Technically it is "up to" $15,600...  Still stupid as hell...

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/08/nyregion/covid-relief-undocumented-workers-nyc.html

But after a sweeping move by lawmakers this week, New York will now offer one-time payments of up to $15,600 to undocumented immigrants who lost work during the pandemic. The effort — a $2.1 billion fund in the state budget — is by far the biggest of its kind in the country and a sign of the state’s shift toward policies championed by progressive Democrats.

Remember when New York wouldn't offer a tax break for the health care workers they begged to come up to help them because the state couldn't afford it?

If they pay taxes I don't have much of a problem with this.  Most won't get the $15,600 as the misleading thread topic suggests.

What taxes do they pay if they work off the books?

Sales/excise tax on cigs, alcohol and gasoline.  Sales tax on fast food.  No income tax.

Quote
IRS estimates that about 6 million unauthorized immigrants file individual income tax returns each year. Research reviewed by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office indicates that between 50 percent and 75 percent of unauthorized immigrants pay federal, state, and local taxes.

They use an ITIN which allows them to pay taxes without a SS number.  Some illegals in this country are more productive than some regular citizens. 

I stand by my original assessment that if they pay taxes I don't have much of a problem with this.  If they're not paying taxes then I call BS like most normal people would.

I asked about if they work off the books. I am aware if they work at McDonald’s they have taxes taken out and then they get them back. Except SS.

I pay those too. Do I get a refund on them? When I go to another state I also pay state sales tax there. Am I a tax payer in those states as well?

Consumption taxes are not refundable.  Technically, yes.

So American Citizens who lost their jobs are not eligible? 
 

This is what infuriates me- laws aimed at only one group, while specifically not including everyone experiencing the same situation. Total BS- and I have not even mentioned the part of providing tax dollars to NON FOCKING CITIZENS

So illegals working off the books don’t pay the same taxes as the rest of us. Hence, they are not tax payers. They are only sales tax payers, the same as a tourist.

Yep. They don’t pay FICA taxes and the employers don’t pay FICA, FUTA or SUTA. Employers also aren’t paying WC insurance on their wages, which likely impacts the overall WC market. Would be interesting to know what that impact has.
