This grant, offered by the Department of Labor’s Office of Foreign Labor Certification (OFLC), provides essential planning guidance to State Workforce Agencies (SWAs). Its primary purpose is to outline the framework for foreign labor certification grants applicable through Fiscal Year 2027. Specifically, it announces the initial grant allotments for FY 2025, enabling SWAs to prepare and manage programs related to foreign labor certification. This initiative ensures that state agencies have the necessary information to effectively administer these critical labor programs, supporting the integrity and efficiency of the foreign labor certification process nationwide. The guidance is a crucial resource for SWAs in developing their operational plans and understanding funding parameters.
