Application process
The first step is pre-screening to determine eligibility.
The jobseeker or the
employer must complete the Individual Characteristics Form, and Form 8850. Check
out the Division of Career Services (pdf) form
WOTC Request for Verification (Form
#2099). The employer and the jobseeker must complete the
Pre-Screening Notice and Certification Request for the Work Opportunity and
Welfare-to-Work Credits, Form 8850.
The employer and the jobseeker must sign the Form 8850, under penalty of
perjury, attesting that the jobseeker is a member of a target group. The
employer then sends the forms to the Division of Career Services postmarked no
later than the 21st calendar day after the jobseeker begins work.
