Processing Instructions


A petition for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) for Workers has been filed on behalf of a group of workers at a firm. By law (19 U.S.C. 2273(a)), this determination must be made within a 40 calendar days following the filing date of the petition. The Secretary of Labor is authorized to obtain this information through subpoena if the firm fails to comply with this request (19 U.S.C. 2272(d)(3)(B) and 2321). Your assistance in expeditiously completing this form is necessary for the U.S. Department of Labor (the Department) to determine whether these workers may be eligible for federal benefits. Complete and return this form no later than [Insert date here].


Background. The Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) for Workers program (TAA/ATAA program) is authorized under Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. § 2271 et seq.) (“the Act”). The TAA program provides workers who have been adversely affected by foreign trade with opportunities to obtain skills, credentials, resources, and support necessary to become reemployed. The TAA/ATAA program offers the following services to eligible workers: employment and case management services, training, out of area job search and relocation allowances, income support, as well as, additional benefits for workers age 50 or older to find reemployment and additional support. Filing a petition is the first step in qualifying for TAA/ATAA program benefits and services. In response to a filing, the Department conducts an investigation to determine whether foreign trade was an important cause of the workers’ job loss or threat of job separation. After the investigation, the Department issues a determination regarding the worker group’s eligibility to apply for TAA/ATAA program benefits and services. A state workforce representative will notify workers in a certified worker group of the determination, at which time the individual worker may apply for eligibility of benefits and services at a local American Job Center. Additional information is available on our website at www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/tradeact/.
