I got a passport as a state Citizen. Here's the way to do it: a. as stated, show your SS# as all 0's. Where it says "country", enter your state, e.g., California. Certain words have meanings of commercial activity now under the redefining of common words by our beloved leaders, so cross out these words, and substitute the word that follows; date of birth -> "nativity" address -> "location" For ID, they want SS#s, or military cards, Calif ID, etc. If you have sent this stuff back, get birth certs, parents birth certs, school diplomas, marriage certs. It is good to bring a US citizen with you who will state he has known you some years. Use the brown form. Do NOT do as I did, namely mention that you are a "state Citizen"....they froze up, called the manager, who stormed over with a guard and asked me to leave! Maybe they think we're gun toting revollutionarires. You will be asked for a zip code onthe form, so put one down, maybe alter it to read postal code. Otherwise the process stops there. Finally, you get a lovely passport with the seals of the states on the pages, not US eagles. BTW, ask for a certified copy of your application, and don't forget to take it. They photocopied one for me , and then kept it. You can always get a copy from the Dept of State, you must send $10, and notarized request stating why you want it, when you applied, etc. You want this as proof that they accepted you with the statement that your country is California, not DC, or U USA. Good Luck.
