Application Tips and Tricks – Additional Guidance on Certified Transcripts of Payroll (“CTPs”)

The Program Administrator publishes Tips and Tricks to help support stakeholders in avoiding project applications from resulting in a Need Info request and delaying their review and approval. 

  • Additional Guidance on Certified Transcripts of Payroll (“CTPs”) 
    • Only CTPs that have been issued from the Illinois Department of Labor (“IDOL”) are acceptable.  
    • Please do not submit the following for CTPs. Submitting unnecessary documents will delay processing time. 
      • IDOL applications/submission forms 
      • United States Department of Labor (“USDOL”) CTPs 
    • There is no need to submit CTPs for weeks in which no work is performed. If these are included in a bulk file along with CTPs for weeks in which work is performed, that is permissible. 
    • Please ensure the address on the CTP reflects the actual project location and is consistent with the address listed in the application.
