No-Match Letters and No Work Visas to Cover

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

More than 8 million names of workers in the United States do not match legal names listed on their social security cards.  The mismatches might be because of marriage, divorce, use of a middle name rather than the first name, or a misspelling in the full legal name.

 

Some people feel these mismatches are from illegal workers using fraudulent social security cards to qualify for legal employment in the United States.

 

Despite sending out 140,000 no-match letters each year to employers, the Social Security Administration receives little follow-up to rectify this mismatch. In fact, more than $500 billion dollars of wage earnings came from individuals whose work names did not match.  Some numbers were being used more than once in different states.

 

In order to get a no-match letter, an employer must have 10 or more employees whose social security numbers do not match the legal name assigned to the social security number.

 

The Department of Homeland Security plans to penalize U.S. employers if action is not taken on behalf of the employee to address the name mismatch.  The employer faces up to $10,000 in fines per employee should the correction not take place within 90 days or must fire employee.

 

Of the 3 million illegal immigrants in California, almost two-thirds are working illegally.

 

The expected result might replace the Gold Rush of 1849 as there will be a rush for vast opportunities for many Americans.  There will be hundreds of restaurants, hotels, laundry shops, landscaping, construction, and cleaning services searching for legal workers.

 

But how many Americans will show up day after day to do the work?  I suspect not many.

 

The idea is to end illegal immigration and illegal hiring practices - not deflate the economy.

 

Without a work visa program, who will fill 2 million jobs in California? 

 

America must develop a better work visa program to accommodate aspiring immigrants and migrants who want to work and live legally.  The incentive is called, the Myworkvisa.us Job Board.
