Designation and Determination Under the Foreign Missions Act

    Pursuant to the authority vested in the Secretary of State by the 
laws of the United States, including the Foreign Missions Act, codified 
at 22 U.S.C. 4301-4316 (the ``Act''), and delegated by the Secretary to 
me as the Under Secretary of State for Management in Delegation of 
Authority No. 198, dated September 16, 1992, and after due 
consideration of the benefits, privileges, and immunities provided to 
missions of the United States abroad, as well as matters related to the 
protection of the interests of the United States, I hereby under 
section 202(a)(1) of the Act (22 U.S.C. 4302(a)(1)) designate 
employment authorization for dependents of foreign mission members in 
the United States as a benefit for purposes of section 204 of the Act 
(22 U.S.C. 4304).
    I determine that employment authorization for dependents of foreign 
mission members shall be provided on such terms and conditions as the 
Office of Foreign Missions (OFM) may approve. Specifically, on the 
basis of reciprocity, and following notification to the foreign 
mission, OFM may require payment of a surcharge, or may impose 
processing delays, require additional documentation, or impose other 
restrictions or burdens on the foreign mission and/or applicant.
    This action is reasonably necessary on the basis of reciprocity to 
protect the interests of the United States, adjust for costs and 
procedures of obtaining benefits for missions of the United States 
abroad, and carry out the policy set forth in section 201(b) of the Act 
(22 U.S.C. 4301(b)).

    Dated: October 25, 2016.
Patrick F. Kennedy,
Under Secretary for Management, Department of State.
