Claiming WOTC incentives requires pre-screening on or before the day the job is offered and submission with qualifying documentation within 28 days of the new hire’s start date.

Claiming the WOTC requires applicant pre-screening and collecting supporting documentation, obtaining signatures, submitting on time to state agencies according to agency-specific rules, responding to state agency communications, and procuring and storing DOL Form 9063.

Hires from any of the groups below qualify:

  • Veterans experiencing unemployment

  • Members of families receiving TANF
  • Residents of Empowerment Zones and Rural Renewal Counties
