I filed a petition currently under review by the Department of Labor but I think I want the benefits available under the new TAA program. What should I do?
In order to be eligible for benefits under the new TAA program instead of the benefits under the old TAA program, workers must be covered by a petition filed on or after May 18, 2009. You (the petitioner) have the option of withdrawing the petition currently under investigation before a determination is made on that petition, then filing a new petition on or after May 18, 2009. If the new petition is certified, workers covered by that petition will be eligible to apply for benefits under the new TAA program.
