“Tax Law and the Undocumented” was one of the less-popular choices on our glorious Readerpalooza poll, but it’s tax time, and we want to make sure this information is out there, because someone really needs it. (Our motto here at Statutes of Liberty is “Decreasing Needless Suffering: It’s Taking Longer Than We Thought.”)
So, it’s time for a Q&A between our imaginary interviewer, Cosell, and our non-imaginary founding partner.
Cosell: Let’s cut to the chase. Do illegal immigrants undocumented people, what-have-you do they have to pay taxes?
Montana: Yes. Paying taxes on U.S. income is required under federal law whether you are here legally or illegally.
