To help you more:

This is from IRS, “U.S. Tax Guide What’s New for 2009 Aliens” Chapter 2, page 11

“A resident alien’s income is generally subject to
tax in the same manner as a U.S. citizen. If you
are a resident alien, you must report all interest,
dividends, wages, or other compensation for
services, income from rental property or royal-
ties, and other types of income on your U.S. tax
return. You must report these amounts whether
from sources within or outside the United States.”

You really need to be doing YOUR OWN research before you spew.

Been there, done that. I was just curious where you got your information.

I suggest the next time before you accuse some one of being malicious, uninformed, and a shill for DU, you get tax information from a better source than wickipedia (a website that routinely scrubs info that is unfavorable to or questioning of Zero), shills for globalism & guest workers, and blogs. You might also look further into the intricacies of IRS and its definitions regarding guest workers. It would also be a good idea to look up projection.

I gave you a lot more then wikipedia if you cared to look. And I am still waiting for your source of information (In fact We know very well where YOU get your info from). And you have been asked for detailed facts by more then one poster on this very thread. For now I have very good reason for accusing you of being being malicious and uninformed. So thanks but I have no use for your suggestion.

Your assertion:

“L-1’s who were rapidly our pacing H-1B’s in number over that last several years, PAY NO TAXES PERIOD.”

Has been proven to be an outright lie.

Another of your outright lie:
“125,000+ new LEGAL workers are coming into the country each month!”

The current cap for H1-B is 66,000 (plus another 20,000 from F1 visa transfers) FOR A SINGLE YEAR 2008

Here is a suggestion TO YOU. DO NOT post BS about subjects you know nothing about. DU BS wont get you too far.

125,000 workers imported per month:



# H-1B's = 130,183.
Total number of workers = between 1,443,265 and 1,595,605.
Divide by 12 = between 120,000 and 133,000 per month.

FYI in 2005 there were 7,572 H-1B's approved from eFiled LCA's and 306,929 approved from faxed LCA's. Data from files downloaded from Foreign Labor Certification Data Center.

I could go on, but I've places to go and things to do.
