(1)Travel to and attendance at job fairs and interviews;
(2)Travel to and attendance at prevocational workshops;
(3)Making an in-person visit with a potential employer who may reasonably be expected to have openings for suitable employment;
(4)Completing a job application in person with a potential employer who may reasonably be expected to have openings for suitable employment;

(b)A State must grant a relocation allowance to an AAW to help the worker and the worker's family relocate within the United States if the AAW meets the requirements in this subpart. A State may grant a relocation allowance to a worker only once under a certification. A State may grant a relocation allowance to only one member of a family for the same relocation, even if there are multiple AAWs in the same family. If more than one member of a family applies for a relocation allowance for the same relocation, then the State must pay the allowance to the AAW who files first, if that AAW is otherwise eligible.
