 So could these tanru be now turned into lujvo?  Something like
{flaxa'u} for legal resident, and {flaselgu'e} for citizen?

Yes, those are valid lujvo. I can understand the difference between
{xabju}, the relationship between a person and the place where the
person actually lives, and {flaxa'u}, the abstract relationship between
a person and the place where some law says they live, which may
or may not be where they actually live.

But in the case of {selgu'e}, I'm not sure what {flalu} adds: what territory
belongs to what country and what person belongs to what country are
legal conventions to begin with.
