Obama’s Millions of Illegal Aliens Already Eligible for Welfare

Now all that’s left is to make them eligible to vote. I’m sure the GOP leadership is on it.
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen confirmed Tuesday that illegal immigrants granted deportation amnesty are entitled to collect additional tax refunds under President Obama’s plan for executive action on immigration.
The refunds will come from an Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and will be retroactive, based on money earned while working illegally from as far back as 2011. This only applies to individuals who previously registered for an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) and hold a valid Social Security number, but could still add up to billions of dollars in payments they were ineligible for prior to amnesty.
EITC’s can be legit, but they’re also used as welfare by a portion of Obama’s voting base. Pipe in the massive amount of improper payments and the numbers really start taking off.
Moreover, this person, who is here in the U.S. unlawfully, could be able to file an amended tax return for up to the last three tax years, possibly receiving upwards of $24,000 in tax credits.
That’s what Obama’s middle class economics really look.
