[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 320466, member: 1246"] From a Lou Dobbs column........ The text of the House passed [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/C?c110:./temp/~c110nG6zRf"][B][COLOR=#003399]bill[/COLOR][/B][/URL] contains language making "non resident aliens" _ illegal immigrants _ ineligible for the tax rebates. But every year, hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants use individual taxpayer identification numbers, known as ITINs, to file income tax returns with the IRS. These ID numbers are used instead of Social Security numbers. There are no exact statistics for how many illegal immigrants file tax returns, but this New York Times [URL="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/16/nyregion/16immig.html?ex=1334376000&en=9b21a57a590afb53&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland"][B][COLOR=#003399]story[/COLOR][/B][/URL] from last year details the significant increase in use of ITINs. This [URL="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18077009/"][B][COLOR=#003399]story[/COLOR][/B][/URL] also lays out the issue. Immigration advocates point out that many legal immigrants use ITINs, so it would be impossible to tell who is legal and who is not from those who use these IDs. The Senate version of the bill would prohibit use of ITINs, meaning some legal immigrants would not receive rebates.
