Opportunity Information: Apply for UIPL 1 17
The Health Coverage Tax Credit (HCTC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: UIPL 1-17) is a mandatory federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) under CFDA 17.276. It is designed specifically to help states rebuild or strengthen the administrative "infrastructure" needed to support the Health Coverage Tax Credit program, particularly after the reinstatement of the program's advance credit option. In practical terms, the funding is meant to cover the behind-the-scenes work states must do so eligible workers can learn about the benefit, understand how to use it, and successfully access it without unnecessary delays or confusion.
The core purpose of these HCTC Infrastructure Dislocated Worker Grants (HCTC Infrastructure DWGs) is to reimburse or support administrative costs tied to implementation and outreach. The opportunity emphasizes activities such as notifying potentially eligible workers, conducting public education about the tax credit, training state and partner staff who will be involved in the program, and carrying out outreach efforts so the benefit reaches the intended population. These are not grants focused on delivering direct services like job training; instead, they are focused on ensuring states have the operational capacity, staff readiness, and communication systems necessary to administer and promote the HCTC effectively.
Eligibility is aimed at states (the description repeatedly notes that states may apply), even though the listing includes "Others" in the eligible applicants field. The grant instrument is a standard grant, and it falls within the Employment, Labor and Training activity category. The opportunity was created on October 25, 2016, and the original closing date was September 30, 2019, indicating it was time-limited and tied to a specific period of program reinstatement and administrative ramp-up.
Funding details include an award ceiling of $500,000 per award, suggesting states could seek up to that amount to cover eligible administrative and outreach expenses. The listing indicates "Expected Awards:" but does not provide a number, so the total number of awards anticipated is not specified in the source data. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a capacity-building and implementation support grant: it helps states pay for the administrative groundwork required to inform dislocated workers about the HCTC benefit, train staff and partners, and perform outreach so eligible individuals can take advantage of the reinstated advance credit option.Apply for UIPL 1 17
