Aliens can be legal and illegal. Both have to pay taxes. Typically there taxes are much lower than yours because they make less. Illegals can not collect the money they paid in. Legal aliens have the some of the same benefits as you but can not vote unless they become citizens. So much for the US promise of no taxation without representation. Also legal aliens can have there status removed by a congressional change and all that money is lost. Actually we should be thankful for aliens. Social Security makes a good portion of money from them and they'll never get a dime.

Word Aliens is referred to both legal and illegal immigrants. The legal immigrants do pay all type of taxes as any other American do, but illegal immigrants do not pay any tax. They might pay in someone else name. I lived in USA for 8 years and I have my social security statement. If I don't get permanent residency I will not get any benefit even I am 65. And many legal immigrants return to their home country without getting any benefit.
All US residents are immigrants some came over there 300 years ago and some came 1 day ago. The hate against any one will not make America strong. So just be happy and try your best to stay togather as a true American
Thanks

How can an illegal alien pay soc sec when they use a fake document or make up a number or steal someones id. Fraud among illegal aliens is at a all time high, these people will use whatever means they have to get everything they can all based on a lie. Pro illegal supports document fraud and believe illegal aliens have a right to a better life regardless of how it's obtained

Most illegals pay nothing in taxes other than sales tax. The reason is simple if they paid taxes the federal government would have a paper trail in which to find them. Most in fact don't pay auto registration nor do they have insurance on the cars they drive. They do not get drivers licenses either. For these reasons illegals are a menace to the rest of us. But then again they broke the law just to get here. Do you think they care about our other laws?

Some illegal immigrants do pay some social security but because they cant legally have a Social Security card ,they are paying on a card that is either forged ,stolen or bought on the black market from criminals.The reason they cant collect it is because its not in their real names.So that's the reason they cant get it,not fear.Some illegals can get a TIN # and pay regular taxes which they also cant collect on.
But most illegals work for cash here in the southwest.so they don't pay any taxes except the sales tax on what they buy.Most illegals do not pay any taxes or pay into Social Security.

True. However, even what they pay in that way is far, far less than what they TAKE in other ways. As well, they are committing yet ANOTHER crime when they use fake/fraudulent ID. Don't feel sorry for them for not getting their taxes back when they are using fake/fraudulent ID and are here illegally, in the first place.

What you heard is pretty much true But it sounds like your employer needs a visit from immigration & a big fine.

no, you have to have a social security number to pay any tax, except sales tax.
