State-national source paperwork: file and evidence map
Scope. This is a source-audited organizer for paperwork described by the Global Family Group and related assembly materials. It documents what the publisher currently asks for, what must be checked with an actual government office, and what evidence proves only that a step happened. It does not assume that a private declaration changes citizenship, nationality, tax status, court jurisdiction, licensing, title, or any agency record.
The two processes must not be conflated
The current Global Family Group source describes a short Universal Declaration / recording workflow. The Wisconsin Assembly recording-secretary cover workbook separately identifies a minimum “1779” set and a larger “928” set. The interface keeps all three as distinct source branches. It does not silently treat a publisher's checklist as a government filing requirement.
| Branch | Current source statement | Included in generator |
|---|---|---|
| Universal declaration | One declaration plus two witness testimonies and identity support | Yes — first supported workflow |
| Federal-employee variant | Separate declaration version for the source-defined federal-employee branch | Yes — intake choice |
| Assembly “1779” | Declaration branch, birth certificate, and two witness testimonies; cover workbook calls this its credential-card minimum | Checklist supported; template files must still be versioned |
| Assembly “928” | The complete 1779 set plus the core 928 documents below | Checklist supported; template files must still be versioned |

Assembly 1779 and 928 source map
This map is transcribed from the local research copy of
AssemblyMemberFileCoverPage.xlsx, found under the Wisconsin Assembly shared
folder at How to Build an Assembly/Recording Secretary/. The companion
Purpose and Benefit of the Documents for Recording Secretaries.xlsx supplies
publisher explanations and execution notes. Neither workbook is shipped in the
application image, and their legal claims are not adopted here.
1779 minimum identified by the cover workbook
| File or evidence | Source classification | Verification boundary |
|---|---|---|
| 1779 Declaration of Naturalization | Core; select the factually applicable American-born, immigrant, naturalized, undocumented, or federal-employee source branch | Preserve exact template/version; the declaration is not itself proof of government-recognized nationality |
| Birth certificate copy | Core supporting evidence | Keep private and outside Git/container |
| Witness Testimony 1 | Core | Preserve witness and execution evidence privately |
| Witness Testimony 2 | Core | Use a distinct witness where the current source requires it |
| Passport photo and credential thumbprint | Separately tracked credential evidence | Do not store biometric or identity material in the hosted application image |
| Assembly cover, recording number, date, and fee | Completion evidence | A source-system record proves that source-system event, not a change to an agency record |
Additional core items identified for the 928 set
The cover workbook says the 928 branch also requires the complete 1779 set.
| File or evidence | Source classification | Important branch or limit |
|---|---|---|
| Deed of Reconveyance or Conveyance | Core alternative | Source branch requires fact and legal review |
| Certificate of Assumed Name / Notice of Transfer of Reserved Name | Core | Publisher name/estate/lien theories require independent verification |
| Act of Expatriation and Oath of Allegiance — full middle name | Core name-style form | Source may request multiple variants; do not infer a nationality change |
| Act of Expatriation and Oath of Allegiance — middle initial | Core name-style form | Preserve the reason and exact form version |
| Act of Expatriation and Oath of Allegiance — no middle name | Core name-style form | Preserve the reason and exact form version |
| Cancellation of All Prior Powers of Attorney | Core; exceptions branch available | Review any real agency relationship before use |
| Mandatory Notice — Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act / Notice of Liability | Core | A private notice does not automatically establish foreign-state status or immunity |
| Paramount Claim of the Life and the Estate (DNA) | Core private claim | No copyright, property, or government effect is assumed |
| Recording cover sheet | Source workflow item | Actual receiving-office requirements must be checked separately |
“Other Documents” tracked as optional, not core
The workbook separately lists: Revocation of Election to Pay Taxes (DC and NY), Notice of Intent / Fee Schedule, Declaration of Political Status, state/county voter cancellation, military cancellation or retirement notice, militia participant record, Common Carry Declaration, Baby Deed / Record of Life, and a Sign in America training affirmation. The interface defaults these to optional. Tax, voter, military, firearms, and vital-record effects require the governing law and the responsible agency's accepted record; inclusion in a private packet does not establish those effects.
Current Universal Declaration file set
| # | File or evidence | Quantity | Classification | Completion evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Source page/version snapshot | 1 | Source workflow control | URL, access date, form number, SHA-256 of downloaded form |
| 2 | Birth certificate or other birth evidence | 1 | Supporting identity evidence requested by source | Exact record type and issuing office; do not publish it |
| 3 | Government photo ID or passport | 1 | Supporting identity evidence requested by source | Document type only; do not copy into the repo |
| 4 | Passport-quality 2×2 photos | 3 | Source-required supply | Filename or physical-storage note |
| 5 | Universal Public Declaration of Political Status, form 547.5.1 | 1 | Source-required private declaration | Final PDF, execution date, witness/notary evidence |
| 5a | Federal-employee declaration, form 547.4.1 | 1 instead of #5 | Alternate source branch | Reason branch was selected and final executed copy |
| 6 | Witness Testimony Affirming Political Status and Identity, form 110.2.1 | 2 testimony pages for different primary witnesses | Source-required private testimony | Final pages, witness identities/contact retained privately, execution evidence |
| 7 | Witnessing or notarial evidence | Per selected execution path | Source-required execution step; local law still applies | Notarial certificate/seal or witness signatures and dates |
| 8 | Receiving-office requirements | Per office | Government-required only if an actual office accepts the document | Office name, written rule, fees, formatting, rejection criteria |
| 9 | Submission/publication/recording receipt | 1 per destination | Completion evidence | Timestamp, receipt/rejection, recording number, exact submitted PDF |
| 10 | Independent effect verification | Per claimed effect | Government or legal evidence | Agency response, corrected official record, order, or counsel analysis |
Current direct source forms:
- Form 547.5.1 — Universal Public Declaration
- Form 547.4.1 — federal-employee variant
- Form 110.2.1 — two witness testimony pages
The publisher currently instructs users to fill but not sign before the chosen witness/notary session, use two different primary witnesses for the two testimonies, and upload a PDF or image into its profile system. Those are publisher instructions, not conclusions about public law.
State and county picker
Every case records:
- state or District of Columbia;
- county / intended receiving office area;
- source branch and source-form version;
- the exact working and final filename;
- status, evidence, completion date, rejection, and next action.
The state choice does not rewrite a national template automatically. It selects the jurisdictional research layer that must be completed before submission: notary law, recorder authority, formatting, fees, indexing, document type, and the office capable of producing the claimed official effect.
Wisconsin starting layer
- A Wisconsin register of deeds records documents authorized by law to be recorded and applies the standard format rules in Wis. Stat. § 59.43. A private publisher calling something “recordable” is not the same as statutory authorization. See the Wisconsin Legislature statute search and an official county recording-requirements example.
- Wis. Stat. § 706.05 concerns instruments affecting title to Wisconsin land; it requires signatures, authorized authentication, and information suitable for the land-record indexes. It is not a general mechanism for converting a personal declaration into a government citizenship record.
- Wisconsin birth-record copies and amendments use the state/local vital-record system described by Wisconsin DHS. Recording a different private paper elsewhere does not itself amend a vital record.
Public-law verification boundary
The phrase “American State National” used by the private sources is not assumed to equal the federal statutory category “national, but not citizen, of the United States.” Federal law defines categories of noncitizen nationality in 8 U.S.C. § 1408, and USCIS currently explains that people born in American Samoa or Swains Island are the ordinary present example. A source declaration is evidence of the declarant's statement; proof of a federal status requires the governing law and an accepted government record or adjudication.
Generator rules
- Never alter or reproduce a publisher's core form as if it were an original Trusts GUI form. Link to the current source and record its version.
- Never put birth records, IDs, witness contact details, personal final PDFs, or local filesystem paths in Git or the public container.
- Generate a cover sheet, checklist, and evidence log first. Form filling comes only after field mapping and version verification.
- A status such as
signed,recorded, orverifiedhas a distinct meaning. “Recorded” requires a receipt/number; “verified” requires evidence of the specific asserted effect. - Rejection is retained as evidence, not overwritten.
Local research corpus
The three public MEGA folders were inventoried on 2026-07-15 with the local
Python mirror tool: 2,401 files / 152,287,673,520 bytes total. The filtered
document corpus is 919 files / 715,549,967 bytes. The expanded known
non-media selection is 1,340 files / 781,591,525 bytes, adding raster images
and one PowerPoint document. Known audio/video formats, OpenShot project files,
the media-named ZIP, and unidentified extensionless transfer objects are
excluded. Everything under data/downloads/ is local-only and is never copied
into the hosted Trusts GUI image.
