*Keeping us on our toes, eh, John?*
As bad as it all is in the Foggy Bottom Theater of Scandal and along the
Rio Grande, this one slipped under the radar:
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) quietly changed regulations to allow
more undocumented immigrants to keep their taxpayer status through a
program that is rife with fraud and abuse, and to delay deactivation of
immigrant taxpayer status until 2016.
The IRS now prevents peoples’ Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
(ITIN) from automatically expiring after five years as previously mandated.
Now immigrants can keep their ITIN so long as they pay taxes at least once
in a five-year period. SOURCE - The Daily Caller

Convenient that there will be no deactivations of immigrant taxpayer
numbers until Obama is out of office.
The ITIN program is primarily used by undocumented workers to follow the
law and file income taxes in the United States. Reports came out during the
IRS scandal linking ITIN fraud to billions in lost taxpayer dollars. The
IRS was forced to reform the ITIN program at the start of 2013 – but this
new regulation undoes that reform.
*"Undocumented workers"...how many euphemisms for "illegal alien" can be
squeezed into one little article?*
The Obama Administration changing laws on their own again. Shame, shame.
(Or for those who speak Yiddish, shanda, shanda, which, as usual, says
more than the English word ever could since there is scandal involved.)
This is not to say that this has not been noticed on Capitol Hill...we just
didn't really hear about it in the context of the immigration crisis:
Republican Texas Rep. Sam Johnson grilled the acting commissioner of the
IRS on ITIN fraud at a hearing as recent as June 27, 2013.
Oh, wait, that was OVER A YEAR AGO. The southern border wasn't a hot topic
at the time. But something that Rep. Johnson noticed is pretty significant:
“On the screen, I’ve got figure 6 from the 2012 IG report showing most
frequently used addresses for ITIN tax refunds.* As you can see, nearly
24,000 tax refunds totaling $46.4 million were issued to the same address
in Atlanta,*” Johnson said. “Bottom-line these ITINs are costing taxpayers
dearly because they can be used to fraudulently get tax refunds…Look at
figure 3 on the screen. *Over 1,000 ITINs were assigned to individuals
using the same address in Atlanta*. You agree that there’s still a problem?”
Yeah, that's a problem. That many people at one address would be a
building the size of the Pentagon.
A lot of this is couched in terms of illegal immigrants getting free money
via tax refunds...that illegals who are trying to avoid INS are actually
filing returns isn't mentioned strains credence. Are our immigration
agencies trying to find these people or not?
Don't answer that.
Only in America. Only in a place with a government behemoth so large that
agencies act as silos and not in consort can illegal aliens file tax
returns, get refunds, and the Internal Revenue Service gives them an
extension until after the current president is out of office with no fear
of being caught and deported.
