"well it's okay you're here illegally, but we draw the line at driving illegally. It should stop at "you're here illegally". Cuff him and book him Danno!!

"It should stop at "you're here illegally". Cuff him and book him Danno!!"I'll bump to that.
I did some research on the web on these taxpayer id numbers. I found a legal site that says they are supposedly for use by legal aliens working in the country, but are not PR's.
Then they go on to say:
"Foreign clients often ask their immigration lawyers: "How can I pay taxes when Im here illegally and cant get a social security card?" On the same basis, some employers who know they have hired an unauthorized alien who lacks a social security number (SSN) violate U.S. tax and other laws by paying off the books and failing to comply with the W-2 requirements. They may not realize that the Social Security Administration (SSA) will issue an individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) in this situation. And I liked this one too:
Generally, an alien may obtain an SSN in three instances: (1) the alien is a permanent resident or has a legal status permitting employment in the United States; (2) the alien lacks such status but has a valid nonwork purpose that requires an SSN; or (3) the alien resides in the United States, has no evidence of alien status, and needs the SSN by law as a condition for receiving a federally-funded benefit. In this last case the alien may receive an SSN limited to a nonwork purpose. 20 C.F.R. § 422.104(a).
