8899 Shawnee Lane
Loma Linda, California
I, John L. Doe, of 8899 Shawnee Lane, Loma Linda, California, being duly sworn and
affixing my signature to this document, do hereby make the following statement of fact,
and affirm:
1. You did not fully disclose and I was not aware that, a completed, signed, and submitted
"Form 1040" or "income tax return" and a "W-4" "Employee's Withholding Allowance
money from his pay, are voluntarily executed instruments which could be used as prima
facie evidence against me in criminal trials and civil proceedings to show that I had
voluntarily waived my constitutionally secured rights and that I had voluntarily subjected
myself to the federal income/excise tax, to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code,
and to the authority of the Internal Revenue Service (hereafter referred to as the IRS) by
signing and thereby affirming under penalty of perjury that I was in effect a "person"
2. You did not fully disclose and I was not aware that, the legal effects of signing and
filing an income tax return as shown by the decision of the United States Court of appeals
for the 9th Circuit in the 1974 ruling in the case of Morse v. U.S., 494 F2d 876,880,
wherein the Court explained how a citizen became a "taxpayer" by stating: "Accordingly,
when returns were filed in Mrs. Morse's name declaring income to her for 1944 and 1945,
and making her potentially liable for the tax due in that income, she became a taxpayer
3. You did not fully disclose and I was not aware that, the signing and filing of an income
tax return and other IRS forms are acts of voluntary compliance for a free sovereign
individual citizen; that I was unaware that in a court of law the completed IRS documents
can become prima facie evidence sufficient to sustain a legal conclusion by a judge that
the signer has voluntarily changed his legal status from that of a free sovereign individual
citizen who is not subject to any federal tax and who possesses all of his god-given
Constitutionally secured rights when dealing with government, to the legal status of a
subject to a federal excise tax,) a “person” who is subject to a federal excise tax and is
therefore subject to the authority, jurisdiction and control of the federal government
under Title 26 of the United States Code, the statutes governing federal taxation and to
the regulations of the IRS, thereby imposing the tax on himself and waiving his God-
given Constitutionally secured rights in respect to the federal income/excise tax statutes
and their administration by the IRS and establishing himself as one who has privileges
only, but no rights in dealings with the IRS, the same as a corporation; that it is my
understanding that the change of status resulting from the signed IRS documents is very
similar to the change of status that occurs when one enlists in the military service and
voluntarily takes an oath that subjects him to the authority, jurisdiction and control of the
federal government under Title 10 of the United States Code, the statutes governing the
armed forces and the regulations of the military service, thereby waiving his
4. That I am a natural born free sovereign United States citizen, a freeman and I am
endowed by my Creator with numerous inalienable rights to “life, liberty, and the pursuit
happiness" has been interpreted by both the framers of the Constitution and the U.S.
Supreme Court as including my inalienable right to contract, to acquire, to deal in, to sell,
rent, and exchange properties of various kinds, real and personal, without requesting or
exercising any privilege or franchise from government; that I have learned that these
inalienable property rights also include my right to contract for the exchange of my labor-
property for other properties such as wages, salaries, and other earnings, that I have never
5. That I understand that if the exercise of rights were subjected to taxation, the rights
could be destroyed by increasing the tax rates to unaffordable levels; therefore courts
have repeatedly ruled that government has no power to tax the exercise of any rights of
citizens, as shown by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Murdock v. Penna., 319 U.S.
105 (1943) which stated: "A state may not impose a charge for the enjoyment of a right
made by the IRS via radio, television, the printed press and other public communication
media warning of the "deadline" for filing a "Form 1040 Income Tax Return" and/or
other IRS forms and documents and that I have been deliberately deceived.
7. That in addition to the aforesaid warnings, I have also been influenced by misleading
and deceptive wording of IRS publications, IRS-generated news articles, the pressure of
widespread rumors and misinformed public opinion, and the advice and assurances of
lawyers, C.P.A. 's and income tax preparers which misled me to incorrectly believe that
the 16th Amendment to the United States Constitution authorized Congress to impose a
deceived into believing I had a legal duty and obligation to file a "Form 1040 Income Tax
Return", a "Form W-4 Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate" and/or other IRS
8. That I have also been further deceived, misled and alarmed by rumors, misinformed
public opinion and the advice and assurance of lawyers, C.P.A.'s and income tax
preparers to the effect that "the IRS will get you," and that it would be a crime punishable
by fine and/or imprisonment if I did not fill out, sign and file with the IRS a "Form
1040".
9. That in addition to all of the reasons stated in paragraphs 6, 7, and 8 above, I was
deceived by the common and widespread practice of employers who either knowingly or
unknowingly mislead their employees to believe that they are all subject to withholding
of "income taxes" from their earnings, either with or without their permission, based
upon the employers' possible mistaken assumption that they, as employers, are required
10. That I have also been misled and impressed by the IRS’s annual public display and
indiscriminate offering of large quantities of the "Form 1040" in banks, post offices, and
through the U.S. mail which also reminded me of and induced me to respond by filling
11. That said “Form 1040” contained no reference to any law or laws which would
explain just exactly who is or is not subject to or liable for the income tax, nor did it
contain any notice or warning to anyone that merely sending said completed "Form
1040" to the IRS would waive my right to privacy secured by the 4th Amendment and
my right to not having to be a witness against myself secured by the 5th Amendment to
the United States Constitution, and that the "Form 1040" would in itself constitute legal
evidence admissible in a court of law, that the filer is subject to and liable for the
income/excise tax even though and regardless of the fact that I, as a free individual, am
actually and legally not subject to or liable for any income/excise tax and have no legal
12. That at no time was I ever notified or informed by the IRS, by any of its agents, or
employees, nor by any lawyer, C.P.A., or tax preparer of the fact that the 16th
and Stanton v. Baltic Mining Co., 240 U.S. 103 (1916) identified the income tax as an
indirect excise tax in accordance with Article 1, Section 8, Clause 1 of the United States
Constitution, and that the 16th Amendment does not authorize a tax on individuals.
13. You did not fully disclose nor was I ever notified or informed by the IRS, its agents,
or employees, nor by any lawyer, C.P.A., or tax preparer of the fact that because of
various rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court in such cases as Flint v. Stone Tracy Co., 220
U.S. 107 (1911), and Pollock v. Farmer's Loan and Trust Co., 157 U.S. 492 (1895), the
indirect excise tax on incomes identified by the 16th Amendment is actually a tax upon
income (see Corporations Tax Act, Statutes at Large, 1909, vol. XXXVI, section 38, page
112); that this excise tax is also imposed on the amounts of money received by non-
14. That my attention has been called to Report No. 80-19A, titled "Some Constitutional
Questions Regarding the Federal Income Tax Laws" published by the American Law
January 17, 1980; that this publication described the tax on "income" identified in the
16th Amendment of the United States Constitution as an indirect excise tax; that this
report stated: "The Supreme Court, in a decision written by Chief Justice White, first
noted that the 16th Amendment did not authorize any new type of tax, nor did it repeal or
revoke the tax clauses of Article I of the United States Constitution, quoted above.", and
further stated: "Therefore, it can clearly be determined from the decisions of the United
States Supreme Court that the income tax is an indirect tax, generally in the nature of an
excise tax,” thus proving in my mind that the "income tax" is not a tax on ME as an
individual, but is rather a tax as described by the U.S. Supreme Court in Flint v. Stone
Tracy Co., 220 U.S. 107 (1911), wherein the court defined excise taxes as "… taxes laid
upon the manufacture, sale, or consumption of commodities within the country, upon
licenses to pursue certain occupations, and upon corporate privileges.", none of which
15. That it was not disclosed and I was not made aware of the truth of the IRS's rarely
publicized statement that the "income" tax system is based upon "voluntary compliance
with the law and self-assessment of tax"; that it has never been my intention or desire to
voluntarily self-assess an excise tax upon myself; that I always thought that compliance
16. That I have examined sections 6001, 6011, 6012, 7203, and 7205 of the Internal
Revenue Code (Title 26 U.S.C. ) and I am convinced and satisfied that I am not now, and
17. That after careful study of the Internal Revenue Code and consultations on the
provisions of the Code with lawyers, tax accountants, and tax preparers, I have never
found or been shown any section of the Internal Revenue Code that imposed any
Income Tax Return", or that imposed a requirement upon me to pay a tax on "income," or
that would classify me as a "person liable," a "person made liable," or a "taxpayer," as the
term "taxpayer" is defined in 26 U.S.C. Section 7701 (a) (14) which states: "The term
18. That after the study and consultations mentioned in paragraph 17, the only mention of
any possible requirement upon ME, as an individual, to pay a tax on "income" that I
could find or was shown in 26 U.S.C. was the title of Part I under Subtitle A, Chapter 1,
Subchapter A, which is deceptively titled "Tax on Individuals;" that a careful study ,and
examination of this part of the Code showed no provision in the body of the statutes
showed that the law is determined by the actual wording contained in the body of a
statute, and not by the title; that the title of a statute is merely a general guide to the
contents of the statute, and the title has no force or effect at law.
19. That after study and consultations mentioned in paragraph 17, my attention was
called to Internal Revenue Code Chapter 21 titled "Federal Insurance Contributions Act"
includes Section 3101 wherein the (social security) tax is identified as a tax on "income,"
earnings; that my attention was further called to these facts: There is no provision in the
Code that imposes the tax on employees or requires them to pay the tax; a voluntarily
even though the worker has claimed on the form to be "exempt" from the graduated
"income" tax; an employer has no authority to withhold money from a worker's pay for
the (social security) "income" tax, the graduated "income" tax, or any IRS imposed
20. That after the study and consultations described in paragraph 17, my attention was
called to Section 61 {a) of the Internal Revenue Code which lists items that are sources of
"income" and to these facts: that I.R.S. Collection Summons Form 6638 (12-82) confirms
that these items are sources, not "income," by stating that the following items are
"sources": "wages, salaries, tips, fees, commissions, interest, rents, royalties, alimony,
state or local tax refunds, pensions, business income, gains from dealings in property, and
any other compensation for services (including receipt of property other than money).",
that sources are not income, but sources become "income" if they are entered as “income"
on a signed "Form 1040" because the signer affirms under penalty of perjury that the
items entered in the "income" section of the "Form 1040” are “income” to the signer; that
Section 61(b) clearly indicates which Sections of the Code identify and list items that are
included in "income" by stating: "For items specifically included in gross income, see
21. That my attention was then called to the said Part II, titled: "Items Specifically
Included in Gross Income;" that I studied sections 71 through 87 and noticed that wages,
salaries, commissions, tips, interest, dividends, pensions, rents, royalties, etc., are not
listed as being included in "income" in those sections of the code; that, in fact, those
items are not mentioned anywhere in any of these sections of the Internal Revenue Code.
22. That after further study it appears clear to me that the only way that property received
commissions, tips, interest, dividends, rents, royalties, and/or pensions could be, or could
"Form 1040 Income Tax Return," thereby affirming under penalty of perjury that
information on the "Form 1040" was true and correct, and that any amounts listed on the
"Form 1040" in the "income" block are "income," thereby acknowledging under oath that
I am, or was subject to the tax and have, or had a duty to file a "Form 1040 Income Tax
return" and/or other IRS forms, documents, and schedules, none of which instruments I
have ever signed with the understanding that they were voluntarily signed.
23. That with reliance upon the aforementioned U.S. Supreme Court rulings and upon my
constitutionally protected 5th and 9th Amendment rights to lawfully contract, to work,
and to lawfully acquire and possess property, I am convinced and satisfied that I am not
now, nor was I ever subject to, liable for, or required to pay any income/excise tax, that I
am not now and never was a "taxpayer" as the term is defined and used in the Internal
Revenue Code, and that I have never had any legal duty or obligation whatsoever to file
any "Form 1040" or make any "income tax return," sign any "Form W-4 Employee's
IRS.
24. That both the U.S. Congress and the IRS, by deceptive and misleading words and
statements in the Internal Revenue Code, as well as IRS publications and IRS-generated
news articles committed constructive fraud by misleading and deceiving me, as well as
the general public, into believing that I was required to file "Form 1040 Income Tax
Returns," "Form W-4 Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificates," and other IRS
forms, documents, and schedules, and also to keep records, supply information, and to
25. That by reason of the aforestated facts, I do hereby exercise my rights as a free
sovereign U.S. citizen, nunc pro tunc June 20, 1958 (your Birthdate) upheld by various
court decisions to revoke, rescind, cancel and to render null and void, ab initio, both
currently and retroactively to the time of signing, based upon the constructive fraud
perpetrated upon me by the U.S. Congress and the Internal Revenue Service, all "Form
1040 Income Tax Returns," all "Form W-4 Employee's Withholding Allowance
Certificates," all other IRS forms, schedules, and documents ever signed and/or submitted
by me, and all my signatures on any of the aforementioned items, to include the
"SOCIAL SECURITY" account, bearing the account number; that this revocation and
rescission is based upon my rights in respect to constructive fraud as established in, but
not limited to the cases of Tyler v. Secretary of State, 184 A.2d 101 (1962), and also El
Paso Natural Gas Co. v. Kysar Insurance Co., 605 Pacific 2d. 240 (1979) which stated:
“Constructive fraud as well as actual fraud may be the basis of cancellation of an
instrument.” The U.S. DOJ in 09-cr-043 at docket # 71, pg.4 admitted "district directors,"
were abolished in the year 2000. “11 depositions of high ranking treasury officials and
each of them, under oath, testified the position of "district director" was eliminated with
Means House of Representatives, Eighty Third Congress, 1953, Thursday February 3rd: :
Page 4, paragraph 4
“Let me point this out now: Your income tax is a 100 percent voluntary tax.”
26. That further, I do hereby declare that I am not and I never was a "taxpayer" as that
term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code, a "person liable" for any Internal Revenue
tax, or a "person" subject to the provisions of that Code, and declare that I am, and have
always been, a "nontaxpayer"; that courts have recognized and acknowledged that
individuals can be nontaxpayers, "... for with them Congress does not assume to deal and
they are neither of the subject nor of the object of revenue laws...", as stated by the Court
in Long v. Rasmussen, 281 F. 236 (1922), and also Delima v. Bidwell, 182 U.S. 176, 179
