That will be interesting to see.

Already changes have taken place for certain applicants.

People on Visa and living / working in USA are obliged to file Taxes. So Green Card is not any excuse unless that person does not live in USA.

I agree.

I just am not sure about the CPA rules and tax laws. This question is best answered by a CPA (Certified Public Accountant).
I know people who have not filed and think that it is O.K. when they apply for U.S/ citizenship.
It may or may not be.

The Citizenship application asks, "Have you ever NOT filed taxes..." If you say yes, be prepared to answer why. You don't need a CPA to know that you had better file them even when not required to. I know three people trying to pay missed taxes from prior years so they can apply for citizenship.

And rightfully so. It is not just an one way street. You come here and you contribute to society.

Aliens are not allowed to come here and leach off of OUR economy. Best quickly start making a living and forget about any social assistance.

Section 8 and other programs, should NOT be accessible for aliens unless they have paid at a minimum 10 years into the system or longer.

More fake narrative.. If you have a A# and don't file taxes you get deported for tax evasion and probably charged in the other country... Otherwise I know some people America owes a lot of money to...

There should be a rule.. If you can't pass a SAT, or especially a fifth-grade math quiz, you should not describe or insist economic issues...

What fake narrative? Who are you responding to, or what are you talking about?

To the people suggesting you can get away with working at a W2 or 1099 job and not pay taxes... Unless you work with a fake identity, but to do that there would have to be major security holes or corruption in multiple government branches for their to be tens of thousands or more people doing it..

One way to put everyone's mind at ease is for "conservatives" to stop hiring illegals for all those food processing plants and construction and landscaping companies... If people can retire off a years salary just by jumping a fence and social networking, then guess what they are going to do? If there is less money in the US than their own country, then guess what they are going to do??

Don't complain about it on the internet while you're part of the problem.....
