What goes in Box 9b of the ATF 5320.23 if you Weren't Born in the United States?

On the ATF 5320.23, ATF Form 1, ATF Form 4, and ATF Form 5 you will need to indicate your state of birth and country of birth.  Specific boxes for each form are shown below.  These boxes are straightforward if you were born in the United States. But if you weren't born in the United States, what do you put in the state of birth box?  In the event the applicant wasn't born in the United States, you can simply leave this box blank.  We have included an example below that was taken from the ATF 5320.23.  The ATF Form 1, ATF Form 4, and the ATF Form 5 will look the same, but the box numbers will be different. 

  • ATF 5320.23 - Box 9b
  • ATF Form 1 - Box 15b.
  • ATF Form 4 and ATF From 5 - Box 18b.
