That is the WORST solution. You can't expect employers to be the cops for the INS. You are expecting for employers hiring minimum wage help to do a background investigation on these people, which would have a prohibitive cost.

Acutally I disagree here, you could provide it for free. Just provide instant checks on Social Security numbers. All you need is web page and a database.

Uh huh. People are catching on to the real way to have employers verify legal workers, or suffer fines and penalties. Just have them verify on line via a Social Security Administration database of REAL SS numbers. INS has to catch up with the internet revolution!

As of now the Social Security Administration does not share information with the INS. This must change. This is hardly genius work to set up an on line database of all 250 million SS numbers
