How can an "undocumented" worker be paid in "legal tender" or with a "check" for that matter?

Question

Also how is it exactly a bank can issue"credit" to them? Kind of really begins to also answer the question of what the real reason was behind the huge push for "amnesty". THINK!!!!!!

To B.: If i tried cashing a check here locally with an establishment i don't have an account set up with. they would "always" ask me for ID and my thumbprint on the check.(as well as signature of course).

If i were to ever hire (i wouldn't)undocumented workers to do work. Would it make more sense just to pay them in silver and/or gold? Thus it would be their responsibility after that point to figure out how to transfer it into "legal tender" legally. i know it sounds completely strange. All i ask is keep an open mind about this and really "think" about it. If anything they have opened some ppl's eyes. For that i thank them.

I doub't very seriously they even realized, nor did we how much they really should have open the common American citizen's eyes. however the very minute they accepted "legal tender" for services they rendered, they became "illegal" workers.

PEOPLE why do you think the real reason was the bank's(that did this) lobbied SO HARD for amnesty? Because they know if the American People found this out they were SCREWED!!!!!!!

It should also begin to explain why business's that don't use undocumented workers and actually have followed the legal system as it stands have suffered such severe damages. And any business that accepts "legal tender" from undocumented(illegal if they have legal tender in their possession) have also just commited an illegal act.

This FACT also gives our police departments the right to arrest these "undocumented individuals" if they have "Legal tender" and/or "credit cards" in their possession at the time of apprehension.

If 287(g) doesn't pass. Doesn't matter.

Or accept "legal tender" as payment for services rendered infobrokenate. Might want to add that to your list. The other items are meaningless if they are being paid under the table in the form of "legal tender".

COME ON!!!!! Please somebody debate me on this issue. Tell me i'm wrong if i in fact am. Rebut what i said to validate your side.

There will be those that argue the fourteenth amendment of the U.S. constitution. I absolutely agree with that, we shouldn't be able to deny them Life Liberty or the Pursuit of Happiness. And i am not even remotely suggesting taking any of these listed items away from them, because they are in fact FREE. Think about it ppl.

I totally agree with you Jessica Rabbit. ABSOLUTELY NO AMNESTY!!!

Pinkeye: Ithink that would possibly involve the Privacy Act of 1974. Not having to disclose a common numerical identifier. and the other side not being able to deny those individuals the same services granted to everyone else that does disclose a common numerical identifier. Wonder if the banks would try and argue this as well? if they do then what exactly would be the need for "credit" reporting agencies? Hmm.

Since of course that information is stored in accordance with a common numerical identifier.

i firmly believe that any properly documented(i.e incorporated) US citizen is highly exposed to personal corporate damage because of the very reasons as explained above. Our personal corporate status(i.e Legal) is in fact our weakest link in this system of things. Strange though it may sound, but think about it.

Answer 1

They don't seem to have much trouble with it. They /do/ get paid, and they do use financial service companies to remit some of that money to thier families back home, quite consistently.

I mean, when was the last time someone demanded proof of citizenship when you cashed a check?

Answer 2

There isn't much debate to be had. Certain people and institutions are going to help them out.
Bush is one of their biggest supporters. He won't enforce the laws on the books for border control unless we pass the amnesty bill.
There are a few faces I am surprised that I have not seen on this question. Maybe later they will show up.

Legal tender just means that it is legal to use to pay for services and goods in this country, and you can even get hold of foreign currency at banks. It says nowhere on our money that you have to be a legal citizen to use it, or receive it.
How do they cash a check? Always a legal around that they can get to deposit their checks in the "old days". Now they have those handy check cashing places that say you don't need ID to cash a check.
Workers that work under the table, they get paid in legal tender that they can spend or wire back across the border. Those who have a job with a printed paycheck also have forged/illegal documents made to look just like valid ones. That same ID will get the check cashed at the bank it was drawn on.
Was that the reason for amnesty? Bush wants us to become one great big country, from south of the border and including Canada. So, Mexico is going to be just one more state when he gets done.
Who knew one little dictator could wreak so much havoc in such a short time?

Answer 3

I am not sure how they do it but I know they get paid and most of the time the person who hires them takes them to the bank to cash checks or pays them in cash. They also will move into workers quarters on the farm or property of the hirer, and this saves them lots of money that they can send home because they are not out rent, they don;t pay taxes on anything they really have it made. And I am not sure how they do it but I have known of some illegals that got food stamps for their kids, and a medical card. To me it is insane.

Answer 4

Some large companies write off what they pay illegal aliens as "recruitment expenses." They launder money and lie on their tax forms to cover what they pay them.
Our bank had to verify our marital status for a joint account.Ok, no problem. Banks should have to verify legal status as well. It really bothers me that people who profit from it provide services and jobs to illegal aliens. I'd rather more for groceries. It wouldn't some CEO's to take home a little smaller paycheck and pay Americans a decent wage, rather than break laws and patronize illegals.

Answer 5

The bank can't do much for them, unfortunately, because they all have ridiculous policies about even allowing a decent human being to simply cash a check. If you are paying "undocumented" workers, the best way to do so is in cash. You need to find a legal way to route the money through your business books, though, because even if the IRS can't come after that person, they can certainly come after you. Be very careful. We once had a maid who was an illegal, and we paid her in cash. She got deported for other reasons, but we were very careful to claim the money that we paid her as outflow so that we were covered, regardless.

Answer 6

Please stop calling them "undocumented" workers! They are illegal alien CRIMINALS. They are breaking our laws!

Undocumented sounds like they are doing nothing wrong. They only misplaced a piece of paper. Excuse me but they never got that piece of paper to be here!

Answer 7

To work in this country, an illegal alien must:

-forge work documents
-committ identity theft
-break immigration laws
