This law authorizes federal money for programs under this chapter and sets the rules for paying it to states. The Secretary certifies payments to states that have an approved unemployment law, coordinate employment services with unemployment claims, and follow this chapter's rules. Starting in fiscal year 1985, funding runs on program years that begin each July 1, and states get two extra years to spend money before it's taken back.

(a) Authorization of appropriations — Congress authorizes spending, from any money in the Treasury not already committed elsewhere, whatever amount it decides is needed each year to carry out this chapter's purposes. (b) Certification for payment to States — The Secretary tells the Secretary of the Treasury to pay each state that: (1) — except for Guam — has an unemployment compensation law approved under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act and follows section 503 of title 42; (2) has coordinated its public employment services with its unemployment insurance claims process; and (3) follows this chapter's rules. The amount paid is whatever the Secretary decides is needed, allotted according to section 49e of this title. (c) Availability of appropriations — (1) Starting with fiscal year 1985, money appropriated for programs under this chapter can only be spent based on a "program year," which starts each July 1 within that fiscal year. (2) Money given to a state for one program year can be spent during that year and the two years after it — states don't lose money just because they're spending it at a rate that matches their approved program plan.
