I think I will watch any movie, believe any movie, I desire to. Take your autocrat attitude to someone else.
ITINs are issued regardless of immigration status because both resident and nonresident aliens may have a U.S. filing or reporting requirement under the Internal Revenue Code.

So then illegal aliens don't need a work permit then and don't need anything else? Yes i did make a mistake by addressing ITINS only, but last i checked you do need a work permit or social security, and illegal immigrants do not get those unless they are stolen.

They might not need them in sanctuary cities, but I'm not sure. Maybe the ITIN is enough and all I'm saying is that it seems like the government is providing the means which puts in question the illegality of people in that type of situation.

An ITIN does not:
• Authorize work in the U.S.
• Provide eligibility for Social Security benefits
• Qualify a dependent for Earned Income Tax Credit Purposes

You don't need a U.S. Social Security number to work in the U.S. You only need it for employment. But, you can work as a self-employed contractor, for hire, say loading bricks onto a truck for some building project, and get paid by the hour, without any social security number being required. Since you're self-employed, your employer is you yourself, and so you'd show your social security number to yourself, to get that work. It's up to you as employer, to verify that SSN is correct, and that you have the right to work. So, unless you turn yourself in, or fire yourself for not having the appropriate SSN, you can still keep working.
Look at it this way, when last did you call a self-contractor plumber or electrician, to come fix something in your home, and required that contractor to show you his SSN, before you paid him?
Do Independent Contractors Have to Pay Social Security Tax?
January 11, 2011
By: Karen Farnen
Independent contractors pay Social Security and Medicare taxes as self-employment taxes. If you meet income thresholds, these taxes apply to any earnings you receive for self-employment, such as for tutoring or baby-sitting. To pay, you must file special paperwork with your annual federal income tax forms. In many cases you'll also have to make estimated payments during the year.

You are not sure?... Then you shouldn't be making assumptions and perhaps you should learn "to get your facts straight"... ITINS do not authorize anyone to work in the U.S...

I never said they did. I said that they are not asked for them in sanctuary cities and that in that situation an ITIN is enough. The only fact that I offered is that they are given regardless of immigration status and that was straight as an arrow.

The ITIN is enough if the other requirements are being ignored. Not my fault that you have trouble figuring out what is actually being said.

I understand it but there is a loophole, it doesn't require identity theft and the federal government is making it possible. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
