July 4 1776 is what many people think, but we actually officially became independent on July 8 1776. Many people thought that the 8th should be Independence Day, as I do.
I would add that the Continental Congress declaredindependence from Great Britain in 1776. The American Colonies were a huge source of revenue to Britain, and they weren't about to let an asset like that slip through their grasp. So, the Colonies would have to fight for their independence against one of the strongest armies in the world (no easy task, mind you). It wasn't until September 3rd, 1783 when the Treaty of Paris was signed by Britain and the United States that independence was acknolwledged. So, maybe we ought to write Congress and petition for September 3rd to be acknowledged as our trueIndependence Day? Just a thought. I don't think it'd happen anyhow as we already have the 4th of July set aside and it would confuse many folks.

While several Latin American countries had achieved independence by then, most were still grappling with political instability and the aftermath of colonial rule. Thus, the U.S. stood out as the sole established independent nation in that context.
