Required next actionVerification Hold for ORIGINAL outreach and publication. The November 2, 2026 due date and email submission to CAAR@cde.ca.gov are now authoritatively confirmed by CDE's September 24 letter and Form J-3 instructions. Exact submission clock time and time zone remain unstated; do not infer them. If that ambiguity is resolved, clear applicant-specific CRM, Contact, Email_Opt_Out, permanent-bounce, sent-history, Atlas_Email_Queue, and cross-lane deduplication gates before any ORIGINAL outreach.
Broad Eligibility
Funding is for California county offices of education administering UIMS for school employers participating in the School Employees Fund. CDE's current Form J-3 requires one form per county, reports covered employees working during October 2026, excludes community college district employees, requires County Superintendent review and approval, and requires a signed Form J-3 submitted to CAAR@cde.ca.gov on or before November 2, 2026.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score 35/100. This is a narrow state apportionment/reimbursement mechanism for county offices of education administering unemployment-insurance functions, not a competitive healthcare, EMS, rural-health, or technology procurement opportunity. N9+ Fit 0/100 and QC Healthcare direct-vendor fit 0/100 on current materials. CDE now confirms the November 2, 2026 due date and email submission method, but does not state an exact submission clock time or time zone. Keep ORIGINAL outreach and publication on Verification Hold unless that material ambiguity is authoritatively resolved.
