* The USVSST Fund is set to cease making obligations after January 1, 2039, so sufficient funding is set aside for the USVSST Fund through its sunset date. This set-aside is necessary to ensure that the USVSST Fund has resources to continue to operate, issue eligibility determinations, distribute victim payments, collect deposits, and provide support to the victim population for the entire lifetime of the USVSST Fund, given the unpredictable case deposits and the lack of any enacted recurring or other future appropriations.
