Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA UIPL 11 23 INTEG

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), through its Employment and Training Administration (ETA), announced a discretionary grant opportunity called the "Announcement of Integrity Grants to States Funding Opportunity under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)." This funding opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number ETA UIPL 11 23 INTEG and is associated with CFDA/Assistance Listing 17.225, which generally covers unemployment insurance (UI) related administrative and program integrity activities. The overall purpose of the opportunity is to provide Integrity Grants to states using resources made available under the American Rescue Plan Act, with the emphasis on strengthening and improving the integrity of state-administered unemployment insurance systems.

In practical terms, an "integrity" grant in the UI context typically refers to targeted funding that helps states prevent, detect, and address improper payments, including fraud, identity-related schemes, and other payment errors. Although the short description provided does not list specific allowable activities, ETA integrity funding commonly supports efforts like enhanced identity verification, cross-matching and data analytics, improved case investigations and adjudication processes, modernization of program controls, strengthening internal controls and audit responses, and training or staffing capacity that directly reduces improper payments and protects program funds. This aligns with the ARPA-era focus on helping states respond to the surge in UI claims and the heightened fraud risks experienced during and after the pandemic period.

The opportunity is administered as a grant, and it is categorized under Employment, Labor and Training. The eligible applicants are listed as "Others," with the note that applicants should consult the funding notice text under "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification. For ETA UI integrity grants, eligibility is typically aimed at state unemployment insurance agencies or state workforce agencies (and sometimes territories), which matches the "grants to states" framing in the title and description. The opportunity anticipates up to 53 awards, suggesting broad state and territory coverage rather than a small, highly competitive set of recipients.

From a funding perspective, the award ceiling is $3,479,750, meaning individual awards may be made up to that maximum amount depending on the program design, state allocation methodology, and the details in the full announcement. The opportunity was created on July 14, 2023, with an original closing date of August 18, 2023. Applications were required to be submitted electronically no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date, which is a standard ETA submission requirement and is important for deadline planning because late submissions are commonly not accepted absent very limited exceptions described in the full solicitation.

For applicants or stakeholders who needed clarification, the announcement specifies a point of contact: questions could be emailed to Bryana Head at head.bryana.f@dol.gov. This indicates ETA provided a designated program contact for administrative or technical questions related to the opportunity, which is typical for federal discretionary grant competitions and allocation-based grant announcements.

In summary, this ARPA-funded ETA grant opportunity provided states with discretionary funding to reinforce unemployment insurance program integrity, with a sizeable potential award amount per recipient, an expected nationwide set of awards, and a defined electronic submission deadline in August 2023.
