Ask AI: What are the required steps to becoming a State National?

"Becoming a State National" commonly refers to a controversial and often misunderstood concept championed by groups arguing against the authority of the federal government in the United States. They claim that being a "state national" allows individuals to be exempt from laws, taxes, and other responsibilities of being a U.S citizen yet still enjoy the benefits. However, it's important to understand that this belief is not recognized by U.S. law or the U.S. government. All U.S citizens must follow federal laws and pay federal taxes, regardless of the state they live in. The Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution clearly establishes that people born in the U.S are granted citizenship at both state and federal levels. There is no legal process to become a "state national" without also being a U.S. citizen. Here's a general path to becoming a U.S. citizen, which by default, makes you a state national: 1. Immigration eligibility: Based on family, job, or refugee/asylum status. 2. Green Card Step: Apply for a green card or adjust your status to become a permanent resident. 3. Waiting period: Wait a specific period usually around 5 years, could be less for some categories. 4. File Form N-400: This starts your official naturalization process. 5. Biometric screening: Expect a fingerprint screening and background checks. 6. Interview and exam: Attend the official interview and take the U.S. civics test. 7. Receive a decision: If approved, you'll take the Oath of Allegiance and become a citizen. Always consult a legal expert or representative for advice related to immigration or legal status.
