No criminal background check is required before applying for a TIN, which many banks now accept from illegal alien customers as a primary form of identification.If banks are going to accept TIN's from illegal aliens as a primary form of identification, then I would think that banks would be required to accept TIN's from American citizens too, or risk being sued for discrimination.

A 25-year veteran of the mortgage industry in California confided to me recently: "It boggles the mind to think how many illegal aliens are homeowners in this country thanks to these programs, all fully insured by our government. Because of fear of lawsuits for discrimination I can also tell you that a lender may have a borrower who speaks little or no English who claims to be either a citizen or resident alien and it will not be questioned nor any proof required. Since FHA does not require any such documentation, a lender cannot cite their regulations as a basis for the request as they can on conventional loans." Ever get the feeling that Our Government NO LONGER Represents the American Citizen?

Ever get the feeling that Our Government NO LONGER Represents the American Citizen? In a word, yes. Don't look for the situation to improve in our lifetime, unfortunately. This garbage just ain't going away.

Law abiding citizens are suckers. Citizenship is meaningless. That is the message in all of this.

Moneylenders have no access to a verification system to check Social Security numbers before approving loans. A Department of Homeland Security investigator informs me that an ongoing federal probe of FHA/HUD-backed loans found that "a staggering number were approved to persons with false Social Security numbers." The Denver metro area alone accounted for 20,000 to 40,000 of the FHA-approved loans for suspected illegal aliens. "Even if a small percentage of the loans were foreclosed, HUD could be bankrupted," the homeland security official said.Really? When I bought my first home last year, my SSN was required and they showed me a printout of my credit rating. Credit check and itemized assets were required. What do they do, pretend to check? That would have saved me a lot of trouble if I'd known that. Is the lovely Ms. Malkin telling me such checks aren't required for illegals?
Something really stinks here, and I'm not sure if it's this article, or the system.

The Denver metro area alone accounted for 20,000 to 40,000 of the FHA-approved loans for suspected illegal aliens. "Even if a small percentage of the loans were foreclosed, HUD could be bankrupted," the homeland security official said. This is absolutely incredible. Is this a mea culpa? HUD and the FEDS obviously knew that staggering numbers of Illegal Aliens were getting GOVERNMENT BACKED loans to buy homes because they REMOVED any Lawful Standard that would prohibit such aliens to apply for the loans. NOW they seem worried about what could happen if HEAVEN FORBID the Laws of this Land were actually Enforced on Illegal Aliens. The message seems to be we can't do anything about it because HUD would go broke.
This has all the components of High Treason. What is the end game--Amnesty for Illegal Aliens? Any high up Bush Cabinet official going to lose their job over this? Unfreaking believable.
"I don't think the federal government is willing to expose this problem for financial reasons as well as for fear of political repercussions."
Too Late, It's already out in the open. Let the heads roll.

It is a federal crime to put false info on a loan application in which the federal government is involved. If you know an illegal alien who did this and a mortgage broker who helped, it is time to do something about it.

"Let the heads roll." You're kidding, right?
Bush and his whole administration are complicit!
Do you believe Bush considers malfeasance like this, in respect to illegal aliens, anything but a job well done?
Bush nominated a Cuban banker to replace an open borders advocating, pro-illegal immigration, Libertarian, puke like Ziglar, because he wanted to stop illegal immigration?
It'll be promotions, raises, bonuses and extra perks all around!
They won't be yelling "Let the heads roll." in the White House.
Karl Rove tells Bush these illegals are future RINOs, so it must be worth risking the financial futures of tax paying American citizens to buy them homes.
Bush and friends will be yelling:
"Let the good times roll!"

Yep. Get a matric card and TIN and use a second identity to avoid tax hassles.

This story is true. I know for a fact that an illegal used a TIN to secure her house. She did have credit on that TIN that she had built up over several years.

ShuShu, I hope you don't mind the 'Ping'. This is your area of expertise. FlyVet wants to know if it's Michelle's article that
"stinks", or the system that
"stinks". Maybe you could tell FlyVet and others about some of your observations and experiences over the years.
He doesn't believe this could be happening. I'll bet he's not alone in his disbelief. ;^)

HUD has slipped three illegal families onto my block. One of them is a foreman for a landscaping company. They in turn are using their home to slip more illegals into the country.
