I think the Trump administration has a looooong track record of not GAF about records laws, or heck, laws in general. So who will stop him from his illegality?! |
Just to clarify: a green card holder can have a SSN. When you are naturalized, you are no longer an immigrant. The legal immigrants they are talking about here are probably asylum seekers whose status was recently revoked. |
^ “no longer an immigrant” for the purposes of these enforcement actions. |
If you have an SSN, then you are either a citizen, or you are here lawfully and re authorized to work under a legal visa program (H1B, seasonal workers for tourism or agriculture, etc). Illegal immigrants to not get SSNs. They might get TINs if they work to report earnings. But that’s the IRS, not SSA. This punishes the legal immigrants who have followed all the laws and don’t work under the table, and have not committed any crimes. And it keeps SSA from getting FICA taxes from immigrants who pay into the system, but often aren’t eligible for benefits to be paid out to them if they retire or disability. These workers are part of the reason the trust fund is still solvent.. And puts these workers in a position where they cannot rent a home, earn income except under the table, have a bank account— despite following the law. I thought Rs wanted legal immigration? Well, this punishes legal immigrants. Why would you do this? Trump is finding that deporting millions of people is hard, so he is trying to force immigrants present and working legally to self deport. Because ot turns out not being able to get a W2 job, rent housing, get a car loan, have a bank account, etc, etc makes it almost impossible to live here And knowingly marking people who aren’t dead as dead has a ripple effect that messes the whole SSA computer house of cards. And it’s flat out illegal to lie when modifying government records (also, DOGe is blatantly ignoring an injunction that says they cannot access or modify SSA PII. Turns out the criminals rent the green card holders on H1Bs who are being marked dead. They are the DOGe Bros. I hope they all get shipped to El Salvador. — SSA employee. |
No. But that’s not what is happening here. Illegal immigrants can’t get SSNs. They aren’t just cancelling SSNs either. They are declaring legal immigrants, who re working legally with approved visas dead, which blows up their lives— with no due process. And nothing stops them from declaring American citizens who oppose Trump dead next. |
I hope there is a backup copy of this database before they started corrupting the data. Otherwise the whole database might need to be rebuilt. |
No. By definition, illegal immigrants are not eligible to get SSNs. They get TINs if they need to pay taxes. SSNs for non-citizens are lonely for people who have a valid work visa. |
Are they all immigrants that overstayed the terms of their visas? |
Cite for this? You don’t have one, because you have zero idea how these people were chosen. We do know that Trump has said the purpose is to make people self deport. Which means it’s highly likely you are wrong. If these people no longer had legal status, there would be no reason to jump through hoops and illegally alter government records to try to force self deportation. ICE could just pick them up and put them on a plane. The only reason to go through all this trouble is if they are here legally and are not eligible for normal deportation proceedings. |
No they are not. They added 6,000 people to the DMF with fake dates of death for people that are alive. There is no section in this database for people the government decides they dislike and want to cancel their SSN. They are fraudulently entering fake dates of death to target political enemies and legal immigrants. |
The grownups here are referring to immigrants. They are US Citizens. You know, like your grandparents or great grandparents were? Not sure how you turned "immigrant" into "illegals," except that you've taken too many MAGA pills. |
No. They are US citizens who immigrated years ago and have legally obtained social security numbers. |
Next up, they can't have bank accounts or get jobs because they will not have a SSN. Banks will cancel their accounts. |
They came here illegally during open border administration. |
Did they enter the US legally? |
