Anyone who fills out a W-2 form has income taxes withheld. The only way to get back any overpaid taxes is to have a valid social security number and submit a tax return. Illegal immigrants who use fake social security numbers have taxes witheld from their paycheck, but they can't file a tax return because they don't have a legitimate SS#. So all the money they pay in becomes the government's.

People with green cards do pay income tax just like everyone else. The only folks who don't, would be illegal immigrants or folks working under the table. Don't feel jipped though. These people also will not be able to take advantage of any of our government programs, such as social security upon retirement, medicare for health coverage when old, etc......

If they have legitimate jobs, taxes are being withheld and they are expected to file their income tax forms every year.
It's the illegals who are not paying income taxes. They do not have legitimate social security numbers, so they don't pay taxes.

Immigrants with green cards pay taxes. It is immigrants legal or illegal, without green cards who do not pay taxes. They are not supposed to work, so if they paid taxes the government would catch them and deport them.

People with green cards pay tax.
People who work off the books don't. Nor are they covered for disability or unemployment.
