Do Illegal Aliens Pay Taxes?
Do Illegal Aliens Pay Taxes when they work?
Depending if they are using a fake identity or being paid under the table they are paying for not being citizens. If they are using another person's identity, they are having money taken out of their paychecks just like everyone else. The money taken out for social security won't go to them in the future though, and they wont get money back that others would for doing taxes. If the person is being paid under the table or is undocumented, they are getting paid less most of the time and are mistreated a lot of the time. Many of these workers are too scared to tell authorities when they are ripped off or when they are mistreated by employers.
Besides that, they pay taxes when buying items at the store and won't be able to write those things off on their taxes like legal citizens.
