2007 Federal Sentencing GuidelinesCHAPTER 2 - PART B - BASIC ECONOMIC OFFENSES1. THEFT, EMBEZZLEMENT, RECEIPT OF STOLEN PROPERTY, PROPERTY
DESTRUCTION, AND OFFENSES INVOLVING FRAUD OR DECEIT§2B1.6. Aggravated Identity Theft (a) If the defendant was convicted of violating 18 U.S.C. § 1028A, the guideline sentence is the
term of imprisonment required by statute. Chapters Three (Adjustments) and Four (Criminal History
and Criminal Livelihood) shall not apply to that count of conviction.CommentaryStatutory Provision: 18 U.S.C. § 1028A. For additional statutory provision(s), see Appendix A
(A) In General.—Section 1028A of title 18, United State Code, provides a mandatory term of
imprisonment. Accordingly, the guideline sentence for a defendant convicted under 18 U.S.C. §
1028A is the term required by that statute. Except as provided in subdivision (B), 18 U.S.C. §
1028A also requires a term of imprisonment imposed under this section to run consecutively to
any other term of imprisonment.
(B) Multiple Convictions Under Section 1028A.—Section 1028A(b)(4) of title 18, United State
Code, provides that in the case of multiple convictions under 18 U.S.C. § 1028A, the terms of
imprisonment imposed on such counts may, in the discretion of the court, run concurrently, in
whole or in part, with each other. See the Commentary to §5G1.2 (Sentencing on Multiple Counts
of Conviction) for guidance regarding imposition of sentence on multiple counts of 18 U.S.C.
§ 1028A.
conjunction with a sentence for an underlying offense, do not apply any specific offense
characteristic for the transfer, possession, or use of a means of identification when determining
the sentence for the underlying offense. A sentence under this guideline accounts for this factor
for the underlying offense of conviction, including any such enhancement that would apply based
on conduct for which the defendant is accountable under §1B1.3 (Relevant Conduct). "Means of
identification" has the meaning given that term in 18 U.S.C. § 1028(d)(7).
3. Inapplicability of Chapters Three and Four.—Do not apply Chapters Three (Adjustments) and
Four (Criminal History and Criminal Livelihood) to any offense sentenced under this guideline. Such offenses are excluded from application of those chapters because the guideline sentence for
each offense is determined only by the relevant statute. See §§3D1.1 (Procedure for Determining
Offense Level on Multiple Counts) and 5G1.2.
