determinations regarding eligibility to apply for trade adjustment
assistance for workers by (TA-W) number issued during the period of

In order for an affirmative determination to be made for workers of
a primary firm and a certification issued regarding eligibility to
apply for worker adjustment assistance, each of the group eligibility
requirements of Section 222(a) of the Act must be met.
I. Under Section 222(a)(2)(A), the following must be satisfied:

component parts produced outside the United States that are like or
directly competitive with imports of articles incorporating one or more
component parts produced by such firm have increased;
(D) Imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles
which are produced directly using services supplied by such firm, have
increased; and
(4) The increase in imports contributed importantly to such
workers' separation or threat of separation and to the decline in the
sales or production of such firm; or
II. Section 222(a)(2)(B) all of the following must be satisfied:
(1) A significant number or proportion of the workers in such
workers' firm have become totally or partially separated, or are

competitive with those produced/supplied by the workers' firm; and

supplied to the firm described in paragraph (2) accounted for at least
20 percent of the production or sales of the workers' firm; or

in paragraph (2) contributed importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation.

for worker adjustment assistance, each of the group eligibility
requirements of Section 222(f) of the Act must be met.
