The bill would not provide any federal benefits to surviving relatives of those individuals. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3449 would result in no significant cost to the federal government because we expect there would be few applications for posthumous citizenship. Under the bill there would be no fee to apply for posthumous citizenship, however, the Department of Homeland Security would spend fees collected for other immigration services, without future appropriation, to process those applications. Because enacting the bill would affect direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues. H.R. 3449 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
