They are suppose to but every foreign employee that works for my husband claims 10 dependents. Some have no kids or 1 or 2 kids. 10 dependents allow for no taxes to be paid, if they get audited they are working under fake name so they change their name to another fake name. He has cut his number from 26 to 1 of illegals & 2 legal with real green card.

For tax purposes, an alien is an individual who is not a U.S. citizen. Aliens are classified as nonresident aliens and resident aliens. IRS Publication 519 will help you determine your status and give you information you will need to file your U.S. tax return. Resident aliens generally are taxed on their worldwide income, the same as U.S. citizens. Nonresident aliens are taxed only on their income from sources within the United States and on certain income connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

By law, yes. Tax is based on 1) source of income (the US) and 2) residency while making income (the US).
Check out IRS.gov

Once you get a green card, you automatically become a U.S. tax resident and you must declare your entire income to the U.S. government.
