Dont they use those taxpayer IDs to pay taxes??, not SS #s?
Now that you mention SS, Obama’s idea has some merits.
They come out of shadows and ID themselves, they work and pay SS taxes (To) our parents and since they have zero rights to be here we can boot them out before they retire so they get nothing, a great way to fix entitlements. Just got to cut out those food stamps.
I believe unclaimed/uncollected social security payments attributable to an illegal alien of Mexican origin are remitted to the Mexican government.
Not according to the SSA
Social Security Number — Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals
• If the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) grants you Deferred Action status and employment authorization, you may be eligible for a Social Security number.
• After you receive your Employment Authorization Card (I-766) from USCIS, you can apply for a Social Security number.

Now I understand why the GOP is called the Stupid Party. First SS is a pay as you go system. Today's workers pay for today's retirees. SS has been running in the red since 2010 and will continue to do until around 2033 when benefits will have to be cut when the SSTF runs out of IOUs.
These mostly low pay workers will pay very little to offset the program's annual deficits. And they will be eligible for things like disability benefits and their spouses and children could get survivor benefits.
Good luck on kicking them out before they accrue 40 quarters worth of eligibility. In fact, you know and I know they will never be kicked out once legalized. They will grow old and collect SS benefits like everyone else thus adding to the unfunded liability of SS.
