States and outlying areas are eligible to apply for formula-based funding to support workforce information services, labor market information products, and employment-related labor exchange activities. Key requirements include submission of electronically signed SF-424 applications through Grants.gov within 30 days of the guidance letter's issuance (deadline: May 29, 2026), compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and adherence to salary caps limiting individual compensation to Executive Level II rates.
