Overview of This Information
Collection
1. Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a currently approved
collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection:
Application Form for the United States
Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism
Fund (USVSST Fund).
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
There is no agency form number for this
collection. The applicable component
within the Department of Justice is the
Criminal Division, USVSST Fund.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Primary: Individuals or households.
Abstract: The USVSST Fund was
established to provide compensation to
certain individuals who were injured as
a result of acts of international terrorism
by a state sponsor of terrorism. Under
the Justice for United States Victims of
State Sponsored Terrorism Act (Act), 34
U.S.C. 20144(c), as amended, an eligible
claimant is (1) a U.S. person, as defined
in 34 U.S.C. 20144(j)(8), with a final
judgment issued by a U.S. district court
under state or federal law against a state
sponsor of terrorism and arising from an
act of international terrorism, for which
the foreign state was found not immune
under provisions of the Foreign
Sovereign Immunities Act, codified at
28 U.S.C. 1605A or 1605(a)(7) (as such
section was in effect on January 27,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:32 Sep 21, 2022
Jkt 256001
2008); (2) a U.S. person, as defined in
34 U.S.C. 20144(j)(8), who was taken
and held hostage from the United States
Embassy in Tehran, Iran, during the
period beginning November 4, 1979,
and ending January 20, 1981; or the
spouse and child of that U.S. person at
that time, who is also identified as a
member of the proposed class in case
number 1:00–CV–03110 (EGS) of the
United States District Court for the
District of Columbia; or (3) the personal
representative of a deceased individual
in either of those two categories.
The information collected from the
USVSST Fund’s Application Form will
be used to determine whether
applicants are eligible for compensation
from the USVSST Fund, and if so, the
amount of compensation to be awarded.
The Application Form consists of parts
related to eligibility and compensation.
The eligibility parts seek the
information required by the Act to
determine whether a claimant is eligible
for payment from the USVSST Fund,
including information related to
participation in federal lawsuits against
a state sponsor of terrorism under the
Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. The
compensation parts seek the
information required by the Justice for
United States Victims of State
Sponsored Terrorism Act, as amended,
to determine the amount of
compensation for which the claimant is
eligible. Specifically, the compensation
parts seek information regarding the
amount of compensatory damages
awarded the claimant in a final
judgment as well as any payments from
sources other than the USVSST Fund, as
defined in 34 U.S.C. 20144(j)(6), that the
claimant received, is entitled to receive,
or is scheduled to receive, as a result of
the act of international terrorism by a
state sponsor of terrorism. The
Application Form was revised with
formatting changes and removal of
certain information requests to
minimize respondents’ collection
burden. There are changes in the revised
Application Form, but it contains the
same information regarding eligibility
and compensation.
The USVSST Fund may require an
eligible claimant to supplement his or
her application by submitting additional
forms. These additional supplementary
forms include information related to: (1)
An acknowledgment and certification
by applicants and their attorneys
regarding the statutory provision on the
amount of attorneys’ fees; (2) an
authorization for the USVSST Fund to
communicate with individuals
identified by an applicant regarding his
or her claim; (3) a certification of the
personal representative of a deceased
PO 00000

individual regarding the USVSST Fund
award for the decedent’s estate; (4) a
claimant’s decision to change an
attorney or representative; (5) a hearing
request upon receipt of a decision
denying the claim in whole or in part;
and (6) electronic payment information.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: It is estimated that 700
respondents may complete the
Application Form. It is estimated that
respondents will complete the paper
form or the electronic form in an
average of 1.25 hours.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this collection is 875
hours.

Abstract: The purpose of the National
Science Foundation’s (NSF) Account
Profile is to collect information (contact
information, demographic information,
and academic/professional information)
on Research.gov. This profile will assist
the NSF in maintaining a centralized
registration and profile management
process for individuals. NSF may track
information provided over time to
review and evaluate NSF programs,
facilitate proposal submission, simplify
reviewer activities, and provide data for
the selection and management of
reviewers and related merit review
functions. Collecting this information
supports the program officers across
each directorate by improving
efficiencies for internal staff, leveraging
consolidated profile data, and creating a
seamless user experience for the
scientific community. This process will
also provide researchers with a
consolidated profile and access to their
information in the Research.gov system,
with the ability to easily access and
update their information as necessary
over the course of their respective
research career and in all official
interactions with NSF, as applicant,
awardee (Fellow, Principal Investigator
(PI), co-PI, subawardee, consultant),
institutional representative, reviewer, or
in other roles. In addition, the Biden
Administration has made it a priority to
deliver services more equitably and
effectively via Executive Order 14058,
Transforming Federal Customer
Experience and Service Delivery to
Rebuild Trust in Government. The
President directed heads of agencies to
integrate activities to improve customer
experience and identify means by which
their respective agencies can improve
transparency and accessibility for their
customers. This expansion effort will
allow users, including those with a
Principal Investigator role, a Reviewer
role, or those applying to the Graduate
Research Fellowship Program (GRFP),
or those designated as current Fellow
with GRFP, to self-report and selfmanage demographic and academic/
professional information over the course
of their respective research careers.
Use of the Information: Information
collected as part of the NSF Account
Profile (contact information,
demographic information, and
academic/professional information) on
Research.gov will enable program
officials to select diverse panels and
expand opportunities to increase
participation from underrepresented
groups and diverse institutions
throughout the United States in all NSF
activities and programs. The
information provided over time will
