(1) They are enrolled in a Title III program.
(2) They are not earning a wage.
(3) Their unemployment compensation payments have been exhausted under any State or Federal program, including specific eligibility under the Trade Act of 1974 (93-618, 19 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq.), as amended.
Individuals who are otherwise eligible for employment or training services may not be denied such services by reason of being eligible for needs-based payments which could be provided under this act.

The maximum payment shall not exceed the maximum cash assistance payment for that county: Provided, however, That participants with no other income shall be eligible to receive up to the maximum payment level. Participants with other sources of income shall be eligible to receive a needs-based payment consistent with the level authorized for participants in the Title II1 program operated in the area.
(c) Extent of payment.--Payments shall be made up to the extent to which funds are appropriated for the program, but in no case will payments be permitted for a period of training which exceeds two years.
(d) Suspension of payment.--Each recipient of a Title III grant must assure that payments are disallowed for days of training which the participant fails to attend.
