Abstract:
Collection information instruments dealing with information collection from the foreign mission community, to include the electronic data compilation (e-Gov), have been combined under one information collection request, collectively referred to as the "Foreign Diplomatic Services Applications." These information collection instruments provide the Office of Foreign Missions and the Office of the Chief of Protocol with the information necessary to provide and administer an effective and efficient benefits, privileges, and immunities program by which foreign missions and eligible applicants may apply for benefits from the U.S. Department of State, to which they are entitled pursuant to the Foreign Missions Act.

Changing Forms
Short Statement:
Two new forms (DS-4298 and DS-4299) have been added to this collection as a result of new program requirements, and account for 2,880.25 hours. The DS-4298 was created as some foreign mission and international organization personnel who entered the United States on A or G visas are not entitled to criminal and civil immunity and therefore are ineligible for diplomatic motor vehicle services. Applicants must apply for a non-eligibility letter, issued by OFM, in order to receive motor vehicle services at a local Department of Motor Vehicle facility.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$4,892,296
