establish eligibility and qualifications at 

U.S. Embassies, Consulates, and 

Missions abroad. The respondents are 

locals who live in the 175 countries 

abroad and who are applying for a 

position at the U.S. Embassy, Consulate

Family members who are accompanying 

their partners to assignments in the U.S.

Methodology 

Candidates for employment use the

approximately 1 million applications 

per year, the majority of which are 

collected electronically using an 

applicant management system, 

Electronic Recruitment Application 

(ERA). Data that HR and hiring officials 

extract from the DS–0174 determine 

employment eligibility and 

qualifications for the position, and 

selections according to Federal Policies.

providing notice of the allocations of 

additional fiscal year (FY) 2021 in-quota

the United States (HTSUS), the United 

States maintains WTO TRQs for imports 

of raw cane and refined sugar. Section 

404(d)(3) of the Uruguay Round 

Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 3601(d)(3)) 

authorizes the President to allocate the 

in-quota quantity of a TRQ for any 

agricultural product among supplying 

countries or customs areas. The 

President delegated this authority to the 

U.S. Trade Representative under 

Presidential Proclamation 6763 (60 FR 

1007). 

On August 24, 2021, the Secretary of 

Agriculture announced an additional inquota quantity of the TRQ for raw cane 

sugar for the remainder of FY 2021 

(ending September 30, 2021) in the 

amount of 90,100 metric tons raw value 

(MTRV). The conversion factor is 1 

metric ton equals 1.10231125 short tons. 

This quantity is in addition to the 

minimum amount to which the United 

States is committed under the WTO 

Uruguay Round Agreements (1,117,195 

MTRV). 

The Secretary of Agriculture also has 

determined that all sugar entering the 

United States under the FY 2021 raw 

sugar TRQ will be permitted to enter 

U.S. Customs territory through October 

31, 2021, a month later than the usual 

last entry date. The U.S. Trade 

Representative is allocating this 

additional quantity of 90,100 MTRV to 

the following countries in the amounts 

specified below:
