To determine if you have any affiliation with the United States, you can consider the following factors:

  1. Citizenship: If you hold US citizenship, either by birth or naturalization, you are affiliated with the US.

  2. Permanent Residency: If you have a Green Card, which grants you permanent residency in the US, you are affiliated with the US.

  3. Tax Residency: The US considers individuals who meet certain criteria to be tax residents, regardless of citizenship or immigration status. The substantial presence test is used to determine tax residency based on the number of days spent in the US over a three-year period.

  4. Employment or Business Connections: If you work for a US-based company or have a business presence in the US, such as a branch or subsidiary, you may have an affiliation with the US.

  5. Property Ownership: Owning property in the US, such as a house or real estate, can establish an affiliation with the country.

  6. Financial Accounts: If you hold US bank accounts, investment accounts, or other financial assets, it may indicate an affiliation with the US.

  7. Family Connections: Having immediate family members who are US citizens or residents can also create an affiliation with the US.

It's important to note that the determination of affiliation with the US may have legal, tax, and financial implications. If you believe you may have an affiliation with the US, it is recommended to consult with a qualified tax advisor or immigration attorney who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific circumstances.
