    You can register or get from others . So far , it is not the problem for me . but it is against the policy of .us domain .
    Only the US resident can register or you must have business contract at US.

    does this .us domain make any difference to SEOs?

    To paraphrase Jerry Seinfeld in his rental-car agency episode "Anyone can take a reservation - the trick is to hold the reservation".

    Anyone can register a .US (no proof required). The trick is to hold it if they do an audit and ask for documents proving your eligibility.
