Under President Obama's new program to protect millions of illegal immigrants from deportation, many of those affected will be eligible to receive Social Security, Medicare and a wide array of other federal benefits, a White House official confirmed.
In his speech on Thursday night, the president touted his plan as a means of bringing accountability to a broken system.
"Were going to offer the following deal: If youve with been in America more than five years. If you have children who are American citizens or [legal] residents. If you register, pass a criminal background check and youre willing to pay your fair share of taxes, youll be able to apply to stay in this country temporarily without fear of deportation," he said. "You can come out of the shadows and get right with the law."
For those who work, that includes payroll taxes, also known as FICA taxes, because they are collected under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act. They are usually split between employer and employee and include 12.4 percent collected to pay for Social Security, as well as 2.9 percent to pay for Medicare.
Current federal law holds that people who pay those taxes and are deemed "lawfully present" in the United States can collect benefits under those programs when they become eligible. They may also receive survivors and disability benefits.

Good thing were not 18 trillion in debt.
Please go to the comments section and if you can, “Like” this leading comment. (Not mine.) It’s awesome. If it stays at the top, thousands of libtards will spew their lattes on their keyboards.
“You lying, pathetic, leftist propagandist press corps. Tell the whole story, just once, please. The American people deserve to know. Don’t you care anything about your children’s future, or your own personal integrity? ILLEGALS have been accessing and ripping off all these federal entitlement programs for years! Illegals can’t get food stamps? Utter BS! Our government advertises these handouts in Mexico! Illegals can’t get obamacare? Total BS! How can you even print those words knowing the truth is easily accessible by every single American with an internet connection? You’re lying, you know you’re lying, we know you’re lying. Anyone who cares to do the most simple, basic, internet search can find the honest facts about these entitlement sucking illegal alien handouts and fraud. Like the $6 billion in fraudulent and illegal payouts to illegal aliens through the earned income tax credit, that once confronted the IRS boldly proclaimed- “nope, sorry, can’t fix that”. EVERY, SINGLE, taxpayer funded entitlement handout EVER offered by any government agency, has been illegaly ripped off by the illegal foreigners FOREVER, and all with a wink and a nod from the progressive dominated bureaucracies who know full well their actions are illegal. All Obamas order does is serve to swell the ranks of illegals who are willing to access these programs. Specifically those that chose not to in the past because of the perceived risk in doing so. To conclude, I notice you chose not to include the number from the most recent study about what these illegals will cost taxpayers. Which is odd since you love and champion any study, no matter how absurd or convoluted, when it helps the leftist meme. So here it is- $2 TRILLION!!! $2 trillion of hard working Americans tax dollars to pay off an support Obamas illegal alien invaders. While our own citizens Medicare, social security, unemployment, and other benefits get cut. That’s not just unconstitutional. It’s criminal. It’s treasonous.”
Not surprised.
This summer there was a lot of problems for people like me that have food stamps, medicaid and other assistance. A lot of us got cancelled or delayed because of the huge influx of illegals. Several other states had the same issues and not a surprise but they were over run by the illegals.
It was like they wanted to make sure all these people got benefits while we got the run around.
I kept having to fill out more paperwork every time I went in, had to wait for a phone call to do an interview which they didn’t tell me to expect and then when they did call it didn’t go through and I had to set up an appointment myself which took another week or two.
A few weeks later after I got it taken care of I got a letter saying I had been incorrectly removed.
Just hope the paper work I sent out today to STL gets there. For some reason I am no longer at the local office.
