Is all that paper weighing down and slowing down the management of your WOTC program? Streamline with CertLink.

Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) is a federal tax credit available to employers who hire individuals from eligible target groups with significant barriers to employment. The CertLink online system allows employers and employer consultants to apply for and manage WOTC applications and certifications, and allows state workforce agencies (and other participating agencies) to administer the WOTC program. CertLink is available as a standalone product.

• Secured, state-specific web application for ease of access.
• Self-service for employers and employer consultants including batch file processing.
• Built-in data entry validation.
• Pre-formatted letters and certifications.
• Online federal reports.
• System access restricted by user type (WOTC Certification, Data Entry, Management, and Employer and Employer Consultant users).
• Customizable banners, icons, letterhead, and more.
• Continuously updated with new federal and state mandates at no additional cost.
• AJLA–TS hosted for premium technical support and performance.

Full Service for Employers and Employer Consultants

Wondering how to reduce demands on WOTC data entry staff?
