The U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund (USVSST Fund) provides
compensation to individuals (or a personal representative of a deceased
individual) who hold a final judgment issued by a United States District Court
awarding the individual compensatory damages. The judgment must arise from
acts of international terrorism for which a foreign state sponsor of terrorism was
found not immune from the jurisdiction of U.S. courts under the Foreign
Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA). Individuals must submit applications not later
than 90 days after the date of obtaining the final judgment.
