Most people unknowingly enter into a binding tax relationship with the federal government by signing IRS forms like the W-4 or W-9, which classify them as U.S. persons and subject their labor to federal income tax withholding. These forms authorize the IRS and employers or payers to withhold income and issue tax documents like the W-2 or 1099. In contrast, the W-8BEN is used to lawfully declare foreign status, exempting the individual from withholding and shifting the legal classification of their income. However, using the W-8BEN requires proper status correction, operation through a foreign trust or entity, and working under private contracts rather than statutory employment. Without this lawful foundation, misuse of the W-8BEN may be considered fraudulent by the IRS. Understanding which form you use — and why — can dramatically affect your tax obligations and legal standing.

A paper appearance is a lawful response to a court proceeding made in writing—such as an affidavit or declaration—instead of appearing in person. This administrative process allows you to challenge jurisdiction, demand proof of claim, and preserve your rights without granting consent. It is especially effective when no injured party or verified complaint exists.
In the American republic, no man or woman can be lawfully punished for a victimless crime where no injury, harm, or contract exists.

In U.S. law, the term “person” doesn’t simply mean a living individual. According to 26 U.S.C. § 7701(a)(1), “person” includes a trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation. This statutory definition reveals that many legal obligations—especially tax, regulatory, and commercial—are applied not to people, but to legal fictions. Understanding this distinction is key to asserting your true legal and constitutional standing.
When a court acts without jurisdiction, its orders carry no legal force.

Know your rights, understand void orders, and stand on the law, not presumption.
In Kevin Walker Estate et al v. Jay Promisco et al, Judge Jesus G. Bernal issued a secretive in-chambers dismissal while concealing three verified and notarized filings from the official record. The Plaintiffs had submitted sworn affidavits invoking constitutional, commercial, and trust law jurisdiction.

An unrebutted affidavit and notice of dishonor now stand on the record, confirming default. This case raises serious constitutional and legal concerns regarding judicial integrity and abuse of office.
