Short Statement: Prior to development of ETA-9117, states reported their financial status on the now-rescinded ETA-9023, which was both a quarterly report form and request for funds. States now report quarterly on the SF-269 and receive a formula base allocation at the beginning of each fiscal year to address training needs. Requests for more than that base allocation vary per year based on extreme local area conditions.
