But what about people from countries other than the US that are are not sanctioned by OFAC? "further you agree you're not a non-resident alien of the United States"
Going by this [1] definition of nonresident alien, I am not a citizen of the USA so I'm an alien, and I don't live in the USA so I'm a non-resident alien.

- lallysingh 7y agoThe IRS is only writing its definitions for the sake of people in the US. That's presumed from context. Otherwise, why care what the IRS has to say?
- EdTsft 7y agoBecause Stellar is using that term in a document they're asking me to agree to and it seems likely that their intended meaning is similar to the IRS definition. But I'm not 100% sure that it's meant to exclude (almost) all non-Americans which is why I'm asking.
- sp332 7y agoThis is incorrect. If you're not in the USA, you're not a "non-resident alien", you just don't live here at all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_(law)#Categories https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_(law)#Categories
