Introduction
This training course will cover the how to in developing evidence

that we are a constitutional but not statutory citizen
If you use these techniques, you will likely generate evidence that
you are not a statutory U.S. citizen pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1401 that
will stand up in court
This evidence is useful especially in tax litigation, because the IRS
loses its jurisdiction if you claim you are a nonresident alien and
do not have any income from the U.S. government or a trade or
business. Once you have the proper evidence, IRS must treat your
estate as a foreign estate pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7701(a)(31)
This sidebar builds on information presented in our previous training
course entitled Citizenship and Sovereignty
Much of these procedures are covered in the section 2.5.3.13 of the
following using forms contained in section 3.6. This manual is

Rebuttal of Frequent
Flawed Citizenship Arguments
Citizenship is widely misunderstood by the American public.
That misunderstanding has been created and perpetuated by
a corrupt government and legal profession.
The MOST important subject you can learn about is
citizenship. It regulates every aspect of how the government
interacts with those it is charged with protecting.
The most frequent misunderstandings about citizenship
relate to the Fourteenth Amendment.
Until these misunderstandings are eliminated through
education, there is NO HOPE of ever reforming a corrupted
government.

Federal Statutory Citizenship

Statuses Diagram
"The term 'United States' may be used in any one of several
senses. 1) It may be merely the name of a sovereign
occupying the position analogous to that of other sovereigns
in the family of nations. 2) It may designate the territory over
which the sovereignty of the United States extends, or 3) it
may be the collective name of the states which are united by
and under the Constitution." [Numbering Added]
[Hooven & Allison Co. v. Evatt, 324 U.S. 652, (1945)]
The options from above are:
US1 - Context used in matters describing our sovereign country within the
family of nations.
US2 - Context used to designate the territory over which the Federal
Government is sovereign.
US3 - Context used regarding the sovereign states of the Union united by
and under the Constitution.
Now lets put the various federal statutory citizenship

statuses into a diagram to make their relationships crystal

A Sovereign is foreign with respect to federal and state
civil jurisdiction. See:
http://famguardian.org/Subjects/Freedom/Sovereignty/Sovereign=Foreign.htm
His/her estate is a foreign estate pursuant to 26 U.S.C.

7701(a)(31)
A person is a Sovereign because he/she did not surrender
their sovereignty by:
Setting foot on privileged federal territory and committing a crime while

physically there.
Claiming a domicile on federal territory. People become citizens under
federal civil law by claiming a domicile in the statutory but not
constitutional United States. See:
Why Domicile and Becoming a Taxpayer Require Your Consent, Form #05.002

Being or claiming to be a statutory citizen pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1401.
28 U.S.C. 1603(b)(3) says that you cannot be a foreign state or
instrumentality of a foreign state if you fit the description of a statutory
citizen found in 28 U.S.C. 1332(c ) and (d). Instead, we must describe
ourselves as a national or a non-citizen national pursuant to 8 U.S.C.
1101(a)(21) and 8 U.S.C. 1452 and a constitutional Citizen. See:
Why You Are a national , state national, and Constitutional but not Statutory
Citizen, Form #05.006
Engaging in commerce of any kind within the legislative jurisdiction of

the federal government pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1605(a)(2). This type of
commerce includes
Either being in receipt of or being eligible to receive any federal benefit, such as
Social Security, Medicare, etc. or being a federal employee, instrumentality, or
public officer. See:

Restoring Our Sovereignty

We can therefore restore our Sovereignty as following:
1. Correcting the governments records to reflect our proper
citizenship status. This is done by:
Sending in the following form:
Legal Notice of Change in Domicile/Citizenship Records and Divorce from the United States, Form
#10.001
Correcting voter registration or un-registering to vote

Terminating old passport and getting a new one as a national and without a
federally issued number
Responding properly to jury summons
Using the proper IRS forms to describe our status. You cant use the IRS form 1040,
because it is for citizens and residents of the District of Columbia. The AMENDED
1040NR is the only proper form for human beings
Doing the following whenever we litigate in any court
Properly describing our status whenever we litigate in a court of law

Invoking constitutional diversity of citizenship pursuant to Constitution Article III, Section 2, but
NOT statutory diversity pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1332
2. Terminating all commercial relations with any and all governments.

This is done by:
Filing the proper tax form, which is the 1040NR instead of the 1040, and indicating no
trade or business earnings. See:
Federal Nonresident Nonstatutory Claim for Return of Funds Unlawfully Paid to the GovernmentLong, Form #15.001
24JUN2014
20
Restoring Our Sovereignty (cont)

Sending in the following form:
Resignation of Compelled Social Security Trustee, Form #06.002

Terminating all professional licenses that require an SSN or TIN.

Terminating our state drivers license, which can only be issued to those
engaged in commerce as federal employees. See:
Defending Your Right To Travel, Form #06.010
3. Avoiding satisfying any of the other criteria found in 28

U.S.C. 1605 for surrendering sovereignty.
4. Getting educated about sovereignty and personally using
the law to frequently defend our rights from those who
would oppress us. See:

Restoring Our Sovereignty (cont)

5. Avoiding the corrupted government or corrupted legal
profession like the plague. DO NOT do business with any of
them. Instead, we must:
Be entirely self-governing within our own lives and families so that we

never need the government or the legal profession for anything. See the
following free book:
Family Constitution, Form #13.003
Get married without a marriage license, so we dont enter into a

polygamous relationship with the state. See the following book:
Sovereign Christian Marriage, Form #13.009
Get rid of our state drivers license and get a private driving license. This
will eliminate our domicile within the corporate, federal State. See the
following book:
Defending your Right to Travel, Form #06.010
24JUN2014
22
Why Do We Need Evidence?
The government doesnt want you claiming that you are a national
or a state national pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(21), 8 U.S.C.
1101(a)(22)(B) and 8 U.S.C. 1452.
The reason the government doesnt want you claiming to be a
national is that you cannot be a foreign sovereign under the
Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, 28 U.S.C. 1602 and following as
a statutory U.S. citizen pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1401 but you CAN as
a national but not citizen. This is also confirmed by the
Department of State Website:
Section 1603(b) defines an "agency or instrumentality" of a foreign state as an entity

(1) which is a separate legal person, corporate or otherwise, and (2) which is an organ
of a foreign state or political subdivision thereof, or a majority of whose shares or
other ownership interest is owned by a foreign state or political subdivision thereof,
and (3) which is neither a [statutory] citizen of the a state of the United States as
defined in Sec. 1332(c) and (d) nor created under the laws of any third country.
[Department of State Website, http://travel.state.gov/law/info/judicial/judicial_693.html]
The basis for the above Dept of State Website statement originates
from 28 U.S.C. 1603(b)(3):
TITLE 28 > PART IV > CHAPTER 97 > 1603
1603. Definitions
For purposes of this chapter
(b) An agency or instrumentality of a foreign state means any entity
(3) which is neither a citizen of a State of the United States as defined in section 1332 (c)
and (d) of this title, nor created under the laws of any third country.
24JUN2014
23
Why Do We Need Evidence? (cont)

The government would rather that you claim to be a statutory
U.S. citizen under 8 U.S.C. 1401, because the income tax
is only imposed in Internal Revenue Code section 1 on
citizens and resident aliens, who collectively have a
domicile on federal territory not within any state of the Union
The Social Security Administration has actually CLASSIFIED
their citizenship records to hide and protect their FALSE and
INJURIOUS presumption that you are a statutory U.S.
citizen. See:
Social Security Admin FOIA for CSP Code Values, Exhibit #01.011
DIRECT LINK: http://sedm.org/Exhibits/EX01.011.pdf
EXHIBITS PAGE: http://sedm.org/Exhibits/ExhibitIndex.htm
The courts have said:
"Unless the defendant can prove he is not a citizen of the United

States, the IRS has the right to inquire and determine a
tax liability."
[U.S. v. Slater, 545 Fed. Supp. 179,182 (1982).]
24JUN2014
24
Why Do We Need Evidence? (cont.)

Nonresident aliens and resident aliens are not equivalent
or interchangeable in the tax code
Nonresident alien income taxes are prescribed in 26 U.S.C.
871. Those not employed with, under contract with, or
receiving payments for the U.S. government can earn no
gross income under that section and therefore are
nontaxpayers
Therefore: Proving that you are not a statutory citizen of the
United States pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1401 and the I.R.C. is
important!
A state national or a national pursuant to 8 U.S.C.
1101(a)(21) or 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(22)(B) or a non-citizen
national pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1452 are not a statutory
citizen of the United States or U.S. citizen under I.R.C.
Subtitle A. See:
Youre Not a citizen under the Internal Revenue Code

Why We Want to be nationals or state nationals
nationals are not subject to most federal statutes and codes

nationals are nonresident aliens under 26 U.S.C. 7701(b)(1)(B)
nationals file the form 1040NR. It says that right on the form
nationals pay I.R.C. Subtitle A income taxes as follows:
BUT(!):
gross income which is effectively connected with a trade or business within the [federal] United
States under 26 U.S.C. 871(b). This is a graduated rate income tax
gross income not effectively connected with a trade or business within in the [federal] United States
that originates from the District of Columbia at a flat rate of 30% under 26 U.S.C. 871(a)
There is no liability statute anywhere in 26 U.S.C. making anyone responsible to pay taxes under Subtitle
A of the Internal Revenue Code
One cannot earn gross income until they first earn income, and the Supreme Court has never
defined income to mean anything other than corporate profit, because the income tax is an indirect
excise tax on corporate privileges associated with foreign commerce and defined in 26 U.S.C. 7001!
26 U.S.C. 861(a)(3)(C) excludes earnings of nonresident aliens (which includes nationals) from gross
income
26 C.F.R. 1.872-2(f) says that all earnings of nonresident aliens not engaged in a trade or business do
are not includible in gross income. This effectively eliminates all sources of income from outside the
[federal] United States from being counted as gross income or being subject to tax
26 C.F.R. 31.3401(a)(6)-1(b) excludes earnings of nonresident aliens from income tax withholding
Therefore: most nationals and state nationals are nonresident aliens

under subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code are not liable to pay taxes or
withhold on their earnings or to file any income tax or withholding form

Definitions of Citizenship Terms
We must always be aware of the context in which we are using

citizenship terms, or we can become easily confused
There are four contexts:
Government forms
State statutes and codes
State constitutions
Federal statutes and codes
The U.S. Constitution
The term United States and citizen and citizen of the United
States have different legal meanings and definitions in each of the
above contexts.
THIS IS IMPORTANT AND OFTEN OVERLOOKED!
On government forms, the terms are seldom defined and they are
designed to be deliberately misleading in order to trap you into
creating a false presumption on the part of the government that you
are a statutory U.S. citizen under 8 U.S.C. 1401
If you are at all unsure about the context, then you should take the
time to unambiguously define exactly what the term means in the
document or form you are preparing to remove all possibility of false
presumption. This will prevent your rights from being prejudiced
What follows is a summary of definitions in the various contexts

Avoiding False Presumptions About Your Citizenship

It is important to avoid encouraging false presumptions
about your citizenship on government forms. The following
rules should help:
Do not use the word United States or U.S. in describing your
citizenship
Do not use the word citizen in describing your citizenship.
This creates a false presumption that you have a domicile within the jurisdiction
of the government. The only place that Christians can be citizens of is Heaven.
See: Philippians 3:20, Hebrews 11:13, 1 Peter 2:1, James 4:4, Romans 12:2
This term only has significance in a statutory context and you dont want to be
subject to any government statutes.
The best way to describe your citizenship:
Use the word national instead of citizen and relate it to a state of the Union
and NOT the federal government, or U.S. or United States.
Example: Im a California National but not a citizen.
Describe yourself as a transient foreigner, which is a person without a
domicile in a the place you are presently at.
Do not sign any government form that uses the word United States or
U.S. in describing your citizenship. If you are presented with a
government form that asks you if you are a U.S. citizen, then:
Line out U.S. citizen and put a note next to it:
See attached Affidavit of Citizenship, Domicile, and Tax Status. Application
NOT valid without WHOLE attachment.
Then fill out and attach the following:
Affidavit of Citizenship, Domicile, and Tax Status, Form #02.001
24JUN2014
33
Avoiding False Presumptions About Your Citizenship
WARNING!: DO NOT:
Fill out any government application for employment or benefits, because all such
applications:
Result in a surrender of your sovereignty and sovereign immunity pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

1605(a)(2).
Make you into a public official who is representing a federal corporation called the United
States, as defined in 28 U.S.C. 3002(15)(A). Pursuant to Fed.Rul.Civ.Proc. 17(b), you assume the
character of the corporation you represent and the laws that apply are those of the corporation,
which are the laws of the District of Columbia. Since the corporation is a U.S. citizen, then you
ALSO become a U.S. citizen. See:
Why Your Government is Either A Thief or you are a Public Officer For Income Tax Purposes, Form
#05.008
Describe yourself as a citizen. Instead use national

Describe yourself as anything that includes the words U.S. or United States.
Instead use the name of your state such as the following:
California national but not citizen
Describe yourself as a U.S. national. These people are born in American Samoa and
Swains Island pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1408. Instead use state national or national.
Describe yourself as a U.S. citizen. You must modify it to at least say National but
not citizen and preferably refer to the following:
Allow anyone to compel you to willfully misrepresent your status on a government
form. If they do, they are engaging in conspiracy to commit perjury under penalty of
perjury punishable under the following authorities:
24JUN2014
18 U.S.C. 1001: Statements or entries generally

18 U.S.C. 1621: Perjury generally
18 U.S.C. 1542: False statements in application and use of passport.

Passports as Evidence of Citizenship

What the Supreme Court says about Passports as evidence:
"...the only means by which an American can lawfully leave the country or return to it absent a Presidentially granted exception - is with a passport... As a travel control
document, a passport is both proof of identity and proof of allegiance to the United
States. Even under a travel control statute, however, a passport remains in a sense a
document by which the Government vouches for the bearer and for his conduct. "
[Haig v. Agee, 453 US 280 (1981)]
"It [a passport] is a document which, from its nature and object, is addressed to foreign
powers; purporting to only be a request that the bearer of it may pass safely and
freely, and it is to be considered rather in the character of a political document, by
which the bearer is recognized in foreign countries as an American citizen(sic), and
which, by usage and the law of nations, is received as evidence of that fact. But this is
a very different light from that in which it is to be viewed in a court of justice where the
inquiry is as to the fact of citizenship. It is a mere ex parte certificate; and, if founded
upon any evidence produced to the Secretary of State establishing the fact of
citizenship, that evidence, if of a character admissible in a court of justice, ought to be
produced upon the trial as higher and better evidence of the fact..."
[Urtetiqi v. D'Arbel, 9 Peters 692]
A person who has allegiance is a national
8 U.S.C. 1101 Definitions

(a)(21) The term national means a person owing permanent allegiance to a state.
24JUN2014

Applying for a Passport

The Department of State issues U.S. passports
Their Foreign Affairs Manual, 7 FAM 1100, does a very good
job describing citizenship but does not explain everything
you need to know:
http://foia.state.gov/masterdocs/07fam/07m1110.pdf
Form DS-11 is the form to apply for a U.S. passport:
Is written to encourage false presumption

Does not define the term U.S.
Does not define the term U.S citizen
Does not offer the option of national or state national for the
citizenship of your spouse or parents, even though this is what applies to
most persons born in states of the Union. Only option is U.S. citizen
YES or NO
Instructions do not indicate that states of the Union are nations and that
you can enter your state name under COUNTRY in block 2 for your
domicile address
We dont recommend using the governments standard form

without any modifications or an addendum, because it
encourages false presumption.

presumption below:

Passports: Special Endorsements

If the Department of State approves you as a national, you
will know because page 24 will say you are a national
This special endorsement is the only way to get your status
specifically recognized in a passport
If the passport you were issued doesnt have the national
endorsement on page 24, you can request an amendment to
your passport using a form DS-19: Amendment Validation
Request, but you must otherwise follow our procedures in
order to qualify for the amendment
24JUN2014
41
Overcoming the Limitations of Passports as Evidence of Citizenship
Passports:
Simply say citizen/national on the back page and nothing more

Indicate on page 24 whether you are a non-citizen national under:
8 U.S.C. 1408 and 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(22)(B) if born in America and domiciled in a possession
8 U.S.C. 1452 if born in America and domiciled in either a possession or a state of the Union
Do not directly indicate exactly the type of citizenship you specified on your
application, unless you request an amendment on page 24 showing you are a
national and provide evidence to support the amendment
THEREFORE: most passports have almost no value as evidence of your citizenship.
There are only two ways to prove your citizenship status:
The Department of State will:
When you get a copy of your approved DS-11 passport application,

make sure it is certified or authenticated with the seal of the
Secretary of State so it is admissible as evidence in court under:
The approved DS-11 application form

The amendment/endorsement on page 24 showing you are a national
NOT give you a copy of the approved DS-11 application at the time they issue you the
passport.
Only provide you a copy of the completed application if you obtain it under their rules
and pay the $30 fee.

Certificates of Non-Citizen National Status
Mandated by Congress under 8 U.S.C. 1452

8 U.S.C. 1452 says the Secretary of State shall provide them
Documented in American Jurisprudence Legal Encyclopedia, 3C
Am.Jur.2d Section 2735, p. 235
http://famguardian.org/TaxFreedom/CitesByTopic/USNational-3CAmJur2732.pdf
Current policy of the Dept. of State:
Will NOT issue these, even though 8 U.S.C. 1452 says they have to
Their website says that if you want one of these, you should apply for a U.S. passport
INSTEAD. See:
http://travel.state.gov/noncit_cert.html
Local copy
Disadvantage of applying for a passport is that they dont give you a certified copy of
your approved application back that you can use as evidence, whereas the Certificate
of non-citizen National status does provide evidence.
We suspect that this change in policy not authorized by law is designed to eliminate
the availability of proof of non-citizen national status for use in income tax litigation
Way around this is to use the techniques on the previous slide to FOIA for the
approved DS-11 application at:

available from the Department of State, then I cant show you what

A person who claims to be a national, but not a citizen, of the United
States may apply to the Secretary of State for a certificate of noncitizen national status. Upon (1) proof to the satisfaction of the Secretary of State that the
applicant is a national, but not a citizen, of the United States, and
(2) in the case of such a person born outside of the United States or
its outlying possessions, taking and subscribing, before an
immigration officer within the United States or its outlying

Registering to Vote
Registering to vote is done by the county registrar of voters

Most state voter registration forms have a check box in all capital letters under
citizenship that says:
US CITIZEN: YES NO
Voter registration forms seldom define exactly what the term US CITIZEN
means on the form
If you fill out a voter registration form, since the terms arent defined, then the
following attachment form ensures that you define the term US CITIZEN
unambiguously so that it properly reflects your status as a non-resident to
federal jurisdiction. See:
http://famguardian.org/TaxFreedom/Forms/Emancipation/VoterRegAttachment.htm
If you use the attachment above, its best to put a notation on the voter
registration application in pen and ink at the bottom indicating:
Page ___ of ____

Not valid without enclosed signed attachment
After the registrar of voters accepts your voter registration, make sure you get
a certified copy for your records.
Some registrars of voters will give you trouble for using the above attachment
to clarify what you mean by US CITIZEN on the application. If they do, tell
them that they:
24JUN2014
Are violating your First Amendment right to free speech

Are depriving you of the right to vote, even though you claim to have allegiance and nationality requisite
to qualify

Jury Summons
Serving on jury duty is an important civic duty that keeps

our government honest and you should make every effort to
participate
Either the state of federal courts may summons you to
appear for jury service.
The jury summons will ask you if you are a US CITIZEN
without defining the term and ask you to send in the
completed form. This ambiguity is deliberate and is meant
to create a false presumption on the part of the government
that you are a statutory U.S. citizen pursuant to 8 U.S.C.
1401 .
To prevent false government presumptions based on the
form, we recommend writing on the jury summons response
above the signature
Not valid without attached Affidavit of Citizenship, Domicile, and Tax Status
and then attaching the following attachment to your Jury

Declaratory Judgments Relating to Citizenship
A declaratory judgment is a judgment issued by a court of competent

jurisdiction and which addresses the issues before the court absent
involvement by a jury
Declaratory judgments are commonplace in the context of
citizenship
The only type of declaratory judgment relating to citizenship that is
worth getting is one declaring you to be a anyone of the following,
which are all equivalent:
A national under 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(21), which is a person born
in America and domiciled in a state of the Union
U.S. national under 8 U.S.C. 1408 or 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(22)(B)
A non-citizen national under and 8 U.S.C. 1452, which
includes either of the two above statuses
There are two places you can get a declaratory judgment

about your citizenship status:
State court
Federal court
24JUN2014
49
Declaratory Judgments:
Requirements in State Court
We could find no references on obtaining declaratory
judgments about citizenship in state court
If you initiate your request for a declaratory judgment in state
court, the typical response is:
The state court will try to transfer the case to federal court
The state court will claim sovereign immunity, and thereby refuse to
recognize YOUR sovereign immunity as a national but not a citizen
Will claim they have no jurisdiction over the case, because it is a federal
matter, which is HOGWASH
You should be prepared for all of the devious abuses

documented above and have an argument against them in
your Petition for Declaratory Judgment
24JUN2014
50
Requirements in Federal Court
The process of obtaining declaratory judgments in federal court is

described in the American Jurisprudence Legal Encyclopedia, 2d
(also called Am.Jur.2d), Volume 3C, Aliens and Nationality, sections
2738 through 2752, pages 235-241.
WARNING: This procedure is for a declaratory judgment as a U.S.
National and NOT a national but not a citizen. It is only intended for
those born within American Samoa or Swains Island. No procedure is
documented anywhere we could find for obtaining a declaratory judgment
as a national or state national but not a U.S. National. Therefore,
you should use the above reference as a guide on how to do it, but
consider that it will need to be tailored for your unique circumstances.
Requirements for getting a declaratory judgment relating to

citizenship in federal court:
Cannot relate to an exclusion proceeding under the Immigration and Nationality Act
(INA). See 3C Am.Jur.2d 236
Denial of claim must be related to a right or privilege of being a U.S. national. See
3C Am.Jur.2d 236
Denial must have been of claim by person within the federal United States at the time
of the offense. Offense must occur inside the federal zone. NEVER admit that you
LIVE in the federal zone, only that the offense occurred in the federal zone. See 3C
Am.Jur.2d 237 and 8 USCA 1503(a).
24JUN2014
51
Requirements in Federal Court (cont)
Administrative remedies must have been exhausted. See 3C Am.Jur.2d 238
An actual controversy must exist. See 3C Am.Jur.2d 238
Must be instituted within 5 years after the final administrative denial of right occurred
based on lack of national of the United States status. See 3C Am.Jur.2d 239.
Must be brought against the head of the department or agency in the government that
violated your rights as a U.S. national. See 3C Am.Jur.2d 239-240
Court may require a blood test in the process. See 3C Am.Jur.2d 241.
There is no right of trial by jury! See 3C Am.Jur.2d 240
If there are not disputes over fact, the petition cannot be filed in a District Court and
must instead be filed in a Circuit Court
Bottom line: Since you dont get a jury trial and the outcome is
entirely up to a judge who is beholden to IRS extortion, your chances
of success in federal court are prejudiced. State court is better, and
then you can get the federal court to recognize the state ruling in the
proceeding against the official. If you do try to get the declaratory
judgment in federal court, emphasize that you dont have a domicile
in or reside in any judicial district, but that the offense occurred in
the district. This is important!
24JUN2014
52
Requirements in Federal Court
Where an alien has been ordered to remove him/herself from
the United States, 8 U.S.C. 1252(b)(5) says that declaratory
judgments relating to citizenship MUST be obtained in:
Federal District Court if there is a dispute with the government over facts
Federal Circuit Court if there is no dispute with the government over facts
of the dispute
Text of 8 U.S.C. 1252(b)(5):

TITLE 8 > CHAPTER 12 > SUBCHAPTER II > Part V > 1252
1252. Judicial review of orders of removal
(b) Requirements for review of orders of removal
(5) Treatment of nationality claims
(A) Court determination if no issue of fact If the petitioner claims to be a national of the
United States and the court of appeals finds from the pleadings and affidavits that no
genuine issue of material fact about the petitioners nationality is presented, the court
shall decide the nationality claim.
(B) Transfer if issue of fact If the petitioner claims to be a national of the United States
and the court of appeals finds that a genuine issue of material fact about the
petitioners nationality is presented, the court shall transfer the proceeding to the
district court of the United States for the judicial district in which the petitioner resides
for a new hearing on the nationality claim and a decision on that claim as if an action
had been brought in the district court under section 2201 of title 28.
(C) Limitation on determination The petitioner may have such nationality claim decided
only as provided in this paragraph.

Resignation of Compelled Social Security Trustee

We MUST quit Social Security in order to terminate
commercial relations with the government.
Participation in Social Security is the main thing that makes
us into taxpayers and public officers of the U.S.
You cannot collect federal benefits without working for the government.
See: http://famguardian.org/Subjects/Taxes/Articles/PublicVPrivateEmployment.htm
A person who works for the federal government is described in the I.R.C.
as a person effectively connected to a trade or business. See:
The Trade or Business Scam, Form #05.001
It is ILLEGAL for a person domiciled in a state of the Union to

participate in Social Security, Medicare, or any other federal
benefit.
The definition of State within the original 1935 Social Security Act itself,
section 1101(a)(1) does not include states of the Union
The definition of State within the current act, 42 U.S.C. 1301(a)(1) does
not include any state of the Union
Terminating SS participation is done using the following:

Filling out Government Tax Forms

Be careful filling out STANDARD government tax forms
because they try to create the following FALSE presumptions
about you:
That you are a taxpayer who made himself voluntarily subject to trade
or business federal franchise codified in I.R.C. Subtitles A and C
That you are a statutory U.S. citizen
That you are an individual, which is a public officer acting in a
representative capacity for the United States federal corporation defined
in 28 U.S.C. 3002(15)(A). See 5 U.S.C. 552a(a)(2) and (a)(13) for details.
To prevent false presumptions about your status, our

Member Agreement, Form #01.001 MANDATES that any
STANDARD government tax form you fill out MUST have the
following form attached:
Tax Form Attachment, Form #04.201

Filing Tax Returns
If you are a national but not a citizen, then you cant file the IRS
form 1040. IRS Document 7130 confirms that only statutory
citizens and statutory residents (aliens with a domicile) of the
District of Columbia pursuant to 8 U.S.C. 1401 and 26 U.S.C.
7701(b)(1)(A) can file IRS form 1040.

The only form that a national but not a citizen can file is the IRS
form 1040NR!
Dont undo all your hard work to document your status as a

national but not a citizen and a nonresident alien and then turn
around and lie to the IRS about your status under penalty of perjury
by submitting the WRONG form, the IRS form 1040, and thereby
discredit not only yourself, but us!

Filing Tax Returns
The above considerations are the reason why our Member

Agreement, Form #01.001 requires that you must file an Amended
IRS form 1040NR if you file any tax form. That form is found below:

Whenever you endorse the back of checks you are cashing,
be sure to write the following under your signature:
All rights reserved, UCC 1-308
A foreign estate under 26 U.S.C. 7701(a)(31)
The reason you are a foreign estate is because you are not
involved in a trade or business, which is a federal franchise
defined in 26 U.S.C. 7701(a)(26) as the functions of a public
office. That public office is in the United States government.

Social Security Numbers
Social Security Numbers are the property of the government, and

NOT you. See 20 C.F.R. 422.103(d). It is illegal to use public
property for a private purpose or for personal benefit. See 18
U.S.C. 641.
Title 20: Employees' Benefits

PART 422ORGANIZATION AND PROCEDURES
Subpart BGeneral Procedures
422.103 Social security numbers.
(d) Social security number cards.
A person who is assigned a social security number
will receive a social security number card from SSA
within a reasonable time after the number has been
assigned. (See 422.104 regarding the assignment of
social security number cards to aliens.) Social
security number cards are the property of SSA and
must be returned upon request.
24JUN2014
62

Social Security Numbers may only lawfully be issued to
federal employees and public officers. See 20 C.F.R.
422.104. It is for use ONLY on official duty while conducting
official government business. Note that 20 C.F.R. is entitled
employee benefits. The employee they are talking about
are public employees and federal instrumentalities!
20 C.F.R. 422.104 says that cannot get the number without
ALSO being a statutory U.S. citizen pursuant to 8 U.S.C.
1401 or U.S. resident (lawful permanent resident alien)
pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7701(b)(1)(A), who collectively are
both called U.S. persons under 26 U.S.C. 7701(a)(30).
People domiciled in legislatively foreign states such as states
of the Union cannot have ANY status under federal law,
including person, U.S. citizen, U.S. resident, or U.S.
person and may not lawfully ALIENATE constitutional rights
by acquiring such statuses per the Declaration of
Independence.
24JUN2014
63
Using a Social Security Number creates a usually false presumption that you
are:
A federal instrumentality, such as a public official, employee, agent, or contractor on

official business
domiciled in the United States, which is defined in the I.R.C. as the District of Columbia in
26 U.S.C. 7701(a)(9) and (a)(10). Both statutory U.S. citizens (8 U.S.C. 1401) and
residents (aliens, 26 U.S.C. 7701(b)(1)(A)) have in common a domicile in the United
States:
26 C.F.R. 301.6109-1(g)
(g) Special rules for taxpayer identifying numbers issued to foreign persons
(1) General rule-(i) Social security number. A social security number is generally identified in the records and
database of the Internal Revenue Service as a number belonging to a U.S. citizen or resident
alien individual. A person may establish a different status for the number by providing proof
of foreign status with the Internal Revenue Service under such procedures as the Internal
Revenue Service shall prescribe, including the use of a form as the Internal Revenue
Service may specify. Upon accepting an individual as a nonresident alien individual, the
Internal Revenue Service will assign this status to the individual's social security number.
5 U.S.C. 552a(a)(13) says that all those who receive immediate or deferred
federal retirement benefits are federal personnel. That means federal
employees. This includes Social Security, FICA, Medicare, and any other
federal benefit.

The federal employment or contract relationship is the main if not

ONLY thing that makes most people a taxpayer under I.R.C.

Social Security Numbers on Government Documents

NEVER put any Social Security Number on any government
document with your name on it because it creates a false
presumption that you are a federal instrumentality or
employee and either a statutory U.S. citizen under 8
U.S.C. 1401 or a statutory resident alien under 26 C.F.R.
1.1-1(a)(2)(ii). See 20 C.F.R. 422.104 for proof.
If you put a Social Security Number on any government form
and you are not in deed and in fact a federal instrumentality,
public official, or employee executing official government
business, then you are committing perjury under penalty of
perjury and a crime in violation of 18 U.S.C. 912:
TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 43 > 912
912. Officer or employee of the United States
Whoever falsely assumes or pretends to be an officer or employee
acting under the authority of the United States or any department,
agency or officer thereof, and acts as such, or in such pretended
character demands or obtains any money [GOVERNMENT
BENEFIT], paper, document, or thing of value, shall be fined under
this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
24JUN2014
66
Social Security Numbers on Government Documents
If you are asked for a number put one of the

following:
Nothing: Wait if they ask you. If they insist, put one of the
following 3
NA= None Available or Not Applicable
NONE= NONE or NONE TO GIVE
Privacy Act=you dont have to give it out. See 5 U.S.C. 552a
Fifth Amendment
42 U.S.C. 408=makes it a crime to compel disclosure of SSNs.
You arent obligated to explain what any of

the above mean to the agent. Since IRS
doesnt have to define the terms they use on
their forms, then neither do you! If they dont
have to tell the complete truth on their forms,
then so can you. See:
http://famguardian.org/Subjects/Taxes/Articles/IRSNotResponsible.htm
24JUN2014
67
Why you dont have a Social Security Number and why the
one you think you have isnt yours
A Social Security Number is a fact, a piece of information. It
is not a physical thing
You can only have a physical thing. Facts cannot be
possessed: they can only be understood
You cant have a fact, but you can know a fact
Knowing a fact does not make it belong to you, because
you cant own knowledge
You probably never asked for the number you think you
have. Your parents probably did before you reached
majority, and they do not have the right to contract for you
beyond the age of majority (18 years old)
After you die, the government will recycle what you think is
your number, so it was never really yours because you
dont have PERMANENT possession or control of it
If it was yours, you could lawfully order the IRS and the
government to STOP using it, but in fact they wont, so it
cant be yours
24JUN2014
68
Why you dont have a Social Security Number (cont.)

Definition of have from Merriam Websters Collegiate
Dictionary, 1983:
1. a: to hold or maintain as a possession, privilege, or entitlement;

2: to feel obligation in regard to;
3: to stand in a certain relation to;
4 a: to acquire or get possession of: OBTAIN; b: RECEIVE;
5 a: to be marked or characterized by
If the Social Security Number is to be considered a

privilege or an entitlement, then it must also be
contractual. Without a contract entitling you to collect, then
it cant be called entitlement. At best it is gambling, and the
right of entitlement is about as trustworthy as our
politicians ability to balance the budget
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that Social Security is not
a contract, so it cant be possessed and you cant have a
number because it doesnt guarantee anything. See
Helvering v. Davis, 301 U.S. 619 (1937) and
Flemming v. Nestor, 363 U.S. 603 (1960)
24JUN2014
69
Why you dont have a Social Security Number (cont.)

Declaration of Independence:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to
secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of the governed,
Any government power not derived from consent is unjust:
If you didnt consent to receive the number your parents gave you as a
minor, it is a usurpation and tyranny
Your parents do not have the right to contract for your beyond the age of
18
When you reach majority, you can eliminate your number and your
participation using:
SSA Form 521
IRS Form 4029
Even if decide to use an SSN, you do not have to consent in all cases to
use, and for those cases you dont consent to:
You dont have one because you choose not to possess it in that instance
You can truthfully put NONE
If you want to know more about the mandatory requirement

for consent to all government enforcement actions, see:
Requirement for Consent, Form #05.003

Compelled Use of Social Security Numbers

on Government Forms
The federal government or people acting as its agents cannot

lawfully penalize a human being for failing to provide an SSN on a
government form:
Article 1, Section 10 of the Constitution makes it unconstitutional for the government

to institute a Bill of Attainder, which is a penalty absent a court hearing
There are no implementing regulations authorizing any penalties on human beings for
failure to use or provide Social Security Numbers. See:
IRS Due Process Meeting Handout, Form #03.008
42 U.S.C. 408(a) makes it a felony to compel the disclosure of SSNs which could result
in a five year prison sentence:
TITLE 42 - THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
CHAPTER 7 - SOCIAL SECURITY
SUBCHAPTER II - FEDERAL OLD-AGE, SURVIVORS, AND DISABILITY INSURANCE BENEFITS
Sec. 408. Penalties
(a) In general
Whoever -...
(8) discloses, uses, or compels the disclosure of the social security number of any person in
violation of the laws of the United States; shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction thereof
shall be fined under title 18 or imprisoned for not more than five years, or both.
26 U.S.C. 6724(a) says:
No penalty shall be imposed under this part with respect to any failure if it is shown that such
failure is due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect.
A private employer who is acting as a voluntary agent of the

government by forcing you to fill out and submit tax withholding
forms also comes under the provisions of the above law
24JUN2014
71
Compelled Use of Social Security Numbers

on Government Forms (cont)
If your employer asks you to complete a W-4, then you:

Arent required to provide an SSN on it
Shouldnt use this form. The correct form is the modified form W-8BEN using the
instructions below:
About IRS Form W-8BEN, Form #04.202
NEVER, EVER use a form W-4. It is the wrong form for withholding if you are a
national and/or a nonresident alien who does not consent to work for the federal
government as one of its instrumentalities
If a bank asks you for a Social Security Number to open an account,

you can tell them that you dont have one and give them the
amended W-8BEN form above
IRS Publication 1586 addresses how Public (not PRIVATE, but

PUBLIC) Employers should deal with persons who do not have an
SSN. See:
IRS Publication 1586
http://famguardian.org/TaxFreedom/Forms/IRS/IRSPub1586.pdf

SATISFYING
CRITERIA IN

24JUN2014
73
Avoid Surrendering Sovereign Immunity

Do NOT sign any application for government benefits such as
SSA Form SS-5
Do NOT provide any personal information to any government
agency unless compelled to do so
Use pseudonyms when you fill out government forms. See:
Notice of Pseudonym Use and Unreliable Tax Records, Form #04.206
Quit all government benefit programs you participate in. See:

Do not obtain or use a state-issued drivers license.
It causes you to have a domicile within the Corporate state/federal zone

It forces you to use SSNs
24JUN2014
74
Avoid Surrendering Sovereign Immunity

Instead of state issued drivers licenses
Start your own sovereignty group and change your domicile to that group.
See:
Sovereignty Federation Government: Articles of Confederation, Form #13.002
Issue your own license

Use the same procedures as the state does. Most state vehicle codes
recognize foreign licenses, as long as you use the same guidelines,
booklets, and driving tests as they do. Use theirs and have a friend in
your sovereignty group document the test on an affidavit that gets
notarized
A private license is a foreign license within the meaning of state
vehicle codes. Foreign licenses may be used indefinitely in most
jurisdictions because they cant compel you to choose a domicile in their
jurisdiction and being a resident is a prerequisite to being issued a
license.
For further details, see:
Defending Your Right To Travel, Form #06.010

75
Signing government forms

When you sign government forms, write under your
signature:
All rights reserved, UCC 1-308 and its predecessor, UCC 1-207
This will prevent any surrender of rights in the process of

providing information.
You may also want to copyright or license the information
provided on the application you provide in order to prevent
the government from using it for any commercial or tax
purpose. For an example of how to do this, see:

Using Your Citizenship Evidence Against the IRS
An EXCELLENT form you can use in many situations which clearly identifies
your citizenship, domicile, and tax status is found on our website:
We highly encourage the frequent use of the above form in all your financial
and government interactions to prevent false presumptions about your status
that will endanger your sovereignty
You should provide a copy of your evidence of citizenship to any government

official who argues with you about your citizenship status
When you present your evidence, send it with an affidavit under penalty of
perjury. The only way an IRS agent can trump the value of such evidence is
with an affidavit himself for facts about which he has a personal knowledge,
which no IRS agent has
The Declaratory Judgments Act, 28 U.S.C. 2201(a) PROHIBITS federal courts

from assuming any status other than what you declare yourself under penalty
of perjury in the context of federal taxes. YOU ARE THE SOVEREIGN!
If the official continues to argue about respecting your rights as a national,

then sue for damages
24JUN2014
79
Conclusions
The government doesnt want you to be able to prove that
you are not a statutory U.S. citizen under 8 U.S.C. 1401
because then they lose their jurisdiction to tax you under
Subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code
They have made it very hard to get proof that you are not a
statutory U.S. citizen by:
Confusing the terms relating to citizenship so you will have a hard time
asking for or explaining exactly what you need
Refusing to comply with the requirements of 8 U.S.C. 1452 by refusing to
give you a Certificate of non-citizen National status
Forcing you to go into court and ask for a declaratory judgment without a
jury trial
You should make a concerted effort to develop certified

evidence that you are not an 8 U.S.C. 1401 statutory U.S.
citizen that is admissible in court
The easiest and best way to get proof of your citizenship is to
request a passport and then FOIA for a certified copy of the
approved application showing you are a national
