§ 666. Requirement of statutorily prescribed procedures to improve effectiveness of child support enforcement

(a) Types of procedures required

In order to satisfy section 654 (20)(A) of this title, each State must have in effect laws requiring the use of the following procedures, consistent with this section and with regulations of the Secretary, to increase the effectiveness of the program which the State administers under this part:

(1)

(A) Procedures described in subsection (b) of this section for the withholding from income of amounts payable as support in cases subject to enforcement under the State plan.

(B) Procedures under which the income of a person with a support obligation imposed by a support order issued (or modified) in the State before January 1, 1994, if not otherwise subject to withholding under subsection (b) of this section, shall become subject to withholding as provided in subsection (b) of this section if arrearages occur, without the need for a judicial or administrative hearing.

(2) Expedited administrative and judicial procedures (including the procedures specified in subsection (c) of this section) for establishing paternity and for establishing, modifying, and enforcing support obligations. The Secretary may waive the provisions of this paragraph with respect to one or more political subdivisions within the State on the basis of the effectiveness and timeliness of support order issuance and enforcement or paternity establishment within the political subdivision (in accordance with the general rule for exemptions under subsection (d) of this section).

(3) Procedures under which the State child support enforcement agency shall request, and the State shall provide, that for the purpose of enforcing a support order under any State plan approved under this part—

(A) any refund of State income tax which would otherwise be payable to a noncustodial parent will be reduced, after notice has been sent to that noncustodial parent of the proposed reduction and the procedures to be followed to contest it (and after full compliance with all procedural due process requirements of the State), by the amount of any overdue support owed by such noncustodial parent;

(B) the amount by which such refund is reduced shall be distributed in accordance with section 657 of this title in the case of overdue support assigned to a State pursuant to section 608 (a)(3) or 671 (a)(17) of this title, or, in any other case, shall be distributed, after deduction of any fees imposed by the State to cover the costs of collection, to the child or parent to whom such support is owed; and

(C) notice of the noncustodial parent’s social security account number (or numbers, if he has more than one such number) and home address shall be furnished to the State agency requesting the refund offset, and to the State agency enforcing the order.

(4) Liens.— Procedures under which—

(A) liens arise by operation of law against real and personal property for amounts of overdue support owed by a noncustodial parent who resides or owns property in the State; and

(B) the State accords full faith and credit to liens described in subparagraph (A) arising in another State, when the State agency, party, or other entity seeking to enforce such a lien complies with the procedural rules relating to recording or serving liens that arise within the State, except that such rules may not require judicial notice or hearing prior to the enforcement of such a lien.

(5) Procedures concerning paternity establishment.—

(A) Establishment process available from birth until age 18.—

(i) Procedures which permit the establishment of the paternity of a child at any time before the child attains 18 years of age.

(ii) As of August 16, 1984, clause (i) shall also apply to a child for whom paternity has not been established or for whom a paternity action was brought but dismissed because a statute of limitations of less than 18 years was then in effect in the State.

(B) Procedures concerning genetic testing.—

(i) Genetic testing required in certain contested cases.— Procedures under which the State is required, in a contested paternity case (unless otherwise barred by State law) to require the child and all other parties (other than individuals found under section 654 (29) of this title to have good cause and other exceptions for refusing to cooperate) to submit to genetic tests upon the request of any such party, if the request is supported by a sworn statement by the party—

(I) alleging paternity, and setting forth facts establishing a reasonable possibility of the requisite sexual contact between the parties; or

(II) denying paternity, and setting forth facts establishing a reasonable possibility of the nonexistence of sexual contact between the parties.

(ii) Other requirements.— Procedures which require the State agency, in any case in which the agency orders genetic testing—

(I) to pay costs of such tests, subject to recoupment (if the State so elects) from the alleged father if paternity is established; and

(II) to obtain additional testing in any case if an original test result is contested, upon request and advance payment by the contestant.

(i) Simple civil process.— Procedures for a simple civil process for voluntarily acknowledging paternity under which the State must provide that, before a mother and a putative father can sign an acknowledgment of paternity, the mother and the putative father must be given notice, orally, or through the use of video or audio equipment, and in writing, of the alternatives to, the legal consequences of, and the rights (including, if 1 parent is a minor, any rights afforded due to minority status) and responsibilities that arise from, signing the acknowledgment.

(ii) Hospital-based program.— Such procedures must include a hospital-based program for the voluntary acknowledgment of paternity focusing on the period immediately before or after the birth of a child.

(iii) Paternity establishment services.—

(I) State-offered services.— Such procedures must require the State agency responsible for maintaining birth records to offer voluntary paternity establishment services.

(II) Regulations.—

(aa) Services offered by hospitals and birth record agencies.— The Secretary shall prescribe regulations governing voluntary paternity establishment services offered by hospitals and birth record agencies.

(bb) Services offered by other entities.— The Secretary shall prescribe regulations specifying the types of other entities that may offer voluntary paternity establishment services, and governing the provision of such services, which shall include a requirement that such an entity must use the same notice provisions used by, use the same materials used by, provide the personnel providing such services with the same training provided by, and evaluate the provision of such services in the same manner as the provision of such services is evaluated by, voluntary paternity establishment programs of hospitals and birth record agencies.

(iv) Use of paternity acknowledgment affidavit.— Such procedures must require the State to develop and use an affidavit for the voluntary acknowledgment of paternity which includes the minimum requirements of the affidavit specified by the Secretary under section 652 (a)(7) of this title for the voluntary acknowledgment of paternity, and to give full faith and credit to such an affidavit signed in any other State according to its procedures.

(D) Status of signed paternity acknowledgment.—

(i) Inclusion in birth records.— Procedures under which the name of the father shall be included on the record of birth of the child of unmarried parents only if—

(I) the father and mother have signed a voluntary acknowledgment of paternity; or

(II) a court or an administrative agency of competent jurisdiction has issued an adjudication of paternity.

Nothing in this clause shall preclude a State agency from obtaining an admission of paternity from the father for submission in a judicial or administrative proceeding, or prohibit the issuance of an order in a judicial or administrative proceeding which bases a legal finding of paternity on an admission of paternity by the father and any other additional showing required by State law.

(ii) Legal finding of paternity.— Procedures under which a signed voluntary acknowledgment of paternity is considered a legal finding of paternity, subject to the right of any signatory to rescind the acknowledgment within the earlier of—

(I) 60 days; or

(II) the date of an administrative or judicial proceeding relating to the child (including a proceeding to establish a support order) in which the signatory is a party.

(iii) Contest.— Procedures under which, after the 60-day period referred to in clause (ii), a signed voluntary acknowledgment of paternity may be challenged in court only on the basis of fraud, duress, or material mistake of fact, with the burden of proof upon the challenger, and under which the legal responsibilities (including child support obligations) of any signatory arising from the acknowledgment may not be suspended during the challenge, except for good cause shown.

(E) Bar on acknowledgment ratification proceedings.— Procedures under which judicial or administrative proceedings are not required or permitted to ratify an unchallenged acknowledgment of paternity.

(F) Admissibility of genetic testing results.— Procedures—

(i) requiring the admission into evidence, for purposes of establishing paternity, of the results of any genetic test that is—

(I) of a type generally acknowledged as reliable by accreditation bodies designated by the Secretary; and

(II) performed by a laboratory approved by such an accreditation body;

(ii) requiring an objection to genetic testing results to be made in writing not later than a specified number of days before any hearing at which the results may be introduced into evidence (or, at State option, not later than a specified number of days after receipt of the results); and

(iii) making the test results admissible as evidence of paternity without the need for foundation testimony or other proof of authenticity or accuracy, unless objection is made.

(G) Presumption of paternity in certain cases.— Procedures which create a rebuttable or, at the option of the State, conclusive presumption of paternity upon genetic testing results indicating a threshold probability that the alleged father is the father of the child.

(H) Default orders.— Procedures requiring a default order to be entered in a paternity case upon a showing of service of process on the defendant and any additional showing required by State law.

(I) No right to jury trial.— Procedures providing that the parties to an action to establish paternity are not entitled to a trial by jury.

(J) Temporary support order based on probable paternity in contested cases.— Procedures which require that a temporary order be issued, upon motion by a party, requiring the provision of child support pending an administrative or judicial determination of parentage, if there is clear and convincing evidence of paternity (on the basis of genetic tests or other evidence).

(K) Proof of certain support and paternity establishment costs.— Procedures under which bills for pregnancy, childbirth, and genetic testing are admissible as evidence without requiring third-party foundation testimony, and shall constitute prima facie evidence of amounts incurred for such services or for testing on behalf of the child.

(L) Standing of putative fathers.— Procedures ensuring that the putative father has a reasonable opportunity to initiate a paternity action.

(M) Filing of acknowledgments and adjudications in state registry of birth records.— Procedures under which voluntary acknowledgments and adjudications of paternity by judicial or administrative processes are filed with the State registry of birth records for comparison with information in the State case registry.

(6) Procedures which require that a noncustodial parent give security, post a bond, or give some other guarantee to secure payment of overdue support, after notice has been sent to such noncustodial parent of the proposed action and of the procedures to be followed to contest it (and after full compliance with all procedural due process requirements of the State).

(7) Reporting arrearages to credit bureaus.—

(A) In general.— Procedures (subject to safeguards pursuant to subparagraph (B)) requiring the State to report periodically to consumer reporting agencies (as defined in section 1681a (f) of title 15) the name of any noncustodial parent who is delinquent in the payment of support, and the amount of overdue support owed by such parent.

(B) Safeguards.— Procedures ensuring that, in carrying out subparagraph (A), information with respect to a noncustodial parent is reported—

(i) only after such parent has been afforded all due process required under State law, including notice and a reasonable opportunity to contest the accuracy of such information; and

(ii) only to an entity that has furnished evidence satisfactory to the State that the entity is a consumer reporting agency (as so defined).

(8)

(A) Procedures under which all child support orders not described in subparagraph (B) will include provision for withholding from income, in order to assure that withholding as a means of collecting child support is available if arrearages occur without the necessity of filing application for services under this part.

(B) Procedures under which all child support orders which are initially issued in the State on or after January 1, 1994, and are not being enforced under this part will include the following requirements:

(i) The income of a noncustodial parent shall be subject to withholding, regardless of whether support payments by such parent are in arrears, on the effective date of the order; except that such income shall not be subject to withholding under this clause in any case where

(I) one of the parties demonstrates, and the court (or administrative process) finds, that there is good cause not to require immediate income withholding, or

(II) a written agreement is reached between both parties which provides for an alternative arrangement.

(ii) The requirements of subsection (b)(1) of this section (which shall apply in the case of each noncustodial parent against whom a support order is or has been issued or modified in the State, without regard to whether the order is being enforced under the State plan).

(iii) The requirements of paragraphs (2), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9), and (10) of subsection (b) of this section, where applicable.

(iv) Withholding from income of amounts payable as support must be carried out in full compliance with all procedural due process requirements of the State.

(9) Procedures which require that any payment or installment of support under any child support order, whether ordered through the State judicial system or through the expedited processes required by paragraph (2), is (on and after the date it is due)—

(A) a judgment by operation of law, with the full force, effect, and attributes of a judgment of the State, including the ability to be enforced,

(B) entitled as a judgment to full faith and credit in such State and in any other State, and

except that such procedures may permit modification with respect to any period during which there is pending a petition for modification, but only from the date that notice of such petition has been given, either directly or through the appropriate agent, to the obligee or (where the obligee is the petitioner) to the obligor.

(10) Review and adjustment of support orders upon request.—

(A) 3-year cycle.—

(i) In general.— Procedures under which every 3 years (or such shorter cycle as the State may determine), upon the request of either parent or if there is an assignment under part A of this subchapter, the State shall with respect to a support order being enforced under this part, taking into account the best interests of the child involved—

(I) review and, if appropriate, adjust the order in accordance with the guidelines established pursuant to section 667 (a) of this title if the amount of the child support award under the order differs from the amount that would be awarded in accordance with the guidelines;

(II) apply a cost-of-living adjustment to the order in accordance with a formula developed by the State; or

(III) use automated methods (including automated comparisons with wage or State income tax data) to identify orders eligible for review, conduct the review, identify orders eligible for adjustment, and apply the appropriate adjustment to the orders eligible for adjustment under any threshold that may be established by the State.

(ii) Opportunity to request review of adjustment.— If the State elects to conduct the review under subclause (II) or (III) of clause (i), procedures which permit either party to contest the adjustment, within 30 days after the date of the notice of the adjustment, by making a request for review and, if appropriate, adjustment of the order in accordance with the child support guidelines established pursuant to section 667 (a) of this title.

(iii) No proof of change in circumstances necessary in 3-year cycle review.— Procedures which provide that any adjustment under clause (i) shall be made without a requirement for proof or showing of a change in circumstances.

(B) Proof of substantial change in circumstances necessary in request for review outside 3-year cycle.— Procedures under which, in the case of a request for a review, and if appropriate, an adjustment outside the 3-year cycle (or such shorter cycle as the State may determine) under clause (i), the State shall review and, if the requesting party demonstrates a substantial change in circumstances, adjust the order in accordance with the guidelines established pursuant to section 667 (a) of this title.

(C) Notice of right to review.— Procedures which require the State to provide notice not less than once every 3 years to the parents subject to the order informing the parents of their right to request the State to review and, if appropriate, adjust the order pursuant to this paragraph. The notice may be included in the order.

(11) Procedures under which a State must give full faith and credit to a determination of paternity made by any other State, whether established through voluntary acknowledgment or through administrative or judicial processes.

(12) Locator information from interstate networks.— Procedures to ensure that all Federal and State agencies conducting activities under this part have access to any system used by the State to locate an individual for purposes relating to motor vehicles or law enforcement.

(A) any applicant for a professional license, driver’s license, occupational license, recreational license, or marriage license be recorded on the application;

(B) any individual who is subject to a divorce decree, support order, or paternity determination or acknowledgment be placed in the records relating to the matter; and

For purposes of subparagraph (A), if a State allows the use of a number other than the social security number to be used on the face of the document while the social security number is kept on file at the agency, the State shall so advise any applicants.

(14) High-volume, automated administrative enforcement in interstate cases.—

(A) In general.— Procedures under which—

(i) the State shall use high-volume automated administrative enforcement, to the same extent as used for intrastate cases, in response to a request made by another State to enforce support orders, and shall promptly report the results of such enforcement procedure to the requesting State;

(ii) the State may, by electronic or other means, transmit to another State a request for assistance in enforcing support orders through high-volume, automated administrative enforcement, which request—

(I) shall include such information as will enable the State to which the request is transmitted to compare the information about the cases to the information in the data bases of the State; and

(II) shall constitute a certification by the requesting State—

(aa) of the amount of support under an order the payment of which is in arrears; and

(bb) that the requesting State has complied with all procedural due process requirements applicable to each case;

(iii) if the State provides assistance to another State pursuant to this paragraph with respect to a case, neither State shall consider the case to be transferred to the caseload of such other State (but the assisting State may establish a corresponding case based on such other State’s request for assistance); and

(I) the number of such requests for assistance received by the State;

(II) the number of cases for which the State collected support in response to such a request; and

(III) the amount of such collected support.

(15) Procedures to ensure that persons owing overdue support work or have a plan for payment of such support.— Procedures under which the State has the authority, in any case in which an individual owes overdue support with respect to a child receiving assistance under a State program funded under part A of this subchapter, to issue an order or to request that a court or an administrative process established pursuant to State law issue an order that requires the individual to—

(A) pay such support in accordance with a plan approved by the court, or, at the option of the State, a plan approved by the State agency administering the State program under this part; or

(B) if the individual is subject to such a plan and is not incapacitated, participate in such work activities (as defined in section 607 (d) of this title) as the court, or, at the option of the State, the State agency administering the State program under this part, deems appropriate.

(16) Authority to withhold or suspend licenses.— Procedures under which the State has (and uses in appropriate cases) authority to withhold or suspend, or to restrict the use of driver’s licenses, professional and occupational licenses, and recreational and sporting licenses of individuals owing overdue support or failing, after receiving appropriate notice, to comply with subpoenas or warrants relating to paternity or child support proceedings.

(17) Financial institution data matches.—

(A) In general.— Procedures under which the State agency shall enter into agreements with financial institutions doing business in the State—

(i) to develop and operate, in coordination with such financial institutions, and the Federal Parent Locator Service in the case of financial institutions doing business in two or more States, a data match system, using automated data exchanges to the maximum extent feasible, in which each such financial institution is required to provide for each calendar quarter the name, record address, social security number or other taxpayer identification number, and other identifying information for each noncustodial parent who maintains an account at such institution and who owes past-due support, as identified by the State by name and social security number or other taxpayer identification number; and

(ii) in response to a notice of lien or levy, encumber or surrender, as the case may be, assets held by such institution on behalf of any noncustodial parent who is subject to a child support lien pursuant to paragraph (4).

(B) Reasonable fees.— The State agency may pay a reasonable fee to a financial institution for conducting the data match provided for in subparagraph (A)(i), not to exceed the actual costs incurred by such financial institution.

(i) for any disclosure of information to the State agency under subparagraph (A)(i);

(ii) for encumbering or surrendering any assets held by such financial institution in response to a notice of lien or levy issued by the State agency as provided for in subparagraph (A)(ii); or

(iii) for any other action taken in good faith to comply with the requirements of subparagraph (A).

(D) Definitions.— For purposes of this paragraph—

(i) Financial institution.— The term “financial institution” has the meaning given to such term by section 669A (d)(1) of this title.

(ii) Account.— The term “account” means a demand deposit account, checking or negotiable withdrawal order account, savings account, time deposit account, or money-market mutual fund account.

(18) Enforcement of orders against paternal or maternal grandparents.— Procedures under which, at the State’s option, any child support order enforced under this part with respect to a child of minor parents, if the custodial parent of such child is receiving assistance under the State program under part A of this subchapter, shall be enforceable, jointly and severally, against the parents of the noncustodial parent of such child.

(19) Health care coverage.— Procedures under which—

(A) effective as provided in section 401(c)(3) of the Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998, all child support orders enforced pursuant to this part shall include a provision for medical support for the child to be provided by either or both parents, and shall be enforced, where appropriate, through the use of the National Medical Support Notice promulgated pursuant to section 401(b) of the Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998 (and referred to in section 609(a)(5)(C) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 [29 U.S.C. 1169 (a)(5)(C)] in connection with group health plans covered under title I of such Act [29 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.], in section 401(e) of the Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998 in connection with State or local group health plans, and in section 401(f) of such Act in connection with church group health plans);

(B) unless alternative coverage is allowed for in any order of the court (or other entity issuing the child support order), in any case in which a parent is required under the child support order to provide such health care coverage and the employer of such parent is known to the State agency—

(i) the State agency uses the National Medical Support Notice to transfer notice of the provision for the health care coverage of the child to the employer;

(ii) within 20 business days after the date of the National Medical Support Notice, the employer is required to transfer the Notice, excluding the severable employer withholding notice described in section 401(b)(2)(C) of the Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998, to the appropriate plan providing any such health care coverage for which the child is eligible;

(iii) in any case in which the parent is a newly hired employee entered in the State Directory of New Hires pursuant to section 653a (e) of this title, the State agency provides, where appropriate, the National Medical Support Notice, together with an income withholding notice issued pursuant to subsection (b), within two days after the date of the entry of such employee in such Directory; and

(iv) in any case in which the employment of the parent with any employer who has received a National Medical Support Notice is terminated, such employer is required to notify the State agency of such termination; and

(C) any liability of the obligated parent to such plan for employee contributions which are required under such plan for enrollment of the child is effectively subject to appropriate enforcement, unless the obligated parent contests such enforcement based on a mistake of fact.

Notwithstanding section 654 (20)(B) of this title, the procedures which are required under paragraphs (3), (4), (6), (7), and (15) need not be used or applied in cases where the State determines (using guidelines which are generally available within the State and which take into account the payment record of the noncustodial parent, the availability of other remedies, and other relevant considerations) that such use or application would not carry out the purposes of this part or would be otherwise inappropriate in the circumstances.

(b) Withholding from income of amounts payable as support

The procedures referred to in subsection (a)(1)(A) of this section (relating to the withholding from income of amounts payable as support) must provide for the following:

(1) In the case of each noncustodial parent against whom a support order is or has been issued or modified in the State, and is being enforced under the State plan, so much of such parent’s income must be withheld, in accordance with the succeeding provisions of this subsection, as is necessary to comply with the order and provide for the payment of any fee to the employer which may be required under paragraph (6)(A), up to the maximum amount permitted under section 1673 (b) of title 15. If there are arrearages to be collected, amounts withheld to satisfy such arrearages, when added to the amounts withheld to pay current support and provide for the fee, may not exceed the limit permitted under such section 1673 (b), but the State need not withhold up to the maximum amount permitted under such section in order to satisfy arrearages.

(2) Such withholding must be provided without the necessity of any application therefor in the case of a child (whether or not eligible for assistance under a State program funded under part A of this subchapter) with respect to whom services are already being provided under the State plan under this part, and must be provided in accordance with this subsection on the basis of an application for services under the State plan in the case of any other child in whose behalf a support order has been issued or modified in the State. In either case such withholding must occur without the need for any amendment to the support order involved or for any further action (other than those actions required under this part) by the court or other entity which issued such order.

(3)

(A) The income of a noncustodial parent shall be subject to such withholding, regardless of whether support payments by such parent are in arrears, in the case of a support order being enforced under this part that is issued or modified on or after the first day of the 25th month beginning after October 13, 1988, on the effective date of the order; except that such income shall not be subject to such withholding under this subparagraph in any case where

(i) one of the parties demonstrates, and the court (or administrative process) finds, that there is good cause not to require immediate income withholding, or

(ii) a written agreement is reached between both parties which provides for an alternative arrangement.

(B) The income of a noncustodial parent shall become subject to such withholding, in the case of income not subject to withholding under subparagraph (A), on the date on which the payments which the noncustodial parent has failed to make under a support order are at least equal to the support payable for one month or, if earlier, and without regard to whether there is an arrearage, the earliest of—

(i) the date as of which the noncustodial parent requests that such withholding begin,

(ii) the date as of which the custodial parent requests that such withholding begin, if the State determines, in accordance with such procedures and standards as it may establish, that the request should be approved, or

(iii) such earlier date as the State may select.

(4)

(A) Such withholding must be carried out in full compliance with all procedural due process requirements of the State, and the State must send notice to each noncustodial parent to whom paragraph (1) applies—

(i) that the withholding has commenced; and

(ii) of the procedures to follow if the noncustodial parent desires to contest such withholding on the grounds that the withholding or the amount withheld is improper due to a mistake of fact.

(B) The notice under subparagraph (A) of this paragraph shall include the information provided to the employer under paragraph (6)(A).

(5) Such withholding must be administered by the State through the State disbursement unit established pursuant to section 654b of this title, in accordance with the requirements of section 654b of this title.

(6)

(A)

(i) The employer of any noncustodial parent to whom paragraph (1) applies, upon being given notice as described in clause (ii), must be required to withhold from such noncustodial parent’s income the amount specified by such notice (which may include a fee, established by the State, to be paid to the employer unless waived by such employer) and pay such amount (after deducting and retaining any portion thereof which represents the fee so established) to the State disbursement unit within 7 business days after the date the amount would (but for this subsection) have been paid or credited to the employee, for distribution in accordance with this part. The employer shall withhold funds as directed in the notice, except that when an employer receives an income withholding order issued by another State, the employer shall apply the income withholding law of the State of the obligor’s principal place of employment in determining—

(I) the employer’s fee for processing an income withholding order;

(II) the maximum amount permitted to be withheld from the obligor’s income;

(III) the time periods within which the employer must implement the income withholding order and forward the child support payment;

(IV) the priorities for withholding and allocating income withheld for multiple child support obligees; and

(V) any withholding terms or conditions not specified in the order.

An employer who complies with an income withholding notice that is regular on its face shall not be subject to civil liability to any individual or agency for conduct in compliance with the notice.

(ii) The notice given to the employer shall be in a standard format prescribed by the Secretary, and contain only such information as may be necessary for the employer to comply with the withholding order.

(iii) As used in this subparagraph, the term “business day” means a day on which State offices are open for regular business.

(B) Methods must be established by the State to simplify the withholding process for employers to the greatest extent possible, including permitting any employer to combine all withheld amounts into a single payment to each appropriate agency or entity (with the portion thereof which is attributable to each individual employee being separately designated).

(C) The employer must be held liable to the State for any amount which such employer fails to withhold from income due an employee following receipt by such employer of proper notice under subparagraph (A), but such employer shall not be required to vary the normal pay and disbursement cycles in order to comply with this paragraph.

(D) Provision must be made for the imposition of a fine against any employer who—

(i) discharges from employment, refuses to employ, or takes disciplinary action against any noncustodial parent subject to income withholding required by this subsection because of the existence of such withholding and the obligations or additional obligations which it imposes upon the employer; or

(ii) fails to withhold support from income or to pay such amounts to the State disbursement unit in accordance with this subsection.

(7) Support collection under this subsection must be given priority over any other legal process under State law against the same income.

(8) For purposes of subsection (a) of this section and this subsection, the term “income” means any periodic form of payment due to an individual, regardless of source, including wages, salaries, commissions, bonuses, worker’s compensation, disability, payments pursuant to a pension or retirement program, and interest.

(9) The State must extend its withholding system under this subsection so that such system will include withholding from income derived within such State in cases where the applicable support orders were issued in other States, in order to assure that child support owed by noncustodial parents in such State or any other State will be collected without regard to the residence of the child for whom the support is payable or of such child’s custodial parent.

(10) Provision must be made for terminating withholding.

(11) Procedures under which the agency administering the State plan approved under this part may execute a withholding order without advance notice to the obligor, including issuing the withholding order through electronic means.

The procedures specified in this subsection are the following:

(1) Administrative action by State agency

Procedures which give the State agency the authority to take the following actions relating to establishment of paternity or to establishment, modification, or enforcement of support orders, without the necessity of obtaining an order from any other judicial or administrative tribunal, and to recognize and enforce the authority of State agencies of other States to take the following actions:

(A) Genetic testing

To order genetic testing for the purpose of paternity establishment as provided in subsection (a)(5) of this section.

(B) Financial or other information

To subpoena any financial or other information needed to establish, modify, or enforce a support order, and to impose penalties for failure to respond to such a subpoena.

To require all entities in the State (including for-profit, nonprofit, and governmental employers) to provide promptly, in response to a request by the State agency of that or any other State administering a program under this part, information on the employment, compensation, and benefits of any individual employed by such entity as an employee or contractor, and to sanction failure to respond to any such request.

(D) Access to information contained in certain records

To obtain access, subject to safeguards on privacy and information security, and subject to the nonliability of entities that afford such access under this subparagraph, to information contained in the following records (including automated access, in the case of records maintained in automated data bases):

(i) Records of other State and local government agencies, including—

(I) vital statistics (including records of marriage, birth, and divorce);

(II) State and local tax and revenue records (including information on residence address, employer, income and assets);

(A) seek to void such transfer; or

(B) obtain a settlement in the best interests of the child support creditor.

Sterling, Lynn here <htrails@solve.net>. I've got a dear friend who's an attorney in SLC. He sent me this. Interesting.

Friends --

The Gadianton robber band has done it again! Laman, the Liberal, and Lemuel, the Republicrat, have again combined in the secret (voting) chamber to enact another bi-partisan law that requires you and your children to be marked like federal slaves with the number of your name.

Section 666 of Title 42 (the Social Security Act) (42 USC Sec. 666) -- now requires every state, as a condition of Federal Revenue Sharing, to obtain "the number of your name" before you can receive any state services (e.g., a license to work, a license to drive, a license to marry).

IOW, we can not get a job, or open a bank account, or drive a car -- in short, we can not buy or sell unless we are marked by the beast and show the number of our name. Section 666 of the Social Security Law now requires all states to obtain the mark of our loyalty to the beast we worship -- all for the lofty purpose of locating "dead beat dads" who won't pay child support.

How subtil and crafty. Under the guise of caring for the "fatherless," the Gadianton gang now forces us all to be marked with the federal number of our name -- and show our mark of loyalty every time we seek state administered services. Section 666 of the "Work Oppotunity Law" requires it!

Section 666 sounds like something straight out of 3 Nephi 3, when Giddianhi, the commander and chief of the Gadianton robbers, sent Governor Lachoneus an Executive Order. This Executive Order was written as an invitation to participate in Federal Revenue Sharing -- or else. In truth, it was a surrender or die ultimatum to Governor Lachoneus from the Gadianton government. Yield up your cities, your lands and your possessions -- and become acquainted with our secret works, and become (political) partners in all our substance, not as slaves, but as our brethren.

Or else we will visit you with the sword. As you may recall, shortly before his voice of thunder went silent, the Lord's prophet, ETB, urged us to read 3 Nephi and liken it unto our day. In 3 Nephi 1 we learn that the Gadianton government set apart a day on which all those who believe in the coming of the Moshiach will be put to death unless a sign appears in heaven. By this time, the Gadianton robbers had taken over sole management of the government, with the help of wicked Nephites who had "dwindled in UN belief."

The Gadianton commander and chief then writes his surrender or die ultimatum to Governor Lachoneus, inviting him to submit to the new laws for Federal Revenue Sharing -- Section 666.

3 Nephi 3:6

6 Therefore I write unto you, desiring that ye would yield up unto this my people, your cities, your lands, and your possessions, rather than that they should visit you with the sword and that destruction should come upon you.

3 Nephi 3:7

7 Or in other words, yield yourselves up unto us, and unite with us and become acquainted with our secret works, and become our brethren that ye may be like unto us--not our slaves, but our brethren and partners of all our substance.

3 Nephi 3:8

8 And behold, I swear unto you, if ye will do this, with an oath, ye shall not be destroyed; but if ye will not do this, I swear unto you with an oath, that on the morrow month I will command that my armies shall come down against you, and they shall not stay their hand and shall spare not, but shall slay you, and shall let fall the sword upon you even until ye shall become extinct.

3 Nephi 3:9

9 And behold, I am Giddianhi; and I am the governor of this the secret society of Gadianton; which society and the works thereof I know to be good; and they are of ancient date and they have been handed down unto us.

3 Nephi 3:10

10 And I write this epistle unto you, Lachoneus, and I hope that ye will deliver up your lands and your possessions, without the shedding of blood, that this my people may recover their rights and government, who have dissented away from you because of your wickedness in retaining from them their rights of government, and except ye do this, I will avenge their wrongs. I am Giddianhi.

- - - - - - - - - -

How very much like the ultimatums of our day -- in the contest over state sovereignty. Have we all dwindled in UN belief, like the wicked Nephites

–

so we can share in the Gadianton spoils? How much longer will we worship the beast that has marked us all with the number of our name?

666 - "THE SYSTEM"

by Scott McDonald

[Updated 6/10/99]

You too are subject to the following laws -- if not directly, then indirectly due to the nature of their enforcement.

The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996, Public Law 104-193, established a locating and tracking database system which transcends all borders -- even international ones. Under this system, any parent charged with owing passed-due child support payments must have their wages garnished, bank accounts seized, and tax refunds withheld in addition to their driver's licenses, business licenses, and passports being revoked. Consequently, every American must be subjected to these same data collection requirements in order for the system to function as intended.

In addition to the state-run databases, state and federal agencies now have open access to records held by private entities such as electric, phone, pager, and cable t.v. companies. All employers must likewise open their records to enforcement agencies and must also generate monthly reports on their employees to send to the state which are in turn reported to a federal database. These laws even extend to private contracting parties.

Once this system is perfected, other violations of other laws will be gradually incorporated into the internationally linked locating and tracking payment-enforcement system.

The best source for verifying the following information is the Social Security Administration's own web page:

"TITLE IV--GRANTS TO STATES FOR AID AND SERVICES TO NEEDY FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN AND FOR CHILD-WELFARE SERVICES"

http://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/ssact/title04/0400.htm

What you are about to read is a compilation of excerpts from section 666 of the United States Code, which is where the above stated requirements are set out. Codified laws and statutes are difficult to read in their native format. To simplify reading, paragraph and section numbering have been removed and sentences were allowed to flow together where appropriate. The following has not been embellished in any way other than the addition of a very few comments which are so indicated with [square brackets].

[The excerpts from 666 begins here. Remember, if it is not in brackets it is federal law.]

"REQUIREMENT OF STATUTORILY PRESCRIBED PROCEDURES TO IMPROVE EFFECTIVENESS OF CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT"

http://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/ssact/title04/0466.htm

42 USC Sec. 666 CHAPTER 7 - SOCIAL SECURITY Part D - Child Support and Establishment of Paternity. Sec. 666. Requirement of statutorily prescribed procedures to improve effectiveness of child support enforcement. Each State must enact laws requiring the use of the following "procedures" to increase the effectiveness of the [child support] program:

DNA TESTING

The State shall provide procedures which permit the establishment of the paternity of a child. In a contested paternity case [the State shall] require the child and all other parties to submit to genetic tests upon request supported by a sworn statement by the party alleging paternity, and setting forth facts establishing a reasonable possibility of the requisite sexual contact between the parties; or denying paternity, and setting forth facts establishing a reasonable possibility of the nonexistence of sexual contact between the parties. If no objection is made, the test results are admissible as evidence of paternity without the need for other proof of authenticity or accuracy. States must give full faith and credit to a determination of paternity made by any other State. The State procedures shall provide that the parties to an action to establish paternity are not entitled to a trial by jury.

GARNISHMENT OF WAGES

The State shall provide procedures for child support withholding from wages. The wages of an absent parent shall be subject to withholding, regardless of whether support payments are in arrears. The employer, upon being given notice, is required to withhold wages in the amount specified by the notice and pay such amount to the appropriate agency. The employer must be held liable to the State for any amount which the employer fails to withhold from wages due an employee following receipt of the notice. A fine [shall be] imposed against any employer who discharges from employment, refuses to employ, or takes disciplinary action against any absent parent subject to wage withholding because of the existence of such withholding and the obligations or additional obligations which it imposes upon the employer. The State may withhold from forms of income other than wages regardless of the nature of their income-producing activities. The State must extend its withholding system [to provide for withholding in] cases where the applicable support orders were issued in other States. Any refund of State income tax will be reduced by the amount of any overdue support owed by an absent parent.

CREDIT REPORTING AND SUSPENSION OF LICENSES

[The procedures must assure that] [t]he State has authority to withhold or suspend, or to restrict the use of driver's licenses, professional and occupational licenses, and recreational licenses of individuals owing overdue support or failing, to comply with subpoenas or warrants relating to paternity or child support proceedings.

ACCESS TO RECORDS, LOCATING INDIVIDUALS, REQUIRING SSN

The State shall have procedures to ensure that all Federal and State agencies conducting activities under this part have access to any system used by the State to locate an individual for purposes relating to motor vehicles or law enforcement. The state shall have procedures requiring that the social security number of: (A) any applicant for a professional license, driver's license, occupational license, recreational license, or marriage license be recorded on the application; (B) any individual who is subject to a divorce decree, support order, or paternity determination or acknowledgment be placed in the records relating to the matter; and (C) any individual who has died be placed in the records relating to the death and be recorded on the death certificate.

FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

[The State enforcement agency] shall enter into agreements with financial institutions doing business in the State to develop and operate a data match system using automated data exchanges in which each such financial institution is required to provide the name, address, social security number or other identifying information for each noncustodial parent who maintains an account at such institution and who owes past-due support, and will encumber or surrender, as the case may be, assets held by such institution on behalf of the parent. A financial institution shall not be liable under any Federal or State law to any person for any disclosure of information to the State agency; for encumbering or surrendering any assets [under these laws]; or for any other action taken in good faith to comply with the requirements. [This system of automated bank withdrawal or withholding will eventually be used to pay everything the State collects including: fines, taxes and any other fees, without your approval; you'll have no more choice in the matter than the dead beat dads now have.] The State shall periodically report to consumer reporting agencies [credit bureaus] the name [and social security number] of any parent who owes overdue support. AUTOMATED DATA COLLECTION

The State shall establish an automated data collection system (linked database) to include a registry to be known as the 'State Case Registry' that contains records with respect to each case in which services are being provided by a State agency. Each [child] support order established or modified in the State on or after October 1, 1998, shall be included in the State Case Registry. [The information in the State Case Registries shall be] furnished to the Federal Case Registry of Child Support Orders. The State Case Registry may be established by linking local case registries of [child] support orders through an automated information network [no one will hide from this]. Such records shall use standardized data elements for both parents (such as names, social security numbers and other uniform identification numbers, dates of birth, and case identification numbers), and other information as the Secretary may require. The State agency operating the automated system shall establish, update, maintain, and regularly monitor, case records in the State Case Registry. The State shall use the automated system to extract information (at such times, and in such standardized format or formats, as may be required by the Secretary), to share and compare information with, and to receive information from, other databases and information comparison services, in order to obtain (or provide) information necessary to enable the State agency (or the Secretary or other State or Federal agencies) to carry out this part.

NEW HIRES DIRECTORY On and after October 1, 1997, each State shall establish an automated directory (to be known as the 'State Directory of New Hires') which shall contain information supplied on each newly hired employee in the State. The State will operate a State Directory of New Hires in accordance with section 453A. Each employer shall furnish to the Directory of New Hires of the State in which a newly hired employee works, a report that contains the name, address, and social security number of the employee, and the name and address of the employer [eventually, everyone who has a job will be listed in this database.

ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITY

The State shall have procedures which give the State [enforcement agency] the authority to take the following actions relating to establishment of paternity or to establishment, modification, or enforcement of support orders, without the necessity of obtaining an order from any other judicial or administrative tribunal, to take the following actions: To subpoena any financial or other information needed to establish, modify, or enforce a support order, and to impose penalties for failure to respond to such a subpoena; To require all entities in the State (including for-profit, nonprofit, and governmental employers) to provide promptly, in response to a request by the State agency of that or any other State administering a program under this part, information on the employment, compensation, and benefits of any individual employed by such entity as an employee or contractor, and to sanction failure to respond to any such request; To obtain access, subject to safeguards on privacy and information security, and subject to the nonliability of entities that afford such access under this subparagraph, to information contained in the following records (including automated access, in the case of records maintained in automated data bases): (i) Records of other State and local government agencies, including vital statistics (including records of marriage, birth, and divorce); State and local tax and revenue records (including information on residence address, employer, income and assets); records concerning real and titled personal property; records of occupational and professional licenses, and records concerning the ownership and control of corporations, partnerships, and other business entities; employment security records; records of agencies administering public assistance programs; records of the motor vehicle department; and corrections records; (ii) Certain records held by private entities with respect to individuals who owe or are owed support (or against or with respect to whom a support obligation is sought), consisting of the names and addresses of such individuals and the names and addresses of the employers of such individuals, as appearing in customer records of public utilities and cable television companies, pursuant to an administrative subpoena; and. information (including information on assets and liabilities) on such individuals held by financial institutions.

REVOCATION OF PASSPORTS

If the Secretary receives a certification that an individual owes arrearages of child support in an amount exceeding $5,000, the Secretary shall transmit such certification to the Secretary of State for action with respect to denial, revocation, or limitation of passports, and refuse to issue a passport to such individual, and may revoke, restrict, or limit a passport issued previously to such individual.

INTERNATIONAL ENFORCEMENT

The Secretary of State, with the concurrence of the Secretary of Health and Human Services, is authorized to declare any foreign country to be a foreign reciprocating country if the foreign country has established, or undertakes to establish, procedures for the establishment and enforcement of duties of [child] support substantially in conformity with [these laws].

MARK OF THE BEAST -- 42 USC Sec. 666 SOURCE: http://freedompage.home.mindspring.com/666a.htm

......and the name of the Beast is 666. For those of you who said 30-40 years ago that the Social Security Number would be the Mark of the Beast, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that you can say you were right. The bad news is that almost everyone in this Nation founded on Christian principles has the Mark. Americans can not get a job, get a drivers license, have a bank account, get a loan, vote, or even file a tax return with out the Mark of the Beast. Big Brother (The Devil?) knows what you make, what you have, and where to find you. Next will come fingerprinting and electronic banking. You will not even be able to purchase food or medicine for yourself or your family without the Mark of the Beast. Your children will be (most are now) raised and schooled by the Beast. Now, with "hate crimes", "thought police", and federal monitors in the schools to report little "children who pray" to the federal court, I challenge you to name a single area of your physical life not controlled by the government. The technology exists to put your "life information" on a chip (similar to the magnetic strip on a credit card) and to implant the chip under the skin. There is already talk in Washington of using implants in the U.S. military for "identification purposes". Will the rest of America be next?

Don't believe it? The above are just a few areas where The Mark of the Beast already controls your life. The Constitution of America no longer exists, federal courts operate under international law ( not Constitutional law), the bill of rights are gone, the states have no rights, YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS! "Freedom" web sites such as this one are now labeled "hate talk" and may not exist much longer. Since we hate tyranny, we are considered dangerous by the government. Also, through Non Government Organizations (NGO's) and environmentalist groups supported by The Beast, the lifestyle of your family will forever change.

Thanks to Scott McDonald, current and proposed laws have been researched, and the extent of control will amaze you. For much more information on Section 666, visit http://www.networkusa.org/42usc666.txt or visit Scott's site at http://www.networkusa.org/fingerprint.shtml . Following are some of Scott's thoughts and research results.

The devil's in the details. And you'll need to pay close attention to recognize the deception hiding in the details of the recently enacted "Balanced Budget Act of 1997," (H.R.2015).

As you must already know, back in 1996 Congress enacted the "Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996" - Public Law 104-193, which established the largest, most intrusive locating and tracking database system ever imagined by mankind.

Under the pretext of cracking down on ''deadbeat dads'' a national system was implemented which will allow State and Federal agencies to "locate" absent parents anywhere across the country to extract unpaid child support payments. A parent who falls behind on payments will have their real property encumbered, bank accounts seized, wages garnished, tax refunds intercepted, and all occupational and business licenses either suspended or withheld.

P.L. 104-193 also provided that in order for the States to continue to receive "Child Support Program" and "Aid to Families With Dependent Children" federal funding the States must collect data on all productive members of society so that the information can be fed into a data collection system. The information will then be used to identify and locate the personal possessions and assets of any targeted delinquent parent.

Sec. 317, of the Act amended Title 42 U.S.C. 666(a)(13) to require that, as a condition to receiving federal funds States must "establish procedures requiring that the social security number of any applicant for a professional license, commercial driver's license, recreational license, occupational license, or marriage license be recorded on the application"

Here's where you must pay special attention to the details. Notice that it does not say "driver's license". Notice that the second type of license for which the States must obtain a SSN is a "commercial driver's license". It just so happens that there is a 170 million license difference between these two classes of licensed drivers!

Back in 1996 when H.R.3734 was being debated it was much easier to overcome any opposition to the SSN requirement with it applying to only to the 10 million or so "commercial" drivers in the country. There's simply fewer numbers of negatively affected subjects out there to raise objections when the legislation only imposes upon a relatively small segment of the population as this bill first did.

However, just one year after the SSN requirements were implemented, Congress DELETED the word "COMMERCIAL" from this section of the Act, thereby changing the scope of the SSN requirement so as to now apply to ALL 180 MILLION LICENSED DRIVERS. By deleting that one word: "commercial" the "Balanced Budget Act of 1997" served to expand the scope of Title 42 U.S.C. 666(a)(13) from what was a relatively small group of about 10 million commercial driver's to now include all of the nearly 180 million non-commercial licensed drivers in the U.S.

DO NOT THINK that the people responsible for drafting this legislation just "forgot" to include the additional 170 million drivers on the first go-around.... not on your life. They intended to enact the softly worded version first. Then, they simply waited a year and surreptitiously modified the wording to consummate their dirty deed. It was intended all along.

But wait, there's more... Followers of this subject may remember that P.L. 104-193 provided that the States could optionally choose to use a number other than a social security number. Title 42 U.S.C. Sec 666(a)(13) previously stated that, for the purposes of administering the licensing requirements of that section -- "if a State allows the use of a number other than the social security number, the State shall so advise any applicants."

Clearly, the States were given an option to use another number other than a social security number and still be in compliance with the Act's funding requirements. However, H.R.2015 has now amended Title 42 U.S.C. Sec. 666(a)(13) by adding just twenty-one new words that completely change the meaning of that section of law. The wording of Section 666(a)(13) now prohibits the States from using any number other than a social security number if they want to continue to receive the funding!

The law now reads: "if a State allows the use of a number other than the social security number to be used on the face of the document while the social security >number is kept on file at the agency,< the State shall so advise any applicants."

So now the States may use another number only "on the face of the license" but must obtain the 180 million SSNs from all licensed driver's and feed them into Big Brother's nationally accessible locating and tracking database for future use.

You may be wondering what they need all those SSNs for anyway. The SSN is the universal identification number with which the Child Support Enforcement Agency will locate the dead-beat dads. To this end title 42 U.S.C. Sec. 666(a)(12) was amended to require that each participant State must implement procedures to "ensure that all Federal and State agencies conducting activities under [the child support enforcement laws] have access to any system used by the State to locate an individual for purposes relating to motor vehicles or law enforcement." And, Title 42 U.S.C. Sec. 666(a)(16) requires that the States must implement procedures under which "the State has (and uses in appropriate cases) authority to withhold or suspend, or to restrict the use of driver's licenses, professional and occupational licenses, and recreational and sporting licenses of individuals owing overdue support..." [parenthetical statement in original]

This way, their licenses can be easily located and seized should they ever need to be for any reason - oh, I mean should the person ever fail to pay child support. We must all be willing to relinquish just a little tiny bit of our freedoms to get at those dead-beats you know. You'll hardly even notice -- if it is done a little at a time.

And I almost forgot to mention, "sporting" licenses were also added by H.R.2015 to the list of revocable licenses. I guess we'll have to wait and see if this provision will ever be used as authority to seize someone's "pistol permit" license???

Once all the bugs are worked out this huge data collection system will surely and inevitably be expanded to include additional classes of social misfits.

After all, the only thing standing in the way of that now is just a few... little... words......

Number of the Beast

and the

American Bar Association

Is the Social Security Number (SSN) just a number to identify Americans or is it the number of the Mark of the Beast? (Or is this just a bad joke by bad lawyers?)

Revelations Chapter 13 speaks of a beast who "forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666."

Title 42, Section 666

Title 42, Section 666, paragraph "13" of the United States Code (USC) requires that as a condition to receiving federal funds States must establish procedures requiring that the social security number (SSN) of any applicant for a professional license, driver's license, recreational license, occupational license, or marriage license be recorded on the application.

Also, if you assign the number value of each letter in the word "Title" relative to how each number appears in the alphabet, these five numbers add up to 66. 4 + 2 equals 6. Therefore, Title 42 adds up to 666 in numerology, completing a second "666" in front of "Section 666". The odds of this occurring "by coincidence" are astronomical. The fact that these numbers are being used to restrict and control basic human rights that one needs to survive is further evidence that this is not just a coincidence.

This SSN requirement occurred in 1996 when Title 42, Section 666, paragraph 13 was amended by Section 317 of the "Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996" (Public Law 104-193). The intent was to make this uniform throughout all the States. Can you guess who was behind this?

If you guessed "lawyers", you are right on the mark. Did not Congress pass these laws and isn't the most prevalent profession in Congress lawyers, i.e., members of the "Bar Association"? Also, when the so-called "Patriot Act" was passed by Congress, none of the congressmen actually read the bill! The Orwellian Patriot Act and Real ID Act were both introduced by lawyer/politician Jim Sensenbrenner. According to Sensenbrenner's Wikipedia page, one the authors of the Patriot Act was "Assistant Attorney General of the United States Viet Dinh" (i.e., another lawyer).

Section 321 of Public Law 104-193 (which amended aforementioned Section 666, paragraph 13) states:

"SEC. 321. ADOPTION OF UNIFORM STATE LAWS.

"Section 466 (42 U.S.C. 666) is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:

"`(f) UNIFORM INTERSTATE FAMILY SUPPORT ACT - In order to satisfy section 454(20)(A), on and after January 1, 1998, each State must have in effect the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act, as approved by the American Bar Association on February 9, 1993, together with any amendments officially adopted before January 1, 1998 by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws.'."

The question we should be asking ourselves is: Why does each State have to get the approval of the "American Bar Association"? The American Bar Association is not a government entity! Here again is a documented example of the violation of the separation of powers doctrine--that is, tyranny. The "Father of the Constitution", James Madison, stated in the Federalist Papers: "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."

Most people do not believe that the Social Security Number is the Mark of the Beast, but until you actually revoke it and try to survive without that number, you will never realize how much your survival depends upon it.

Even though there is no constitutional provision for a social security number, Americans can no longer get a bank account to conduct their business without a social security number. You cannot get a credit card without a Social Security Number. You cannot get a professional or occupational license to make a living without a social security number. No one will hire you as an employee if you do not have a social security number. Even if you have a job or business, how are you going to get to work without a driver's license (unless you happen to live in a city with public transportation)? You can be imprisoned for not having a driver's license. You cannot get insurance without a social security number. You cannot get a hunting or fishing license without a social security number. You cannot get a marriage license without a social security number. How are you going to buy a home or car unless you have the cash or credit? The bottom line is that you cannot buy or sell (that is, survive financially) without a Social Security Number unless somebody with a Social Security Number is providing for you by buying your food, clothing, shelter and all the things you need to survive.

Although there is no law that forces people to obtain a SSN (the 13th Amendment prohibits slavery and "involuntary servitude"), once you get a SSN, you will be stuck with it for the rest of your life because the Social Security Administration will never rescind it. Also, if someone with a SSN is providing your worldly needs, they cannot deduct you as a dependent unless you have a SSN.

Here are few more important facts about the Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS):

1. The Social Security Administration is not authorized by the United States Constitution and therefore is unconstitutional.

2. The Social Security Administration is not even located in Washington D.C., the constitutional seat of the "federal" government. The SSA is located in Baltimore, Maryland.

3. The Social Security Administration does not even have franking privileges. That is, they have to pay for their own postage on their mailings. Since the US Post Office is authorized by the Constitution, there is no need for federal entities to purchase postage when conducting "official business". If the SSA were a legitimate entity under the Constitution it would have franking privileges, but it does not.

4. The Social Security system is broke: http://www.ronpaulforcongress.com/html/social_security.html.

5. According to a form letter sent from the Social Security Administration in Baltimore, Maryland, the IRS has jurisdiction over the SSA.

6. The IRS is not an agency of the US government according to official court documents filed by the US Attorney in the following case in Idaho: http://sedm.org/Exhibits/EX08.002.pdf.

Given 1) that the IRS has jurisdiction over the Social Security Administration and 2) that the IRS is not an agency of the US government, the next question we should all be asking is where do people's payments to the IRS go? To answer that question correctly one must determine what is being paid to the IRS--that is, Federal Reserve Notes (or "checks" denominated in Federal Reserve Note "dollars"). According to Black's Law Dictionary, the definition of money cannot include "notes". A note is a promise to pay or "IOU" and is not "payment" in itself. Federal Reserve Notes are not money. According to the US Constitution, the only currency that can pay debts is silver and gold coin. Federal Reserve notes (i.e., "bills of credit") are prohibited by the Constitution.

What we do know is that the checks that people send to the IRS are cashed by large banks in the Federal Reserve system, such as "Bank of America". Sometimes the back of cancelled checks list a large bank then state: "or pay to the nearest FRB". "FRB" stands for Federal Reserve Bank. Since the Federal Reserve is a secretive, privately-controlled banking cartel, We the People are apparently not allowed to know where these "notes" end up. It is doubtful that these "notes" ever reach the United States Department of the Treasury. It appears that they end up at the Federal Reserve to be applied as interest to the national debt to these banksters. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was unconstitutional from the start because Congress cannot lawfully amend the US Constitution with a mere statute.

During the Constitutional Convention the delegates used the words "emit bills of credit" to refer to the issuance of paper (debt-based) currency. The framers of the Constitution were so adamant about prohibiting the printing of paper currency that one of the delegates, George Reed of Delaware, exclaimed that if they put the words "emit bills of credit" in the Constitution it would be "as alarming as the mark of the beast in Revelation!"

There are some people who will argue that the Mark of the Beast is a microchip implant and that they haven't accepted this implant, therefore they haven't accepted the mark. Today some people have accepted biochip implants in their hand or wrist and some governments are gradually mandating them in certain circumstances. However, virtually every adult who has a Social Security "Number" has memorized it and therefore some argue that the number is lodged in their forehead (brain).

Of course, there is the possibility that these unconstitutional laws are simply a result of a weird sense of humor on the part of the Bar Association lawyers who wrote these laws. Another possibility is that these lawyers (or the people behind the lawyers) were creating a means to control group thought. According to one pro-Rockefeller book, David Rockefeller and his attorney, CIA Director Allen Dulles, met after church on Sundays to discuss how they could control religious thinking.

There is currently a great interview on Google Video of Aaron Russo, the producer/director of the movie "Freedom to Fascism". In this interview Mr. Russo describes his friendship with Nick Rockefeller who through time revealed to him that their plan was to control society by creating a cashless society and "chipping" everyone.

666

The number 666 is well known to be associated with the Number of the Beast. The Bible puts it this way: Revelations 13:17, "the name of the beast or the number of it's name." There is no doubt the SSN is the Mark, because of the first part of 13:17, "so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark." Now think about what that says and what it means. To "buy or sell" is just another way of saying "financial transaction" isn't it. That certainly includes earning a living, ie getting a job. But it's also every financial transaction you make. How are most of those transactions facilitated today? Via credit or debit card. Try to get either of these without an SSN and see how far you get. So where is the 666? It's public information. The United States Government's full list of laws are call the "United States Code." If you go to Title 42, United States Code, Section 666, you will find where the Social Security Number is now mandated on all licenses. No SSN, no license. Here it is verbatim:

42 US 666 (13) Recording of social security numbers in certain family matters.— Procedures requiring that the social security number of—

(A) any applicant for a professional license, driver’s license, occupational license, recreational license, or marriage license be recorded on the application;

UPDATE! In addition to all that is listed below, there is a new licensing requirement coming down the road. You are reading this on the internet. You are not seeing this information on the news at 5pm, nor in any newspaper or magazine. There may be some private newsletters out there, but I've never seen one informing people of the informtion I provide here. Now what if this site were silenced? Can't happen? Think again. Obama's Cybersecurity Act of 2009 . EFF Link, Link. So now you can add your "internet license" to this list below if you work in IT.

When you see "drivers licenses" here is what that means:

The standard drivers license most "normal" people have

Bus Driver

Truck Driver (trucks having a GVWR (gross vehicle weight) over 26,000lbs)

Taxi and Livery Drivers, (less than 14 passengers)

When you see "occupational license" here is what that means:

Business Licenses

Supplemental business licenses

Conditional driver's license for the use to and from work or school.

When you see "recreational license" here is what that means:

Fishing license

Amateur radio license (HAM radio)

Boating license

Pilot license

Hunting license

Trapping license

Snowmobile license

Personal Water Craft license

ATV license

Ethanol distillation license

If you participate any any of these activities, you can't get the license without the number.

If you think you are not included because none of the above applies to you, just wait a couple of years when one of the New Employee Verification Acts gets made into law under the guise of "immigration reform."

Not only that, but how do you get a bank account without an SSN? You have to have the bank account to get the ATM or Debit cart, and you can't get the bank account without the number. You used to be able to get a non-interest bearing account, but they shut that one down a decade ago. And don't even think about filing out one of those credit aps without the number. Forget buying a car unless you pay cash. Forget a owning a house unless you happened to get one before all these laws were implimented.

Not only does 42 US 666 mandate the SSN, but it links all government databases. And 42 US 666 mandates the computerization and modernization of such databases to be readily available:

42 US 666 (14) High-volume, automated administrative enforcement in interstate cases.—

(A) In general.— Procedures under which—

(i) the State shall use high-volume automated administrative enforcement, to the same extent as used for intrastate cases, in response to a request made by another State to enforce support orders, and shall promptly report the results of such enforcement procedure to the requesting State;

Furthermore, when a person in Texas tried to get a license to be a crop duster, the state refused to issue one because the applicant refused to provide an SSN due to his religious beliefs. It went to the Texas State Attorney General, who quoted and referenced Title 42, section 666 as the reason they could not issue the license. This was a license the man needed to do his job to earn a living. Quoting the Texas AG: "It is the federal statute that specifically enumerates occupational licenses. See 42 U.S.C. 5 666(a)(13) (2000)." The set of numbers, 666 is referenced over 40 times in the AG's answer. The entire decision is based on 42 USC 666. Do you really think it's just a coincidence?

Need more proof? It'll help if you know the full scope of the problem. You probably think the Social Security Administration was a creation by the Roosevelt aministration in 1932. That's only partially true. The ISSA (International Social Security Administration) actually predates Roosevelt's system by 5 years. You might also think the United States is the only country that has SSNs. But again you'd be wrong. At least 170 (at last count) countries participate in the Social Security System. Thus it's worldwide.
