the United States, in the office of the secretary of state;
(b) In all other cases, in the office of the clerk of the county where
the lienee, if a resident of the state, resides at the time of filing of
the notice of lien, except that if such lienee resides at such time in
the county of Kings, the county of Queens, the county of New York or the
county of Bronx, the place for filing such liens shall be in the office

such earlier date, as the case may be, such certificates or notices
shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the county within which the
town or city clerk's office, where the notice of lien was originally
filed, is located.
