Tax residency rules differ by country. Whether an individual is tax resident of a particular country is often (but not always) based on the amount of
time a person spends in a country, the location of a person's residence or place of work. For the US, tax residency can be as a result of
citizenship or residency. Please answer both tax residency questions:
a) Are you an Australian resident for tax purposes?
b) Are you a tax resident of another country?

Social Security Number in the US. If a TIN is not provided, please list one of the three reasons specified (A, B or C) for not providing a TIN.
