ETA to Centralize Processing with Closing of Four Regional Offices

The U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA) has announced that it is closing several regional offices in order to provide a more unified system for filing and processing. Filing and processing activities will now be handled by two National Processing Centers in Atlanta and Chicago, and two Backlog Elimination Centers in Philadelphia and Dallas. Regional offices in Boston and Seattle have been closed, while New York and San Francisco are presently winding down their operations.
