be documented for each applicant. Please refer to attachments 1-3 for comprehensive checklists of allowable forms of documentation. Photocopies of documentation kept on file must be legible. Citizenship/Eligible to Work Participation shall be open to citizens and nationals of the United States, lawfully admitted permanent resident aliens, refugees, asylees, and parolees, and other immigrants authorized by the Attorney General to work in the United States. Applicants shall also prove legal US citizenship in accordance with the Colorado Revised Statutes 24-76.5. They shall possess one of the acceptable forms of identification (ID), and Complete the Affidavit of Immigration Status form for all participants 18 years and older. If the participant does not possess one of the forms of ID listed and does not provide the requested information, application to the program must be denied. (Exception: Per TEGL 09-12 (see Attachment 9), operators may not deny WIA-funded services to victims of severe forms of human trafficking based on their immigration status.) Note: If a Social Security number is being used to document citizenship, or if the participant is being entered into a paid work experience activity, the original signed card needs to be presented along with a picture ID. Both documents should be copied so that signatures and Social Security numbers are legible. If the Social Security number is simply being used as the unique identifier in Connecting Colorado, the number does not need to be verified. If the client prefers not to provide a Social Security number, a pseudo number can be created for use in Connecting Colorado. A picture ID is not required as long as other appropriate documents are available to document eligibility. WIA can pay for a picture ID as a supportive service if the client is enrolled in the program. (Additional types of documentation that can be used to demonstrate citizenship are listed in the Documentation Checklist section of this attachment.) 2. Selective Service/Military Status All participants shall be in compliance with the Selective Service Act requirements. All males who are at least 18 years old and born after December 31, 1959, and who are not in the armed services on active duty, shall be registered. 3. Age at enrollment must be 18 or older for Adult discretionary or Dislocated Worker discretionary and set aside grants. Age at enrollment for Youth will be defined within the individual discretionary grant application. GLOSSARY Local program staff making eligibility determinations for the set-aside or discretionary grant program should make use of the following definitions: APPLICANT (AN INDIVIDUAL) An individual who applies to a WIA Grant recipient or sub-recipient for employment, training and/or services provided under WIA. CITIZENSHIP Designation of an applicant as a citizen of the United States or a lawfully admitted permanent resident alien, lawfully admitted refugee or parolee, and other individuals authorized by the Attorney General to work in the United States. If the applicant indicates that he/she is not a citizen or an eligible non-citizen, the applicant is ineligible for WIA. (Per state statute, an Affidavit of Immigration Status shall be completed as part of the enrollment process for applicants 18 years or older, effective August 1, 2006). PARTICIPANT An individual who has been determined to be eligible to participate in and who is receiving services (except follow-up services) under a program authorized by this Act. Participation shall be deemed to commence on the day the participant receives his first participation service as defined in PGL 11-17-WIA: Data Integrity and the Customer Participation Cycle. Customers receiving self-service or informational activities are not considered to be participants in the WIA programs. SELECTIVE SERVICE Only those males who are subject to, and have complied with, the registration requirements of Military Selective Service Act (MSSA) are eligible for participation in WIA funded programs and services. Every male citizen and every other male residing in the United States shall register with the Selective Service System (SSS) between their 18th and 26th birth dates. A person may not be denied a right, privilege or benefit under Federal law by reason of failure to present himself for and submit to registration under section 3 [50 U.S.C/ App. 453] if: The requirement for the person to so register has terminated or become inapplicable to the person; AND The person shows by a preponderance of the evidence that the failure of the person to register was not a knowing and willful failure to register. This provision was added in order not to penalize an individual with an obvious disqualifying handicap, such as total paralysis of the limbs, or an individual who has been honorably discharged from the armed services. For complete guidance regarding the Selective Service requirements for participation in WIA programs and grants, regions are to review Attachment 8: TEGL 11-11, Change 2, Selective Service Registration Requirements for Employment and Training Programs, dated May 16, 2012 In addition to guidance provided in TEGL 11-11, Change 2, the following documentation may be used for persons eligible to register but who neglected to register and are now over 26 years old: Incarcerated, hospitalized, or institutionalized A copy of a statement from the Department of Corrections, or other institution, indicating the duration of the stay can be used to demonstrate that the individual was not available to register with Selective Service during his period of Selective Service eligibility. Veteran A copy of a DD214 showing other than a dishonorable discharge can be used in lieu of a Selective Service registration. In addition, the veteran can provide a Selective Service waiver document (obtainable by the Selective Service System). Homeless A letter from a homeless shelter or a statement signed by the applicant can be utilized to attest to the applicants inability to register for Selective Service while he was still eligible. Non-citizen An alien registration card or other immigration document showing the date of entry into the United States, and demonstrating that this date was beyond the date of his 26th birthday. DOCUMENTING ELIGIBILITY WITH SELF-ATTESTATION Documenting eligibility with self-attestation is a method of last resort when no other source of documentation can be found or accessed. Self-attestation can also be used to clarify documentation that is considered insufficient by itself. However, the basic WIA eligibility data elements of age and immigration status cannot be self-attested. Please review the most current or relevant Data Validation PGL to assist in determining when it is appropriate to use self-attestation; or consult with your local MIS coordinator if the data element in question is not addressed by the PGL. . An acceptable self-attestation statement should be a signed document (such as a signed WIA application), attesting to the truthfulness and accuracy of all answers, that includes information clearly addressing the eligibility criteria you are trying to capture, and should adhere to local self-attestation policy guidelines. A copy of this document should be retained in the customer case file (hard copy or electronic file.)
