President Obama and Donald Trump see immigration differently. The Presidents aggressive executive action on immigration is still being litigated, and Mr. Trump proposes action of a different kind. In the meantime, tax credits and refunds for illegal immigrants have become controversial. Mr. Trump says illegal immigrants get $4.2 billion in tax credits. He can point to a 2011 audit by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. It confirms that individuals who are not authorized to work in the United States were paid $4.2 billion in refundable credits.

Seems that most all the other candidates are idiots for not bringing this up and saying they’ll do something about it. No, idiots like Yeb! think we WANT to give the fruits of our labor to the invaders.
So let me get this straight. Illegal individuals (aliens, people, etc.) are working in our country, do not have a valid social security numbers, and yet are entitled to refunds? Why are these individuals not in jail for tax fraud? Yet those who pay their taxes with a valid Social Security number are the main culprits for whatever crime the IRS sees fit to accuse them of?
So is the world upside down or do we have a government that is corrupt and illegal? Four cents on the dollar for a tea party on Boston Harbor, and now we have this? God help us!!!!!!!! Wake up people, please.
Trump easily has 14 months of retarded gov’t spending for ammo to keep the LSM tied up in knots.
Outrageous, but not surprising. These agencies need to be purged.
Trump easily has 14 months worth of retarded gov’t spending examples to use as ammo to keep the LSM tied up in knots.
Incredible. I can’t believe even FOX is shilling so hard. I guess they have adopted Pelosi economics. She said every dollar given to welfare recipients was worth almost a dollar and a half to the economy. Since ~70% of illegals are on some form of gov benefits, FOX is taking the total, adding half again as much to it, and crediting illegals with injecting that much cash into the economy.
Yep Trump has a very long time and a very large target environment to keep on hammering,
And they probably send most of the money back to Mexico. Still think Trump’s not conservative enough?!?
We are the laughing stock of the world
Not really.. the UK, Germany , France, Holland, Denmark, Spain and more DO the same thing..
Only decent immigration is in Russia and China...
THEY KILL the ones they don’t want..
If we killed all the IRS money to illegals and the welfare handouts to illegals, we could fund SS with no problems...
...... Wouldn't that make those payments Illegal?
‘So let me get this straight. Illegal individuals (aliens, people, etc.) are working in our country, do not have a valid social security numbers, and yet are entitled to refunds? Why are these individuals not in jail for tax fraud?’
Why isn’t congress in jail for setting up a system in which this is legal? Can you imagine how much antacids Boehner and McConnell are going to need, as Trump continues to educate the country re congress’ sellout perfidy?
I know that Trump has some serious security , however , I am extremely concerned for his safety . He has made many enemies and we’re still over a year away from the election .
...OUR BILLION dollars taken away from hardworking Americans and given to friggin, freeloading foreigners. HAD ENOUGH YET?!...
Apparently not...
Isn’t that the greatest thing you have heard? Why should our money be handed out to illegal aliens? You can’t get there with a good brain.
Laughing at us all the way to a bank in Mexico. Years ago, the second largest Mexican GNP was US money being sent back there. With gas down, it’s certainly moving to closer to #1.
Thank you. I do not know why. You missed the most important point: four cents on the dollar. That was the reason we fought a war, now where are we? Another is yet to fulminate.
My favorite part:
These applications for ITINs coming from the same address, thousands of applications or thousands of returns coming from the same address that screams fraud, said former federal prosecutor Clay Wheeler, who specializes in tax fraud cases and currently works for Kilpatrick, Townsend and Stockton law firm in Raleigh. It looks to me like the ITIN system has a lot of holes in it that need to be fixed You can't help but be angry about that kind of fraud.
A chart in the Treasury Inspector Generals July 2011 report shows a rapid rise in tax refunds that went to ITIN holders, who were four times more likely to request the child tax refund compared with those with Social Security numbers. In five years, those refunds quadrupled. Despite that, the IRS didnt budge and said it planned to keep paying until Congress tells it to stop.

Sorry, posted it to myself.
I believe the IRS has ruled that they are ENTITLED to those refunds under current US law and IRS regulations.
