THERE IS NO RULE CONTAINED IN THESE SECTIONS WHICH MAKES THE DOMESTICALLY EARNED INCOME OF CITIZENS AND OR RESIDENTS OF THE SEVERAL STATES A TAXABLE SOURCE. TAXPAYERS VS NON-TAXPAYERS - WHICH ARE YOU? ECONOMY- PLUMBING AND Heating V. U,S.-, (1972) 470F.2D 585, AT PAGE 589 "THE REVENUE LAWS ARE A CODE OR SYSTEM IN THE REGULATION OF TAX ASSESSMENT AND COLLECTION. THEY RELATE TO TAXPAYERS, AND NOT TO NON-TAXPAYERS. THE LATTER ARE WITHOUT THEIR SCOPE. NO PROCEDURE IS PRESCRIBED FOR NON-TAXPAYERS, AND NO ATTEMPT IS MADE TO ANNUL ANY OF THEIR RIGHTS AND REMEDIES IN DUE COURSE OF LAW. WITH THEM CONGRESS DOES NOT ASSUME TO DEAL, AND THEY ARE NEITHER THE SUBJECT OF NOR THE OBJECT OF THE REVENUE LAWS." (EMPHASIS ADDED) JUST WHO ARE THE "NON TAXPAYERS" REFERRED TO IN THE ABOVE COURT CASE CITATION? THOSE WHOM THE "CONGRESS DOES NOT ASSUME TO DEAL" AND WHO "ARE NEITHER THE SUBJECT OF NOR THE OBJECT OF THE REVENUE LAWS"? SINCE CRF 1.861-8 AND SUBSEQUENT SECTIONS MAKE IT: CRYSTAL CLEAR THAT A CITIZEN AND OR RESIDENT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE TAX ON DOMESTICALLY EARNED INCOME, THE "NON TAXPAYERS" REFERRED TO ABOVE MUST BE THOSE WHO ARE NOT REQUIRED TO PAY THE TAX, AND THEREFORE CHOSE NOT TO VOLUNTEER! ONE LAST WORD. IF YOU ARE CONTACTED, IN PERSON., BY THE IRS, PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY. REMEMBER, YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO SPEAK WITH THEM. IF THEY WISH TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU THEY MAY DO SO IN, WRITING AT ANY TIME. IT IS BEST THAT YOU HAVE A RECORD OF WHAT IS SAID. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANY OF THIS MATERIAL, PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL. RAY NEWSLETTER THE 1999 1040 INSTRUCTION BOOKLET 26 CFR 1.1441-5 CLAIMING TO BE A PERSON NOT SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING 26 CFR 3402 (P) -1 (B) (2) VOLUNTARY WITHHOLDING AGREEMENTS 26 USC 7701(A)(16) "WITHHOLDING AGENT" CFR 1.861-8 ET SEQ. ARE THE REGULATIONS USED TO DETERMINE TAXABLE INCOME FROM SOURCES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES. THE LIST OF TAXABLE SOURCES CONTAINED IN 1.861- 8(F)(1) DOES NOT INCLUDE DOMESTICALLY EARNED INCOME BY A CITIZEN OR RESIDENT OF THE U.S., NOR IS THERE ANY OTHER LIST OF SOURCES OF INCOME CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS. 1999 1040 IINSTRUCTION BOOKLET DEFINES "INCOME" IN THE 1999 1040 INSTRUCTIONS BOOKLET ON PAGE 19 UNDER THE HEADING "INCOME" YOU WILL FIND THE SUBHEADING "FOREIGN -SOURCE INCOME", THEN "COMMUNITY PROPERTY STATES", AND FINALLY "ROUNDING OFF TO WHOLE DOLLARS". THE HEADING AFTER THAT IS "LINE 7 WAGES, SALARIES, TIPS, ETC. 11 WHICH ARE "ITEMS" OF INCOME, NOT SOURCES (SEE 26 CFR 1.861-8 WHICH CONTAINS THE SAME LIST OF "ITEMS" OF INCOME THAT IS CONTAINED IN IRC SEC. 61 (A) ) . NO WHERE UNDER THE HEADING OF "INCOME" IS THERE REFERENCE TO THE DOMESTICALLY EARNED INCOME OF A CITIZEN OR RESIDENT OF THE U.S. 26 CFR 1.1441-5 CLAIMING TO BE A PERSON NOT SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING IN VIEW OF 1. 861-8 ET SEQ., WE WOULD EXPECT TO FIND REGULATIONS IN THE CFR WHICH WOULD ALLOW AN EXEMPTION OR EXCLUSION FROM MANDATORY WITHHOLDING. AFTER ALL, WHY WOULD THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY EXPECT EMPLOYERS TO WITHHOLD TAXES FROM THOSE WHO WOULD NOT BE LIABLE FOR THEM? JUST WHAT DOES THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY DIRECT THOSE OF US WHO HAVE NOT DERIVED OUR INCOME FROM A TAXABLE SOURCE TO DO? 26 CFR 1.1441-5 CLAIMING TO BE A PERSON NOT SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING (A) INDIVIDUALS. FOR PURPOSES OF CHAPTER 3 OF THE CODE AN INDIVIDUALL’S WRITTEN STATEMENT - AT HE OR SHE IS A CITIZEN, OF THE UNITED STATES MAY BE RELIED UPON BY THE PAYER OF THE INCOME AS PROOF THAT SUCH INDIVIDUAL IS A CITIZEN OR RESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

THE ORIGINAL STATEMENT SHALL BE RETAINED BY THE WITHHOLDING AGENT. THE ONLY QUALIFICATION FOR "CLAIMING TO BE A PERSON NOT SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING" IS BEING "A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES". YOU MUST THEN SUPPLY YOUR EMPLOYER WITH A WRITTEN STATEMENT, IN DUPLICATE, TO THAT EFFECT. THE MOST INTERESTING PART OF ALL THIS IS THAT IF DOMESTICALLY EARNED INCOME BY A CITIZEN OR RESIDENT WERE A "TAXABLE SOURCE" THIS CFR SECTION WOULD NEVER HAVE-EXISTED. 26 CFR 3402(P)-L VOLUNTARY WITHHOLDING AGREEMENTS 26 CFR SECTION 3402 (P) -1 IS IN SUBTITLE C - EMPLOYMENT TAXES, AND IS ENTITLED "VOLUNTARY WITHHOLDING AGREEMENTS.
