If these migrants are willing to be illegally undocumented they are also willing to evade taxation.

The left imagines all these poor illegals hunkered down doing their taxes. They’re Americans, just like you and me after all.

You forgot to mention that they were purposely allowed across our border to become new voters for the DemonKKK Party. I might also add, that they will be permanent voters that will keep the DemonKKKrats in power for decades. This is why they are mounting a case where we will need to litigate each illegal person we want to deport. Can you imagine the costs for that one?

"The ones who pay their taxes are the ones we should want."

Not if each one of these are guaranteed DemonKKKrat voters. And I guarantee they will be DemonKKKrat voters bought by the DemonKKKrat Party with our tax money.

We need to see the big picture.

As opposed to the hundreds of billions spent on them to educate, feed and treat them for FREE.

Oh, yeah, like illegals pay taxes; more likely file earned income returns.

“Where did he get the SSN from to file his taxes?”

That was my first question also but he could use an ITIN. These are issued by the IRS for tax filing only. Now my question is which number did he use to file? If it was a SSID, where/when did he get it?

As for sweating deportation, good. An ITIN does not confer citizenship.

Re: "A 10% decrease in the number of undocumented immigrants filing their taxes would mean a decrease of $9.5 billion a year in tax revenue."

On the other hand...

It will also result in an instant $25 billion budget savings from fraudulent Earned Income Tax Credits and Medicaid.

8.5 billion out of a multi trillion dollars of taxes, and how much do these “immigrants “ cost the American tax payers?

And don’t forget the most important talking points who will

BS Many put 40 dependents on their w-4s and never have a dime withheld so they have no need to file

How are these illegals filing taxes if they legally can’t get a job?

$10B a year loss? That’s insignificant at best considering the fraud waste and abuse being saved. Subtract $10B from that and it’s still a large positive win.

"The ones who pay their taxes are the ones we should want."

Most illegals only "pay" taxes for the child income tax credit and other welfare. They are almost all a net negative. Don't be fooled by leftist propaganda.
