including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Evaluate whether and if so how the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or

    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: The U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism 
Fund (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 42 U.S.C. 10609(c), an 
eligible claimant is (1) a U.S. person, as defined in 42 U.S.C. 
10609(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, 2008); (2) a U.S. person, as 
defined in 42 U.S.C. 10609(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, and 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 Fund's Application Form will be 
used to determine whether applicants are eligible for compensation from 
the 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 Justice for Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Act to determine 
whether a claimant is eligible for payment from the Fund, including 
information related to: Participation in federal lawsuits against a 
state sponsor of terrorism under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act; 
being taken and held hostage at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, Iran, from 
the period beginning November 4, 1979, and ending January 20, 1981; or 
being spouses and children of such hostages. The compensation parts 
seek the information required by the Justice for Victims of State 
Sponsored Terrorism Act to determine the amount of compensation for 
which the claimant is eligible. Specifically, the compensation parts 
seek information regarding any payments from sources other than the 
Fund 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 and the amount of compensatory damages 
awarded the claimant in a final judgment.
    5. An estimate of the total number of applicants and the amount of 
time estimated for an average applicant to respond: It is estimated 
that 700 respondents may complete the Application Form. It is estimated 
that respondents will complete the paper form in an average of 2 hours, 
and the electronic form in an average of 1.5 hours.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The estimated public burden associated with this 
collection is 1,400 hours.
