It is a request to foreign governments to permit travel or temporary residence in their territories and access to all lawful, local aid and protection. It also allows bearers access to U.S. consular services and assistance while abroad and re-entry into the U.S. Within Department of State's Bureau of Consular Affairs, the Passport Services Directorate serves U.S. citizens intending international travel through passport issuance and protects the integrity of the U.S. passport as proof of U.S. citizenship at home and around the world.

US Gov Tax
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) handles taxes in the United States. The IRS is a bureau of the Department of the Treasury and one of the world's most efficient tax administrators. The IRS provides American taxpayers with top quality service by helping them understand and meet their tax responsibilities by applying the tax law with fairness and integrity. In the United States, the Congress passes tax laws and requires taxpayers to comply. The role of the taxpayer is to understand and meet their tax obligations. The role of the IRS is to help the majority of the compliant taxpayers with the tax law and to make sure that the minority that do not comply, pay their fair share.
