Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor herein
presents the results of an investigation regarding certification
of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers
in such workers' firm have become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened to become totally or
partially separated;
(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers'
firm to a foreign country in the production of articles
or supply of services like or directly competitive with
those produced/supplied by the workers' firm; OR
(II) there has been an acquisition from a
foreign country by the workers' firm of
articles/services that are like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers' firm; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have contributed
importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on August 4, 2015 by the State Workforce Office on behalf
of workers of CRIF Corporation, d/b/a CRIF Lending Solutions,
Quality Assurance Department, Baton Rouge, Louisiana (TA-W-90,096)
and CRIF Corporation, d/b/a CRIF Lending Solutions, Development
Department, Baton Rouge, Louisiana (TA-W-90,096A). The workers'
firm is engaged in activities related to the supply of loan
origination software and related support services.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have become
totally or partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers' firm
has shifted to a foreign country the supply of a(n) service like
or directly competitive with those supplied by the subject workers
which contributed importantly to worker separations at the
Quality Assurance and Development Departments.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of CRIF Corporation, d/b/a
CRIF Lending Solutions, Quality Assurance Department and
Development Department, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who are engaged in
activities related to the supply of loan origination software and
related support services, meet the worker group certification
criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In
accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make
the following certification:
"All workers of CRIF Corporation, d/b/a CRIF Lending
Solutions, Quality Assurance Department, Baton Rouge,
Louisiana (TA-W-90,096) and CRIF Corporation, d/b/a CRIF
Lending Solutions, Development Department (TA-W-90,096A),
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after January 1, 2014 through
two years from the date of certification, and all workers in
the group threatened with total or partial separation from
employment on the date of certification through two years
from the date of certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended."

Signed in Washington, D.C., this 9th day of January, 2016
