? I know lots of people that get paid cash. They have to report their income at the end of the year and pay what they owe. What is evasive about that?Maybe so, but that's illegal as well. Tax evasion.It is probably hard to prove the employer knew the employee supplied false ID's. But some have been caught actually steering prospective workers to places that would provide them.They've got excuses for everything.Yeah, tell that to the SS Admin, they won't even tell you if some is using your SS number, but they're happy to take the payroll deductions knowing they won't have to pay anything out.

How does this work? You file your taxes and they kick you out noting you didn't claim the income you made from across the country.
"A new report from TRAC, a nonpartisan and nonprofit data analysis division at Syracuse University, found that criminal prosecution of employers who knowingly hire undocumented individuals is rare.
The researchers at TRAC used data provided by government agencies to find that, nationwide from March 2017 to April 2018, almost 86,000 people were prosecuted for illegal entry. In that same time, 11 people were arrested for employing undocumented immigrants. Not one U.S. company faced prosecution."
Also, the time I picked strawberries, there was no paperwork involved. I showed up, was handed a flat and assigned a row. When I was done for the day, they counted my berries and paid me cash.
Probably a lot of workers are doing that kind of work, don't you think?
