And if you apply for a passport, be sure to check US citizen and DO NOT take advantage of the fact that you can attach a notarized, sworn statement stating that you do not have federal citizenship from the United States and that your domicile is in one of the states of the Union.
Statements like this poison the evidence if the other side were to try to use a passport application in a tax prosecution.
Denying citizenship, denying ZIP code, or denying DC residence do not win cases, return money, or gain points. They do get people in trouble because they are generally not the nexus. Money transfers can constitute income wherever in the world you live and whatever citizenship or nationality you have; read the IRC for details. However, as implied above, if you've received a W-2 that's a credible allegation that you've been paid income and that allegation is not rebutted by referring to ZIP codes or other ineffective demurrals.
You're on the right track, but unless you read and understand the IRC you won't see where the nexus is found. You can start by finding the (three) boxes on the W-2 that allege income and investigating why there are three of them instead of just one.
Yep... it's a "whole thing" and not a life I want to live anymore just to "be right" or principled. It's a hard existence when you either Never was part of "the system" or rescinded everything.
Correct.
Just keep checkin that box that acknowledges you are a "US Citizen" to confirm you really reside in DC...complete with "ZIP code"...
…. Well now I want to know what a ZIP Code actually is.
Maybe Uncle Remus can help...

You know what legislation it was passed in?
Lots of details on how the numbers break down, not so many on where it came from, legally.
Just a quick search: https://satcomm911.com/PDFS/Mailing%20To%20States.pdf
Use discernment...I didn't read thru more than the 1st page and a quick scroll...
Maybe this Yandex Query will help... Uh huh huh, he said Query...

Just spit it out, rather than playing guessing games.
I know right?
