3-Franchise Tax Certification.pdf

This is a Texas Corporate Franchise Tax Certification form required by Workforce Solutions Alamo for contract eligibility purposes under the Pre-Eligibility Services – Child Care Formula (CCF) program in Texas. The certification document, referenced as Attachment E, is mandated pursuant to Article 2.45 of the Texas Business Corporation Act and ensures that only organizations current on state franchise tax payments are eligible to contract with the agency. Proposing organizations must indicate their tax compliance status by selecting one of three options: certification that the for-profit corporation is current on franchise tax payments, certification that the organization is a not-for-profit corporation or otherwise exempt from franchise tax obligations, or acknowledgment that the applicant is not a corporation. The form requires signature by an authorized representative, along with the applicant organization's name, the representative's name and title, and the certification date.

The certification serves as a compliance verification mechanism to prevent delinquent for-profit corporations from entering into contracts with Workforce Solutions Alamo. Organizations must understand that providing false statements on the certification will disqualify them from contracting opportunities. The form applies to the Pre-Eligibility Services – Child Care Formula contract opportunity, which funds allowable pre-eligibility services that support the administration and delivery of child care services by ensuring applications, documentation, and income calculations meet Texas Workforce Commission and Child Care Services eligibility requirements. These pre-eligibility services are considered reasonable and necessary costs that support program performance requirements including timeliness, accuracy, compliance, and reduction of incomplete or delayed applications.
