The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) is amending Administrative Code rule 5101:9-31-02 "Workforce Investment Act (WIA) initial formulary allocation methodology" to reflect changes brought about with the implementation of the County Finance Information System (CFIS). The rule is not applicable to funding provisions in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).

Effective with the issuance of Program Year 2009 (i.e., July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2011) WIA funds, the funding amount available for transfer between the adult and dislocated worker programs changed from 50% to 30%.

Local WIA areas will no longer be required to submit a Request for Transfer of WIA Funds (JFS 01160). The Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance will notify the local areas of the specific CFIS coding established to facilitate the transfer of WIA funds between the adult and dislocated worker grants.

Questions may be directed to your ODJFS fiscal supervisor or to the Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance at (614) 752-9194.
