Illegals that haven't worked can get tax refund

Illinois Congressman Luis Gutierrez told The Daily Caller Friday that he didn’t know that illegal immigrants are eligible for tax refunds — even if they haven’t paid taxes.

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen told members of Congress Wednesday that illegal immigrants who did not pay taxes will be able to claim back-refunds once they are issued social security numbers.

“I know nothing of the sort,” Gutierrez snapped at a Daily Caller reporter Friday when asked about Koskinen’s testimony.

“Of course it would be like you to raise that sort of question,” the Democrat continued. “Why don’t you ask the commissioner of the IRS?”

The commissioner, of course, had already been asked about it.

“Under the new program,” Koskinen told members of the House oversight committee Wednesday, “if you get a Social Security number and you work, you’ll be eligible to apply for the Earned Income Tax Credit.”

“You will get an amount depending on your situation,” Koskinen added. “If you are an individual working and applying for the Earned Income Tax Credit, the maximum you can get is in the range of 500 to 600 dollars.”

However, according to the IRS’ own website, a filer can receive a check up to $6,143 when they have “three or more qualifying children.”

Will they ever get to claim the social security they contribute?

Don't illegals pay under fake or stolen S S numbers? Many are paid in cash, avoiding taxes.

In a free society there are no passport or border checks, everyone is free to come and go as he pleases. Anyone can work doing anything he is capable of or can get hired to do, nobody is 'legal' or 'illegal'. Of course in a free society there are no government handouts(aka socialism) to anyone, whether 'legal' or 'illegal'. Everyone is self-supporting. Those who choose not to are free to migrate to 'friendlier' jurisdictias.
