When was the last time YOU lost your job to an illegal and why didn't you suit the employer?

I've never lost a job to anyone.  I've quit or left postitions for better jobs, but I've never worried about an "illegal" getting my job.  It's pretty hard to get a teaching certificate in the state of IL.

Try being here legal for 4 years, not working during that time and stuck in the system. Then you have something to actually complain about.\n\nHave some patience and go easy on the caps..idiot

You MUST report them to the Better Business, Labor Department and get an attorney.  In the event you are an illegal immigrant it would not matter that you have to put up with your employer's failure to pay you.  Get all the documentation you can get.  If you don't have paper documents see if you can get a hold of office e-mails, memos, phone record's etc.. Also try to get your employer to put in writing the reason's why the company is in trouble and why you aren' being paid and by when do they expect to pay you.  Also try to find out if this has happened before to others before and try to get their story.  Keep dates of all conversations with your employer and try to get them to put in writing any agreements and to sign them.

It is when you are fired illegally.

The case was thrown out because illegals aren't in the system. You can't possibly get accurate stats about it, only rough estimates can be figured out with illegal status data.

I employ people, at good wages.  I get calls all the time asking for references on employees who have left my business.  The ONLY question I'm ever asked is this, "Would you employ this person again ... Or ... Is he/she eligible to be rehired?"\n\nWhen I call previous employers of my applicants I ask them the same question.  It's all I need to know.\n\nIf the last guy you worked for won't take you back I'm not going to hire you either.

Depends... did you quit or were you fired? If you were fired and u didnt recieve your last paycheck you could take them to court, but if u quit your out of luck, other wise theres no other money that you can recieve

Even worse, they steal our ss#.  I have a friend who just found out that his ss# was stolen - the IRS audited him and wanted back taxes for a job he never worked over in AK.  We live in Texas.  After much  investigaion - he has found out that an illegal alien got ahold of his ss# and has had several jobs in the US - all pretending to be my friend.  He has both the Texas and AK DA's investigating.

It is against the law when people try to avoid reporting their income and not paying taxes as they should. And don't say as you supposedly do. It is a fact that there are undocumented workers who get paid under the table.

The US government is not the one hiring illegals, but you are right in as much as I believe the US government should penalize the employers for hiring illegals.  May I add that most employers do hire illegals because the illegals cannot complain about how they are underpaid, overworked, and abused.  More money for the employers.

Contact the Immigrations office near you or your local police department should be able to direct you in the proper direction.  Do not get too discouraged if they do not respond very quickly as they are head over heals in backlogged work.  Illegal Aliens is a big issue with the American Public, however as with everything else we do not hire enough people to get the job done properly.  The saddest part of this is that Illegal Aliens do take American Jobs, however they are the Jobs that Americans won't take themselves and need to be done in order for our economy to work properly.  The Illegal Alien is paid less than an American would be paid and are happy to get it.  The way they are treated here in America you would think that they would be happy to be deported and get away from us.

I was called on my day off by the owner of a company i was with for 15 years and said he sold the company and i had no job anymore. he did say he would give me a thousand dollars (which didnt cover my 2 weeks vacation i lost) if i did the humiliating task of going to the store while the competition emptied it out. very stressing and humiliating. havent found a job that i liked since
