now. How can I register with the US government as a First Nations person?

A: There's only one Mi'kmaq band in the Unites States,
the Aroostook Band of Micmacs. Here's their membership
page: http://www.micmac-nsn.gov/html/membership.html.
It looks like you can't just transfer your tribal
membership, but it's possible for a Mi'kmaq person to
belong to both the US band and a Canadian band, if
there's any ancestry in common.
Also, here's a website from a Wabanaki organization on
the Jay Treaty, which should apply to you:

Hope that helps!
