The State Department seeks information on facilities, equipment, personnel and their movements, as well as technologies and associated organizations. Its Rewards for Justice program also offers possible relocation for informants and their families.
The US State Department’s Rewards for Justice program is offering up to $20 million for information about Iran’s nuclear program. The offer also says an informant and their family may be eligible for relocation, decided case by case.
The offer follows a 2025 International Atomic Energy Agency report that Iran was enriching uranium to 60 percent purity. The offer page describes that level as a short technical step from the 90 percent required for a nuclear weapon.
The program seeks information on nuclear facilities, equipment and personnel, including scientists, as well as their movements. The State Department also seeks information about staff, technologies, capabilities, assets and associated organizations. It says the US is committed to countering any attempt by Iran to develop a nuclear weapons program.
The announcement directs people to submit information through Signal or its Tor-based tip line. The program’s FAQ gives (202) 702-7843 as the number for Signal messages.
Rewards for Justice says it keeps sources’ and recipients’ identities strictly confidential and does not publicly disclose the information submitted. Government officials are generally ineligible for payment unless they provide information outside their official duties.
A US investigating agency or embassy abroad must nominate an informant; people cannot nominate themselves. After a legal eligibility review, an interagency committee evaluates the nomination and makes a nonbinding recommendation to the Secretary of State. The secretary decides whether to authorize payment and may change the amount within the law. For a matter under federal criminal jurisdiction, the Attorney General must also agree before payment.
A nomination does not guarantee payment. The program says it considers factors including the value of the information, the threat mitigated, risks to the source and family, and the source’s cooperation. It does not pay for testimony.
Voters choose a local candidate and a political party, rather than a leader directly, as polling stations open for the final day of voting.
The offer page says Iran’s lack of compliance with its monitoring obligations caused the atomic agency to lose continuity of knowledge about the production and inventory of components such as centrifuges, machines used to enrich uranium.
Fox News said President Donald Trump met his national-security team on 5 November to consider renewed strikes, while the US and Iran continued negotiations over the nuclear program. On 6 November, Trump reiterated that Iran would not be permitted to obtain a nuclear weapon, pointing to previous US operations against its nuclear facilities.
The outlet said US Central Command was preparing for a possible resumption of major operations in Iran but had received no new directive from Washington, citing reports attributed to a US official. Trump said Washington would make a decision on resuming the war.
