Whether or not they ever collect that would depend on whether they ever get legal and are using a social security number that is legal. I am opposed to agreements with other countries that would allow people, for example in Mexico, to pay into their Mexican system and then draw money out of our system or participate in our system. But if a person is working in this country, whether they’re legal or illegal, if they’re using a social security number and paying into the social security system, then I assume that if they can hold on to that social security number, they can get it back. http://www.askyourlawmaker.org/answers/it%E2%80%99s-my-understanding-if-people-are-hired-and-they-turn-social-security-number-they-are-char http://www.askyourlawmaker.org/answers/it%E2%80%99s-my-understanding-if-people-are-hired-and-they-turn-social-security-number-they-are-char#comments Thu, 07 Aug 2008 13:52:32 -0500 amukherjee 1538 at http://www.askyourlawmaker.org
