IRS Abolishes Mandatory Expiration Dates For Illegal Immigrants’ Taxpayer Status

Another IRS scandal making its way to the top.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) quietly changed regulations to allow more undocumented immigrants to keep their taxpayer status through a program that is rife with fraud and abuse, and to delay deactivation of immigrant taxpayer status until 2016.

The IRS now prevents peoples’ Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) from automatically expiring after five years as previously mandated. Now immigrants can keep their ITIN so long as they pay taxes at least once in a five-year period. (RELATED: IRS Loophole For Illegals’ Children Costs Taxpayers Billions)

The ITIN program is primarily used by undocumented workers to follow the law and file income taxes in the United States. Reports came out during the IRS scandal linking ITIN fraud to billions in lost taxpayer dollars. The IRS was forced to reform the ITIN program at the start of 2013 – but this new regulation undoes that reform.

This must be part of the long-term illegal immigration plan.

The IRS seems to have a different set of rules for illegals.

They can actually file tax returns using these ITINs.

Is this an "oversight" loophole ?

Or part of a bigger fish agenda ?

We know legitimate businesses use these same ITINs.

Hmmm.

I think that you might be jumping the shark here.
As much as you might dislike the IRS,
Wouldn't it be better to collect the taxes owed?
Then you can ship them off to wherever!

Anyone against this is obviously racist and illegalphobic(pretty sure I just made up a word).

Why shouldn't they get what they're entitled to? It's for the damn children you heartless jerks!!!

What taxes ?

It might be more like "Child tax Credit" fraud.

Oh-so-Scrumptious

North Carolina is part of what federal investigators call a nationwide tax fraud scheme among suspected illegal immigrants. It’s a system auditors believe invites fraud and abuse topping more than $4 billion a year.

U.S. citizens’ Social Security numbers are used when processing tax returns. Illegal immigrants, or people in the U.S. on work visas, use an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, or ITIN.

Investigators: Child tax credit allows fraudsters a chance to cheat

Democrats ducked a debate last week about cutting off tax breaks to illegal immigrants, but Republicans vowed to keep raising the issue, saying that having the IRS pay out tax credits to those who shouldn’t be in the country in the first place is a form of fraud.

GOP to continue push on cutting off child tax credit for illegals

Filthy Cheaters !!

They should pay regardless of income, should get no tax credits whatsoever, and are welcome to return home if they do not like the rules.
