Guide 3999 states:
But the actual form 5669 states in the directions for that question:Indicate the names of all membership or association with organizations you are or were a member of, including:
political organizations,
social organizations,
youth or student organizations,
trade unions, and
professional organizations.
If you were not a member of an association or organization, do not write “not applicable”. Rather, write: “I have never been a member of an organization or association”.
Which is correct?Write "NONE" in the box if you have not been a member of any association/organization.
