Brilliant!
However, many illegal aliens have regular wages because they got—illegally (there’s that word again!) a social security account number (SSAN)
I’ve actually had Leftists say to me that many illegal aliens use fake SSANs—they leave out they were stolen from someone else—and then get a job that gives them a salary with taxes taken out, since they now have an SSAN.
But—sob!—They are afraid to file for tax returns and the US Government STEALS that money. Oh the HUMMANITY!
They pay taxes, too, but lose them because of the “unfairness” of requiring a SSAN to work a job, and it’s too risky to file with stolen identities!
When I used to do payroll.....heh......
.......We had illegals in a hospital I used to work for.
They used to make up SS numbers and I’d get this notice from the IRS that the SS number of this person did not match his name.
I’d call his boss but it ended there.
There was no rule that the person get fired and as I saw it, so I kept paying and sent in the ss taxes withheld as required by law and I suppose it got posted to whoever had that SS number’s account.
The government provided no help at all in handling this illegal problem.
OMG...Bray, you post got moved to chat! Call me when the FBI gets there!
That’s illegal, it is a crime.
I will pray for you.
Actually, the illegals who commit identify theft to get on an American payroll will end up having FICA (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%) deducted from their paycheck whether they like it or not, but they can play with the W-4 to not have any income taxes deducted from the same paycheck, so they end up paying the 7.65% and have the employer match that 7.65%, but if they don't compound the identity theft and file an income tax return, they won't be able to claim any refund or credit such as Earned Income or Child ......
And if these illegals are not having federal income tax withheld because of how they filled out the federal return, what makes anybody think they are having state income taxes withheld?
Of course, I don't have answers to all of those questions, because I do not work for the federal government, so I do not possess the hubris needed to calculate exactly what I don't know to the 4th decimal place. Well, either a federal government employee, or a host on MSNBC.....
