Subject: IRS Abuses Regarding Rights of Information and Actions
This covers the following sections of Title 26 Internal Revenue Laws, hereafter referred to as such, or as the
IRC:
Item: Section: Title: Page:

2 6011 General requirement of return, statement, or list 2
3 6012 General requirement of return, statement, or list 8

11 7608 Authority of internal revenue enforcement officers 15
-- 6343 Authority to release levy and return property 16
-- 7214 Offenses by officers and employees of the United States 16
In regards to all following the provisions of Title 5--Government Organization and Employees, Part I--The
Agencies Generally, Chapter 5--Administrative Procedure, Subchapter II--Administrative Procedure apply as
recognized in 26 CFR § 601.702 Publication and public inspection.
1. Title 26 (IRC) Section 6001: Notice or regulations requiring records, statements, and special returns.
The IRS uses the statement "Our legal right to ask for information is Internal Revenue Code sections
6001. 6011 and 6012(b) and their regulations. They say that you must file a return or statement with us
for any tax you are liable for. Your response is mandatory under these sections. Code section 6109
requires that you provide your social security number or individual taxpayer identification number on what
you file."
[6109 brings up yet another matter. 6109 and its regulations require taxpayers to obtain taxpayer numbers for
income tax purposes, and employers and individual employees to obtain numbers for employment tax
purposes. Thus, having been directed to 6109, we learn that the W-4 Privacy Act Statement, which Act
requires Agencies to state why they are asking for the information, is really telling us that Social Security
Numbers and Employer ID numbers are for employment taxes, and taxpayer numbers for income
taxes, which are entirely different things, and are used for entirely different purposes by entirely different
classes of "taxpayers". Taxpayer numbers are for withholding agents and nonresident aliens, and
employment numbers are for government employees and their benefit programs.]
Emphasis is placed on the words "and their regulations" as it indicates that the IRS is well aware that
enforcement of the code sections is by the regulations that are implemented for them and entered in the
Federal Register. It is only those regulations so entered and having final rule (regulation) status that have
legal effect.
6001 makes the statement "Every person liable for any tax imposed by this title, or for the collection
thereof, shall keep such records, render such statements, make such returns, and comply with such rules
and regulations as the Secretary may from time to time prescribe" without identifying the taxes addressed
by this section. Since enforcement of a section is dependent upon regulations it is the regulations for this
section that identify the taxes concerned. Pertinent facts in regards to these parts/sections in Title 26 CFR
are shown in the following recap. Since 26 CFR Parts 55 (Excise tax on real estate investment trusts and
regulated investment companies) and 156 (Excise tax on greenmail) do not apply to most they are
omitted from listing:
CFR Part/Sec Facts
1.6001-1 Applies to Subtitle A source document giving regulatory (rule) authority of law:

1.6001-2 Refers to returns required to be made by every individual, estate, or trust which is
liable for one or more qualified State individual income taxes (T.D. 6516, 25 FR
13032, Dec. 20, 1960, T.D. 7577, 43 FR 59357, Dec. 20, 1978)
31.6001-1 General – no authorizing regulations. Refers to Sec’s. 31.6001-2 to 31.6001-5,
inclusive, for additional records required with respect to the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act, the Railroad Retirement Tax Act, the Federal Unemployment
Tax act, and the collection of income tax at source on wages.
31.6001-2 Refers to every employer liable for tax under the Federal Insurance Contributions
Act (T.D. 6516, 25 FR 13032, Dec. 20, 1960, T.D. 7001, 34 FR 1003, Jan. 23,
1969)
31.6001-3 General – no authorizing regulations. Refers to every employer liable for tax
under the Railroad Retirement Tax Act
31.6001-4 Refers to Every employer liable for tax under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act
(T.D. 6516, 25 FR 13032, Dec. 20, 1960, T.D. 6658, 28 FR 6642, June 27, 1963)
31.6001-5 Refers to every employer required under section 3402 to deduct and withhold
income tax upon the wages of employees shall keep records of all remuneration
paid to (including tips reported by) such employees (T.D. 6516, 25 FR 13032,
Dec. 20, 1960, T.D. 6606, 27 FR 8516, Aug. 25, 1962)
31.6001-6 General – no authorizing regulations.
In regards to the above regulations from 26 CFR Part 1 Income Tax it is noted that 26 CFR 601.101(a)
states that "The Internal Revenue Service is the agency by which these functions are performed. Within
an internal revenue district, the internal revenue laws are administered by a district director of internal
revenue. The Director, Foreign Operations District, administers the internal revenue laws applicable
to taxpayers residing or doing business abroad, foreign taxpayers deriving income from sources
within the United States, and taxpayers who are required to withhold tax on certain payments to
nonresident aliens and foreign corporations, provided the books and records of those taxpayers
are located outside the United States."
Notice that these regulations therefore apply only to the internal revenue laws applicable to taxpayers
residing or doing business abroad, foreign taxpayers deriving income from sources within the United
States, and taxpayers who are required to withhold tax on certain payments to nonresident aliens and
foreign corporations. Further referral could be made to 26 section 1461 and sections 1441 through 1443.
Those indicated in 26 Part 31 (Employment taxes and collection of income tax at source) apply to the
titles and subject matter as shown above. Since these requirements are applicable to "employers", they
again do not apply to an individual who is not an "employer" within the meaning of the term as defined.
Further, regulations for 26 USC section 6001 also exist in 27 CFR Parts 19, 53, 194, 250, and 296. These
sections relate to Distilled spirits plants, Manufacturers excise taxes--firearms and ammunition, Liquor
dealers, Liquors and articles from Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, and Miscellaneous regulations
relating to tobacco products and cigarette papers and tube respectively. These 27 CFR regulations are
only applicable to alcohol, tobacco, and firearm related activities.
2. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6011. General requirement of return, statement, or list
This section pertains to the requirement to furnish a return. In 6011(a) the very first sentence reads,
"When required by regulations prescribed by the Secretary any person made liable for any tax imposed
by this title, or with respect to the collection thereof, shall make a return or statement according to the
forms and regulations prescribed by the Secretary." Since it states, "required by regulations" it is again
evidence of the fact that the IRS is aware that enforcement relies on regulations. These regulations
for IRC section 6011 are as follows. Since 26 CFR Parts 40 (Excise tax procedural regulations), 55 (Excise
tax on real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies) and 156 (Excise tax on
greenmail) do not apply to most they are not listed.

From the above it is shown that the requirements are those of an "employer" by fact of the forms
prescribed. In this regard a look at the Form 941 needs to be done, it has an OMB Number of 1545-0029
and is governed by the regulations shown below::
Regulation: Title/Contents:
31.3102-3 Collection of, and liability for, employee tax on tips.
31.3121(b)(19)-1 Services of certain nonresident aliens.
31.3121(r)-1 Election of coverage by religious orders.
31.3121(s)-1 Concurrent employment by related corporations with common paymaster.
31.3306(c)(18)-1 Services of certain nonresident aliens.
31.3401(a)(6)-1 Remuneration for services of nonresident alien individuals.
31.3401(a)(7)-1 Remuneration paid before January 1, 1967, for services formed by
nonresident alien individuals who are residents of a contiguous country and
who enter and leave the United States at frequent intervals.
31.3401(a)(8)(A)-1 Remuneration for services performed outside the United States by citizens
of the United States.
31.3401(a)(8)(C)-1
Remuneration for services performed in Puerto Rico by citizen of the United States.
31.3401(a)-1 Wages.
31.3402(h)(1)-1 Withholding on basis of average wages.
31.3402(h)(3)-1 Withholding on basis of cumulative wages.
31.3404-1 Return and payment by governmental employer.
31.3504-1 Acts to be performed by agents.
31.6001-6 Notice by district director requiring returns, statements, or the keeping of
records.
31.6011(a)-1 Returns under Federal Insurance Contributions Act.
31.6011(b)-2 Employees' account numbers.
31.6053-1 Report of tips by employee to employer.
31.6065(a)-1 Verification of returns or other documents.
31.6071(a)-1 Time for filing returns and other documents.
31.6091-1 Place for filing returns.
31.6205-1 Adjustments of underpayments.
31.6413(a)-1 Repayment by employer of tax erroneously collected from employee.
31.6413(a)-2 Adjustment of overpayments.
31.6413(c)-1 Repayment by payor of tax erroneously collected from payee.
31.6414-1 Credit or refund of income tax withheld from wages.
32.1 Social security taxes with respect to payments on account of sickness or
accident disability.
32.2 Railroad retirement taxes with respect to payments on account of sickness
or accident disability.
36.3121(1)(10)-1 Requirements in respect of liability under agreement.
36.3121(1)(10)-3 Returns.
301.6316-7 Payment of Federal Insurance Contributions Act taxes in foreign currency.
In the above, Part 36 is in regards to Contract coverage of employees of foreign subsidiaries. Remember
that 26 CFR Part 601.101(a) included the wording "internal revenue laws applicable to taxpayers residing
or doing business abroad, foreign taxpayers deriving income from sources within the United States, and
taxpayers who are required to withhold tax on certain payments to nonresident aliens and foreign
corporations, provided the books and records of those taxpayers are located outside the United States."
Therefore, from the list of regulations to be used in completing the form it is readily apparent that
31.3121(b)(19)-1, 31.3306(c)(18)-1, 31.3401(a)(6)-1, and 31.3401(a)(7)-1 are applicable to foreign
taxpayers deriving income from sources within the United States, and taxpayers who are required to
withhold tax on certain payments to nonresident aliens and foreign corporations.
By the same reasoning, 26 CFR Part 601.101(a) included the wording "internal revenue laws applicable to
taxpayers residing or doing business abroad". Therefore regulations 31.3401(a)(8)(A)-1 and
31.3401(a)(8)(C)-1 would be applicable. Since 31.3401(a)(8)(A)-1 relates only to services performed
outside the United States by citizens of the United States it is not applicable to those citizens residing in
the 50 State Republics and not doing business abroad.
The following statement appears in the instructions for completing the Form 941:
Line 2— Total wages and tips plus other compensation
Enter the total of all wages paid, tips reported, taxable
fringe benefits provided, and other compensation paid to
your employees, even if you do not have to withhold
income or social security and Medicare taxes on it.
Do not include supplemental unemployment
compensation benefits, even if you withheld income tax
on them. Do not include contributions to employee plans
that are excluded from the employee's wages (e.g.,
section 401(k) and 125 plans). [emphasis added]
The wording "even if you do not have to withhold income or social security and Medicare taxes on it"
indicates that not all pay is subject to withholding and social security/Medicare taxes are not necessarily
mandatory.
Since the above is in regards to the term "wages" a look at the appropriate regulations as listed is called
for. Since wages subject to withholding under chapters 21, 22, 23, and 24 of the IRC are included in the
regulations specified for these forms a closer look at the IRC sections and their regulations are in order.
For purposes of brevity, and because the RRTA withholding of chapter 22 is similar to that of FICA in
chapter 21 (only applies to a specific group) we can narrow what needs to be looked at to those
regarding FICA (chapter 21) and withholding at source on wages (chapter 24). Chapter 23 is in regards
to the Federal Unemployment Tax Act and regards employers only so will not be covered.
In regards to this, a look at IRC section 3121(a) which defines "wages" in regards to chapter 21 is in
order. In doing so it is evident that it contains many words which makes for "fuzzy interpretation. The
statement "(as determined under section 230 of the Social Security Act)" is of significance though. By
referring to the "References in Text" section of IRC section 3121 the following is stated:
REFERENCES IN TEXT
The Social Security Act, referred to in subsecs. (a)(1), (15), (b), (d)(4), (j)(2)(D), (4)(B), (l)(1), (4), (6),
(r)(3)(A), (u), (w)(1), and (x), is act Aug. 14, 1935, ch. 531, 49 Stat. 620, as amended. Title II of the Act
is classified generally to subchapter II (Sec. 401 et seq.) of chapter 7 of Title 42, The Public Health
and Welfare. Sections 201, 210, 215, 218, 223, 230, and 233 of the Act are classified to sections
401, 410, 415, 418, 423, 430, and 433, respectively, of Title 42. For complete classification of this Act
to the Code, see section 1305 of Title 42 and Tables.
We find that Title II of the act is classified generally to subchapter II (Sec. 401 et seq.) of chapter 7 of Title
42 and that certain sections of the Act are classified to the sections of Title 42, chapter 7 as shown in the
following:
Title II Act Sections Title 42 Sections
201 401
210 410
215 415
218 418
223 423
230 430
233 433
So as it was stated in IRC 3121 "as determined under section 230 of the Social Security Act" we need to
see what section 230 of the act as codified in Title 42 Section 430 states:
Sec. 430. Adjustment of contribution and benefit base
(c) Amount of base for period prior to initial cost-of-living benefit increase
For purposes of this section, and for purposes of determining wages and self-employment income under sections 409, 411, 413, and 415 of this title and sections 1402, 3121, 3122, 3125, 6413, and 6654 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, … ..
Section Referred to in Other Sections
This section is referred to in sections 403, 409, 411, 413, 415 of
this title; title 5 section 8334; title 26 sections 401, 936, 1402,
3121, 3231, 6413; title 29 section 1322.
In looking at it we note that it states "for purposes of determining wages and self-employment income under
sections 409, 411, 413, and 415 of this title and sections 1402, 3121, 3122, 3125, 6413, and 6654 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986".
Therefore to determine what constitutes "wages" we need to refer to sections 409, 411, 413, and 415 of
Title 42. It is Title 42, section 409 that defines "wages. In section 409(b), Regulations providing exclusions
from term the following is stated: "Nothing in the regulations prescribed for purposes of chapter 24 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (relating to income tax withholding) which provides an
exclusion from "wages'' as used in such chapter shall be construed to require a similar exclusion
from "wages'' in the regulations prescribed for purposes of this subchapter."
Notice where it states that if an exclusion exists for purposes of chapter 24 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 (relating to income tax withholding) will also apply to this subchapter (Subchapter II--Federal Old-
Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance). At this point, a look at the regulations for IRC section 3121 and
Title 42 section 409 and applicable Federal Register entries should be made.
Since 26 CFR Part 31 covers Employment taxes and collection of income tax at source it is found that
31.3121(a)-1 concerns the definition of "wages" and makes reference to section 230 of the Social
Security Act for determining maximum amounts of remuneration subject to withholding. An entry in the
Federal Register at T.D. 6516, 25 FR 13032, Dec. 20, 1960 lists the different sections/subsections of
3121 and states that all employment tax regulations pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 are
entered as republished for purposes of editorial changes and corrections of form, style, and internal
references.
Since section 230 of the Social Security Act is referenced and that is codified in Title 42 section 409 a
look at the regulations for that section is in order. The regulations are found at 20 CFR Part 404. By
referring to the Federal Register entry at 26 FR 7055, Aug. 5, 1961 (shown on page 17) in the third
column it is noticed that in 404.2(c)(8) it states "The terms defined in sections 209, 210, and 211 of the
act shall have the meanings therein assigned to them". Section 209 of the Act is codified at Title 42
Section 409, therefore if an exemption exists for chapter 24 it also applies to chapter 21 (and 22).
This means that a look at chapter 24 section 3401 Definitions is in order. In 3401(a) Wages, the following
is stated:
"For purposes of this chapter, the term "wages" means all remuneration (other than fees paid to a public
official) for services performed by an employee for his employer, including the cash value of all
remuneration (including benefits) paid in any medium other than cash; except that such term shall not
include remuneration paid— "
In 3401(a)(8)(A) it states "for services for an employer (other than the United States or any agency
thereof)— " and in subsection (i) states "performed by a citizen of the United States if, at the time of the
payment of such remuneration, it is reasonable to believe that such remuneration will be excluded from
gross income under section 911.
The first thing noticed in this subsection is that the term "employee" was not used, it states "a citizen of
the United States. A look at IRC section 911 reveals that it in regards to an exclusion of a specific amount
of remuneration for U.S. citizens or residents thereof living abroad. Since a U.S. Citizen living within the 50
State Republics does not fall within the meaning of IRC section 911 they are exempt with no
remuneration while working in the private sector considered "wages" within the meaning of the term
defined. This is born out by Federal Register entry for 26 CFR section 31.3401(a)-1 at T.D. 6654, 28 FR
5251, May 28, 1963 shown on page 18 where it states for section 31.3401(a)-1:
(a) In general. (1) The term "wages'' means all remuneration for
services performed by an employee for his employer unless specifically
excepted under section 3401(a) or excepted under section 3402(e).
This has been shown to exist at IRC section 3401(a)(8)(A)(i).
The IRC sections and regulations are therefore in agreement with still standing decisions of the supreme
Court of the United States. In regards to the FICA and RRTA withholdings the following ruling applies:
"The catalogue of means and actions which might be imposed upon an employer in any business, tending to the
satisfaction and comfort of his employees, seems endless. Provision for free medical assistance, nursing,
clothing, food, housing, and education of children, and a hundred other matters might with equal propriety be
proposed as tending to relieve the employee of mental strain and worry. Can it fairly be said that the power of
Congress to regulate interstate commerce extends to the prescription of any or all of these things? It is not
apparent that they are really and essentially related solely to the social welfare of the worker, and therefore
remote from any regulation of commerce as such ? We think the answer is plain. These matters obviously lie
outside the orbit of congressional power". - Railroad Retirement Board v. Alton Railroad Co, 295 U.S. 330, 55
S. Ct. 758 (1935), [emphasis added]
It is now apparent that private sector employers are erroneously reporting remuneration as "wages" that
are not such within the meaning defined. Whether so done based on ignorance, faulted tax counsel, or by
direction and pressure it makes no difference, a violation of Constitutional Rights has occurred.
Another factor to look at is that the Forms prescribed pertain to reporting for "employees". This term is not
all encompassing and is limited to those stated as such in IRC section 3401(c) by using the definition of
"includes" and "including" given in IRC section 7701(c) per 26 CFR 301.7701-16 with Federal Register
authority at T.D. 7977, 49 FR 36836, Sept. 20, 1984.
Since the terms "wages" and "employee" are inter-dependent another look at the definition of "wages"
will add merit to what has been stated. Section 3401(c) defines an employee as : "For purposes of this
chapter, the term ''employee'' includes an officer, employee, or elected official of the United States, a
State
, or any political subdivision thereof, or the District of Columbia, or any agency or instrumentality ofany one or more of the foregoing. The term ''employee'' also includes an officer of a corporation."
Therefore, by applying the definition of "includes and including" in IRC section 7701(c) an employee is as
stated in IRC section 3401(c).
The regulations for enforcement are found in Sec. 31.3401(c)-1 Employee. In subsection 31.3401(c)-1(c)
an exclusion is made for those in an independent trade, business, or profession who offer their
services to the public sector: "Generally, physicians, lawyers, dentists, veterinarians, contractors,
subcontractors, public stenographers, auctioneers, and others who follow an independent trade, business, or
profession, in which they offer their services to the public, are not employees."
Additionally, 31.3401(c)-1(a) limits the application to certain classes of government employees: "The term
employee includes every individual performing services if the relationship between him and the person
for whom he performs such services is the legal relationship of employer and employee. The term
includes officers and employees, whether elected or appointed, of the United States, a State,
Territory, Puerto Rico, or any political subdivision thereof, or the District of Columbia, or any
agency or instrumentality of any one or more of the foregoing."
Notice the usage of the term "includes" and the words "elected" and "appointed". This limits the
designation as "employee" to only those that are elected to office, or appointed to a key position. It does
not include the clerks, janitors, or others plying a common trade and employed by the government. If you
are government employed and wish to determine if you are considered an "employee" refer to 5 U.S.C.
section 2105 Employee.
That the terms "individual" and "employee" are not always synonymous is shown in the regulations at 26
CFR Sec. 31.3401(a)-2 Exclusions from wages (Federal Register entries at T.D. 6516, 25 FR 13032,
Dec. 20, 1960, as amended by T.D. 6654, 28 FR 5251, May 28, 1963; T.D. 7096, 36 FR 5216, Mar. 18,
1971):
(a) In general. (1) The term "wages'' does not include any
remuneration for services performed by an employee for his employer
which is specifically excepted from wages under section 3401(a).
(2) The exception attaches to the remuneration for services
performed by an employee and not to the employee as an individual; that is,
the exception applies only to the remuneration in an excepted category.
Which states that an "employee" gets the exemptions only while in an excepted category of individuals.
One may be an "employee" and an "individual", but not all "individuals" are "employees".
Therefore the remuneration of those in government who are elected or appointed is what constitutes
"wages" for the purpose of Chapter 24 of the IRC (also Chapters 21 and 22 as previously shown). This is
in keeping with another court decision:
"An income tax is neither a property tax nor a tax on occupations of common right, but is an EXCISE tax ... The
legislature may declare as 'privileged' and tax as such for state revenue, those pursuits not matters of common
right, but it has no power to declare as a 'privilege' and tax for revenue purposes, occupations that are of
common right." - Simms v. Ahrens, 271 SW 720. [emphasis added]
This congress did, through implementation of the Buck Act (4 U.S.C. Sections 105-113). In Section
110(e), this Act authorized any department of the federal government to create a "Federal area" for
imposition of the "Public Salary Tax Act of 1939". This tax is imposed at 4 U.S.C.S. Sec. 111. The rest of
the taxing law is found in the Internal Revenue Code. The Social Security Board had already created a
"Federal area" overlay.
Again it is apparent that private sector employers are submitting erroneous forms in regards to taxation.
Not only are they reporting remuneration that does not constitute wages as such, they are also counting
employees who are not such by definitions in the IRC, their regulations, or in the Federal Register.
3. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6012. General requirement of return, statement, or list
IRC section 6012(a) pertains to Returns with respect to income taxes under subtitle A and 6012(b)
pertains to Returns made by fiduciaries and receivers. For this reason section, 6012 does not apply and
there are no entries in the Federal Register giving it effect of law. They are not required as it has
previously been shown that Subtitle A does not apply to U.S. Citizens and Nationals living and working
within the 50 State Republics.
4. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6020. Returns prepared for or executed by Secretary
IRC section 6020(b)(1) states "If any person fails to make any return required by any internal revenue law
or regulation made thereunder at the time prescribed therefore, or makes, willfully or otherwise, a false or
fraudulent return, the Secretary shall make such return from his own knowledge and from such
information as he can obtain through testimony or otherwise." Again, as was the case with IRC sections
6001 and 6011 this statement is vague in that it does not identify the taxes. However, through the
regulations for IRC sections 6001 and 6011 it has been determined just what information the IRS has a
right to ask for and the forms to be used. This can be verified by the wording in IRC section 6020 "any
return required by any internal revenue law or regulation made thereunder" as compared with that found
in IRC section 6011 "When required by regulations prescribed by the Secretary any person made liable
for any tax imposed by this title, or with respect to the collection thereof, shall make a return or statement
according to the forms and regulations prescribed by the Secretary". Therefore, the returns, as made by
the secretary are limited to those previously identified by the regulations for IRC sections 6001 and 6011.
This bears out that these sections (6001, 6011, and 6020) are in harmony and agreement.
In looking at the regulations for IRC section 6020 only one was noted, 301.6020-1 and it was noticed that
it has no entry into the Federal Register. However, it was located as called out in 27 CFR Parts 53 and
70. These parts are Manufacturers excise taxes -- firearms and ammunition and Procedure and
administration respectively. 27 CFR Part 53 is entered in the Federal Register with final rule status by T.D.
ATF-308, 56 FR 303, Jan. 3, 1991. For Part 70, it was originally located in Part 70.61 by T.D. ATF-251,
52 FR 19314, May 22, 1987 but relocated to Part 70.42 by T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47604, Nov. 14, 1990.
The Treasury Decision (T.D.) Federal Register entry at 55 FR 47604 is shown on page 19 of this file.
The page at T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47604, Nov. 14, 1990, as shown on page 19 has several important
facts indicated on it. The Summary and Background text gives in a very understandable form, the facts
concerning the take-over of tax functions by the BATF in regards to ATF taxable activities. In two places,
Administrative Procedure Act and Paperwork Reduction Act, it states the "final rule" status of T.D. ATF-
301. Since it is the Procedures and Administration part we are interested in, a look at the page at T.D.
ATF-301, 55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 that we must look at. This page is shown on at the bottom of this file.
Located at the bottom of the third column as par. 12 the revised authority citation for Part 70 is given. It
should be noted that 26 U.S.C. section 6020 is listed. This is the only Federal Register entry for this
section that has final rule status giving it legal effect. Therefore, enforcement is by ATF regulated activity.
It is in regards to this section that the IRS establishes the base for accomplishing unlawful liens
and levies. Through their internal procedures they generate a "dummy substitute for return" against the Form
1040A (note that this form is not one authorized via IRC sections 6001 and 6011 and their regulations)
and enter it in the Individual Master File (IMF) of the individual(s) concerned.
The Internal Revenue Manual, though no law shows the IRS is aware that it is a "dummy SFR" in [104.3]
9.6 Substitutes for Return where it gives specific instructions for generating a SFR and in 1.1 states
"When preparing SFRs, the procedures listed below must be followed: Prepare a "dummy/SFR" for each
tax period." It then gives exact steps to be followed.
From the above it is plain to see that IRC section 6020 and its regulation apply only to ATF taxable
activities.
Further; according to the Internal Revenue Manual concerning what authority exists for implementing 6020(b) authority it states:
Internal Revenue Manual
Part 5
Collecting Process
Chapter 1
General
Section 11

The following are authorized to execute returns under IRC
6020(b):
A. Revenue officers.
B. Automated Collection System (ACS) and
Collection Support function (CSf) managers GS-9 and above.
5. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6201. Assessment authority
Section 6201 of the IRC sets forth the assessment authorities. As was the case with IRC section 6020 a
single regulation exists, located at 301.6201-1. This regulation, like 301.6020-1 has no entry into the
Federal Register. However, it was located as called out in 27 CFR Part 70 Procedure and administration
(Part 70.42 with Federal Register entry at T.D. ATF-251, 52 FR 19314, May 22, 1987. Redesignated and
amended by T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47606 and 47610, Nov. 14, 1990). By referring to T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR
47605, Nov. 14, 1990 as shown on below it will be noted in the listing for Part 70.These are final rule
entries. Therefore, enforcement is by ATF regulated activity.
6. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6203. Method of assessment
IRC section 6203 states "The assessment shall be made by recording the liability of the taxpayer in the
office of the Secretary in accordance with rules or regulations prescribed by the Secretary. Upon request
of the taxpayer, the Secretary shall furnish the taxpayer a copy of the record of the assessment.
26 CFR Sec. 301.6203-1 Method of assessment, details the stringent requirements in regards to an
assessment in that the assessment shall be made by an assessment officer signing the summary record
of assessment. The summary record, through supporting records, shall provide:
a) Identification of the taxpayer,
b) the character of the liability assessed,
c) the taxable period, if applicable, and
d) the amount of the assessment.
It further states that the date of the assessment is the date the summary record is signed by an
assessment officer.
It also explicitly states "If the taxpayer requests a copy of the record of assessment, he shall be furnished
a copy of the pertinent parts of the assessment which set forth the name of the taxpayer, the date of
assessment, the character of the liability assessed, the taxable period, if applicable, and the amounts
assessed.
However, the IRS uses the "dummy SFR" generated in IRC section 6020 to generate false assessments
against the "dummy SFRs" and input them into the Automated Information Management System (AIMS).
These assessments do not meet the requirements of IRC section 6203 or regulation at 301.6203-1 in that
they do not exist as required by regulation.
In this regard, numerous attempts at obtaining copies of the 1040A "dummy return assessments as
entered in Individual Master Files have been ignored, delayed under faulted excuses, or attempted to be
satisfied by a RACS Report 006 that fails to meet the requirements of 26 CFR section 301.6203-1, or of
27 CFR Part 70.71 where authority has been placed by Federal Register entry at T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR
47611, Nov. 14, 1990. Again, by referring to T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 as shown on
page 20 of this transmittal you will see 26 USC section 6203 listed under the authority citation for Part 70.
In regards to the failure of the IRS to provide copies of the assessments, I offer the following court
findings:
Upon request, FOIA mandates disclosure of records held by a federal agency, see 5 U.S.C. § 552
unless the documents fall within enumerated exemptions, see §552(b). "[T]hese limited exemptions do
not obscure the basic policy that disclosure, not secrecy, is the dominant objective of the Act,"
Department of Air Force v. Rose, 425 U.S. 352, 361 (1976); "[c]onsistent with the Act’s goal of broad
disclosure, these exemptions have been consistently given a narrow compass," Department of Justice
v. Tax Analysts, 492 U.S. 136, 151 (1989); see also FBI v. Abramson, 456 U.S. 615, 630 (1982) ("FOIA
exemptions are to be narrowly construed").
The point is not to protect Government secrecy pure and simple, however, and the first condition of
Exemption 5 is no less important than the second; the communication must be "inter-agency or intraagency."
5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(5). Statutory definitions underscore the apparent plainness of this text. With
exceptions not relevant here, "agency" means "each authority of the Government of the United States,"
§551(1), and "includes any executive department, military department, Government corporation,
Government controlled corporation, or other establishment in the executive branch of the Government .
. ., or any independent regulatory agency," §552(f). - Department of the Interior and Bureau of Indian
Affairs, Petitioners v. Klamath Water Users Protective Association on Writ of Certiorari to the United
States Court Of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit [March 5, 2001]
That the IRS is well aware that a lawfully completed Summary of Assessment must exist is shown within
their Internal Revenue Manual:

Note Item 2 in all the above IRM sections: "
All principal (or penalty/interest) assessments must be recorded on Summary Record of Assessments (Assessment Certificate). The Assessment Certificate is the legal document that permits collection activity."7. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6301. Collection authority
As before, this section has but one regulatory entry (301.6301-1) having no shown Federal Register entry. As
stated previously the final rule regulatory authority is found in 27 CFR Part 70 Procedure and administration
Parts 70.11 Meaning of terms, 70.51 Collection authority, and 70.65 Use of commercial banks. The entry at
Part 70.51 is found in the Federal Register in final rule status at T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47611, Nov. 14, 1990.
By referring to T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 as shown on page 20 it will be noted in the listing
for Part 70. Again, this activity does not apply to those not engaged in ATF taxable activities.
8. Title 26 (IRC) Section 6321 Lien for tax Section 6321 reads "If any person liable to pay any tax neglects or
refuses to pay the same after demand, the amount (including any interest, additional amount, addition to tax,
or assessable penalty, together with any costs that may accrue in addition thereto) shall be a lien in favor of
the United States upon all property and rights to property, whether real or personal, belonging to such
person."
Under Short Title it states: "Pub. L. 89-719, Sec. 1(a), Nov. 2, 1966, 80 Stat. 1125, provided that: ``This Act
[enacting sections 3505, 7425, 7426, and 7810 of this title, amending sections 545, 6322 to 6325, 6331,
6332, 6334, 6335, 6337 to 6339, 6342, 6343, 6502, 6503, 6532, 7402, 7403, 7421, 7424, 7505, 7506, and
7809 of this title, sections 1346, 1402, and 2410 of Title 28, Judiciary and Judicial Procedure, and section
270a of Title 40, Public Buildings, Property, and Works, redesignating section 7425 as 7427 of this title, and
enacting provisions set out as notes under sections 6323 and 7424 of this title, and under section 1346 of
Title 28] may be cited as the `Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966'.''
Of the sections in the IRC listed, the following have governing authority in 27CFR Part 70: 6323, 6325,
6331, 6332, 6334, 6335, 6337 to 6339, 6342, 6343, 6502, 6503, 6532, 7403, 7424, 7425, 7426, 7505,
7506, 7809 and 7810 (refer to T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 shown on page 20). Section
6325 also has regulations located in 26 CFR Part 401, which is Temporary procedures and administration
regulations under the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Pub. L. 97-248). A single regulation
is listed in 26 CFR Part 401, being 401.6325-1 Release of liens with Federal Register entry at T.D. 7886, 48
FR 17069, Apr. 21, 1983; 48 FR 19878, May 3, 1983. The location of section 7403 regulations in 27 CFR
Part 70 is of particular importance for it specifies the action to enforce lien or to subject property to
payment of tax.
This leaves the following sections:
a) 545 - Undistributed personal holding company income
b) 3505 - Liability of third parties paying or providing for wages
c) 6324 - Special liens for estate and gift taxes
d) 7402 - Jurisdiction of district courts
e) 7421 - Prohibition of suits to restrain assessment or collection
f) 7809 - Deposit of collections
g) 7810 - Revolving fund for redemption of real property
None of the above (a) through (g) have final rule/regulation entered in the Federal Register, leaving them
without legal effect within the 50 State Republics. Therefore, enforcement of Lien for Taxes provisions are
governed explicitly through the authority of 27 CFR Part 70.141 Lien for taxes. Here it states "If any
person liable to pay any tax under provisions of 26 U.S.C. enforced and administered by the Bureau
neglects or refuses to pay the same after demand, the amount (including any interest, additional amount,
addition to tax, or assessable penalty, together with any costs that may accrue in addition thereto) shall
be a lien in favor of the United States upon all property and rights to property, whether real or personal,
tangible or intangible, belonging to such person". The words to note are "under provisions of 26 U.S.C.
enforced and administered by the Bureau" meaning enforcement is by BATF authority.
It has been common practice for IRS agents, apparently with the blessing and assistance of supervisory
personnel to use the "dummy SFRs entered in the Individual Master File (refer to Item 4 - Title 26 (IRC)
Section. 6020. Returns prepared for or executed by Secretary on page 9) and issue/file Notices of Lien
without having authority (IRC section 6201 - refer to Item 5 on page 10) or an assessment of legal effect
per IRC Section. 6203. Method of assessment (refer to Item 6 on page 10, and without authority (refer to
Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6301. Collection authority on page 12). 9. Title 26 (IRC) Section 6331 Levy and
distraint
Title 26 (IRC) Section 6331 Levy and distraint reads in subsection (a) who levy can be made upon: "Levy
may be made upon the accrued salary or wages of any officer, employee, or elected official, of the United
States, the District of Columbia, or any agency or instrumentality of the United States or the District of
Columbia". This is a definite statement and is backed by the authoritative regulation found in 27 CFR Part
70.161(a)(4)(i) (refer to T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 as shown on page 20), which is
further reinforced by the meaning given the term "employer in 70.161(a)(4)(i)(A) and (B):
(A) The officer or employee of the United States, the District of
Columbia, or of the agency or instrumentality of the United States or
the District of Columbia, who has control of the payment of the wages,
or
(B) Any other officer or employee designated by the head of the
branch, department, or agency, or instrumentality of the United States
or of the District of Columbia as the party upon whom service of the
notice of levy may be made.
It should be noted that 27 CFR Part 70.161(a)(4) lists others subject to levy on "wages" and does not
include an U.S. Citizen, or national living and working within the 50 State Republics.
As was stated in regards to liens, it has been common practice for IRS personnel to issue Notices of Levy
based on the "dummy SFRs without having authority (sections 6201 and 6301) and without proper
assessments (section 6203).
10. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 6682. False information with respect to withholding
It is to be noted that this section of the IRC has no regulatory entries in the Federal Register, therefore it
has no legal effect and not enforceable in regards to U.S. Citizens working and living within the 50 State
Republics. It is well known that U.S. companies, either being unaware of the definition of "wages" within
the IRC, or taking advice from faulted counsel, or bowing to threats and pressure from the IRS demand a
W-4 Form from all and therefore normally report remuneration as "wages" which are not such within the
meaning of IRC section 3401(a)(8)(A)(i) with regulations at 26 CFR section 31.3401-1 and IRC section
3121 and Title 42 section 409 with regulations at 20CFR section 404.2
There exists the possibility that the IRS, being fully aware that a W-4 Form is not required of all are
treating those demanded as "voluntary W-4 Forms under IRC section 3402.
Without authority having legal effect this section is unenforceable against U.S. Citizens living and working
within the 50 Sovereign Republics for private sector employers. Still, the IRS offices issue penalties
unlawfully using this section as their authority to do so.
The Notice of Liens and Levies issued by the IRS are not accompanied by a valid assessment and the IRS
has been unable to provide any under the FOIA that meet the lawful requirements of IRC section 6203. They
do not exist. The need for such has been recognized in the courts, the following cases are two that the IRS is
very aware of since it appears within their IRM and training material:
"Plaintiff relies heavily on Brafman v. United States, 384 F.2d 863 (5
th Cir. 1967), where an assessment wasinvalidated due to the lack of a signature on the 23C Form. This defect, however, was a significant violation of
the regulation…
… A signature requirement protects the taxpayer by ensuring that a responsible officer has approved the
assessment… " -
Curley v. U.S. 791 F. Supp 52 (E.D.N.Y. 1992) Cite as 764 FEDERAL SUPPLEMENTPage 315
"… However, there is no indication in the record before us that the "Summary Report of Assessments", known as
Form 23C, was completed and signed by the assessment officer as required by 26 CFR
§ 301.6203-1.3 Nor dothe Certificates of Assessments and Payments contain 23C dates which would allow us to conclude that a Form
23C form was signed on that date. See United States v. Dixon, 672 F. Supp. 503, 505-506 (M.D.Ala.1987). Thus
we find that the plaintiff has raised a factual question concerning whether IRS procedures were followed in
making the assessments…
This regulation provides, in relevant part, that "[t]he assessment shall be made by an assessment officer
signing the summary record of assessment… " – Brewer v. U.S. 764 F. Supp. 309 (S.D.N.Y. 1991)
11. Title 26 (IRC) Section. 7608. Authority of internal revenue enforcement officers
This section of the IRC is abused at will by IRS agents. The only final rule authorities giving legal effect
are found in 27 CFR Parts 70 (Procedure and administration), 170 (Miscellaneous regulations relating to
liquor), and 296 (Miscellaneous regulations relating to tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes).
Concentration will be on 27 CFR Part 70, subpart 33 as parts 170 and 296 apply only to those involved in
such activities.
In 70.33, Authority of enforcement officers of the Bureau it gives the following authorities to "Any special
agent or other officer of the Bureau by whatever term designated, whom the Director or a special agent in
charge charges with the duty of enforcing any of the criminal, seizure, or forfeiture provisions of the laws
administered and enforced by the Bureau pertaining to commodities subject to regulation by the Bureau,
the enforcement of which such officers are responsible, may perform the following functions
a) Carry firearms;
b) Execute and serve search warrants and arrest warrants, and serve subpoenas and
summonses issued under authority of the United States;
c) In respect to the performance of such duty, make arrests without warrant for any offense
against the United States committed in his presence, or for any felony cognizable under the
laws of the United States if he has reasonable grounds to believe that the person to be
arrested has committed, or is committing, such felony; and
d) In respect to the performance of such duty, make seizures of property subject to forfeiture to
the United States.
The wording "to "Any special agent or other officer of the Bureau" and "enforcing any of the criminal,
seizure, or forfeiture provisions of the laws administered and enforced by the Bureau" limit activity to the
BATF not the IRS. 27 CFR Part 70.33 was entered in the Federal Register at T.D. ATF-6, 38 FR 32445,
Nov. 26, 1973 as Part 70.28 (refer to page ?). In 1978 it was amended by T.D. ATF-48, 43 FR 13531,
Mar. 31, 1978. Redesignated by T.D. ATF-301, 55 FR 47606, Nov. 14, 1990 (Note: The use of the word
"Bureau" instead of "agency" in 26CFR601.101)
The abuses as given above indicate a deliberate and well planned theft of property by the IRS. Since it
followed an orderly path of violations it cannot be considered "accidental" or by "mistake". All actions are
inter-related and done deliberately. These acts are criminal in nature and may even be considered as treason
and conspiracy to commit treason.
Unfortunately, congress has given no remedies to U.S. Citizens. The remedies, Tax Court or District Court
are Article 1 Courts having territorial jurisdiction only. As the tax on income (Subtitle A) applies to taxpayers
residing or doing business abroad, foreign taxpayers deriving income from sources within the United States,
and taxpayers who are required to withhold tax on certain payments to nonresident aliens and foreign
corporations these remedies are appropriate. However, by petitioning the tax court, or making a plea or
presenting arguments in a U.S. District Court a U.S. Citizen grants them jurisdiction. In these courts,
particularly since the invocation of Treasury/IRS 46.002 it is a rarity to get to present the evidence of the tax
laws, or present knowledgeable witnesses. You are denied due process of law and judged on dicta.
Treasury/IRS 46.002 is the instrument by which the IRS-CID is tasked to monitor the performance of Article 1
court judges and U.S. Attorneys. This makes them subject to IRS harassment and threats, and even hints at
the possibility of "rewards based on performance".
The Tax Advocates and TIGTA are of no recourse either. They themselves are part of the fraudulent scheme,
misrepresenting what the Supreme Court has stated in regards to the 16
th Amendment, and offering nothingbut the recourse to courts of no true jurisdiction.
Congress, in Public Laws 105-206 Sec. 1203 gave guidance for Termination of Employment for Misconduct
which stated "Subject to subsection (c), the Commissioner of Internal Revenue shall terminate the
employment of any employee of the Internal Revenue Service if there is a final administrative or judicial
determination that such employee committed any act or omission described under subsection (b) in the
performance of the employee's official duties. Such termination shall be a removal for cause on charges of
misconduct." This is set out as a note in IRC section 7804. However, subsection (c) gives the commissioner
the choice of other action, therefore destroying the purpose of the Public Law as stated. It accomplished
nothing. Additionally, Public Law 107-67, sec. 803 further weakened and destroyed any true meaning by
changing the wording in the note to "may" in place of "shall". This note has regulatory final rule authority in 26
CFR Part 801.
In the Hearing Before the Subcommittee On Treasury, Postal Service and General Government Committee
On Appropriations U.S. House Of Representatives on March 21, 2001 the TIGTA stated that it needed to
continue to focus on rights by:
a) Restricting the use of enforcement statistics to evaluate IRS employees.
b) Not designating taxpayers as illegal tax protesters. (protester of an illegal tax?)
c) Providing proper and timely notice that a federal tax lien has been filed.
d) Not withholding information in response to taxpayers’ written requests for information under the
Freedom of Information Act of 1988 or the Privacy Act of 1974.
By their actions, as previously stated in this transmission they have lost their focus and continue to allow the
filing of liens and levies without proper assessments and continue to allow the withholding of information
under the Freedom of Information Act of 1988 or the Privacy Act of 1974.
There is no evidence that TIGTA, or the IRS feel compelled to fully comply with the Restructuring Act or to
redress personnel that routinely violate the Internal Revenue Laws, their regulations, the decision documents
of their own agencies, and the provisions of Title 5--Government Organization and Employees, Part I--The
Agencies Generally, Chapter 5--Administrative Procedure, Subchapter II--Administrative Procedure. They
operate with a feeling of impunity and not accountable for their fraudulent actions.
There is one saving section whereby a district director, service center director, or compliance center director
(director) can right the wrongs of these errant agents, that being IRC section 6343, whose regulations at 26
CFR 301.6343-1 and 301.6343-2 with final rule authority at T.D. 8587, 59 FR 35, Jan. 3, 1995.
If that is not done, then the federal government itself would be negligent if these agents were not charged
with violations of the Ethics in Government Act with authority at 27 CFR Part 70.333 (refer to T.D. ATF-301,
55 FR 47605, Nov. 14, 1990 shown on page 20); and at 5 CFR Part 3101 sourced at 60 FR 22251, May 5,
1995. These agents have operated under color of law and demanded, through fraudulent actions taxes that
are not even owed.
