REWARD PROCESS

When a person provides information that prevents or favorably resolves an act of international terrorism against U.S. persons or property, a U.S. Government agency may nominate that person for a reward payment.

An interagency rewards committee evaluates the information provided and recommends to the Secretary of State whether a reward should be paid, and if so, its amount. The committee is chaired by a Department of State official and includes representatives from the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Justice, and Treasury, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the National Security Council.

The recommendation on the amount of the reward payment is based on a number of factors, including the credibility, specificity, and value of the information provided, the seriousness of the danger to U.S. persons or property, the risk faced by the informant and his/her family, and the degree of the informant’s cooperation with relevant authorities.

All rewards are ultimately at the discretion of the Secretary of State.The Attorney General also mustconcur with the decision to pay areward in any case where federaljurisdiction exists.

Rewards can be paid in a variety of ways — check, wire transfer, and cash. Non-monetary reward payments are also available.
