Tax Returns Rise for Immigrants in U.S. Illegally

I love the guy who has been setting aside money for 6 years unaware that he could file a tax return. He shows up at a tax office with $14k in cash to pay his back taxes. Also, according to the article, about 2/3 of the tax returns require a payment, not a refund.

Depends on who you talk to. <_<

WASHINGTON – Someone has finally fixed an approximate taxpayer cost of between 12 million and 15 million illegal aliens residing in the U.S.

A new study by the Heritage Foundation's Robert Rector found a household headed by an individual without a high school education, including about two-thirds of illegal aliens, costs U.S. taxpayers more than $32,000 in federal, state and local benefits. That same family contributes an average of $9,000 a year in taxes, resulting in a net tax burden of $22,449 each year.

Over the course of the household's lifetime that tax burden translates to $1.1 million.
