Her family’s belongings are already packed into boxes and stacked inside the two-bedroom apartment where she lives - for now - with her husband and daughter.
Soon, the 57-year-old Roswell resident said, they could be homeless.
**SNIP**
The woman, who doesn’t speak English fluently, is from Mexico. She requested anonymity because she lacks legal status to be in this country. Since losing her job during the pandemic, she’s gotten financial help from a church and a grant from the Latin American Association of Atlanta (LAA), but the aid hasn’t been nearly enough to cover all the rent her family owes.
**SNIP**
“I haven’t been able to sleep knowing I might get kicked out,” said the Roswell woman, adding that she doesn’t know where her family will go. “This is difficult. It’s the destruction of a family, of a home, and nobody cares.”
**SNIP**
State Rep. Alan Powell, R-Hartwell, said he does not believe that any type of federal assistance is warranted.
“The first word is ‘illegal,’” he said. “If they are here without documentation, then they shouldn’t be here.”
**SNIP**
The couple now owes nearly $8,000 in back rent. The woman said she and her husband have gone entire days in the past year without eating. Their 16-year-old daughter, an honors student, has grown increasingly anxious about their living situation.

There it is.
Please provide a list of 3 things you've contributed to American society--do not include 'provided cheap labor to corrupt members of the local chamber of commerce.'
Are women illegal aliens hardest hit even more?
So who's SSN has she been using and why hasn't the IRS caught this at some point?

If you are here in America illegally then yu should be thrown the hell out.
Starting your stay here in any illegal fashion then you are a criminal and should be treated as such.
But paying taxes is not the point...illegal entry is the point.
If they don't bother to learn their "rights" prior to illegally entering the country, I wonder why they all decide to illegally enter the USA? Why not Venezuela or Cuba?
She lives in a very pricey part of the metro
You learn something new everyday... An illegal alien can file their taxes with an ITIN. Seriously. What a joke.
Excellent point.
“One of the boxes that lines the walls of her home contains copies of her many tax returns, she said.”

I’d be willing to bet dollars to doughnuts they’ve received MORE in tax returns than they ever paid in. Leeches.
“The couple now owes nearly $8,000 in back rent.”
I’ll bet this isn’t the first landlord they’ve stiffed out of thousands of dollars. No SSN so it’s hard to track them down.

Yes, 1.5 more years and they don’t get the child tax credit anymore.

“The Roswell resident said she has been a taxpayer since she first moved to the U.S. and began working 25 years ago.”
Been here 25 years and still doesn’t speak the English language fluently? Truly they’re not sending their best.
“unauthorized (illegal) immigrants (aliens)”
The correct term these days is “People experiencing unauthorized immigration”
GTFO! These parasites have been sucking us dry for years. We have over 400,000 illegals in GA and they use the ER like the doctors office and they all manage to get snap cards or WIC.
I don’t call these people human garbage for nothing.
For 25 years this criminal has been thumbing her nose at the system and getting way with it. Tough s**t senora, get out of my country.
Indeed and employers are 50% of the problem for hiring them.
Been seeing the same thing in NJ for years.
No she stole someones identity to work here.
Good point 47% of income tax filers pay no income tax. By her own admission she’s a criminal.
