There is no NJ law about it. AZ is the only State with any law concerning illegal aliens (and it hasn't taken effect yet)



Federal law makes it a crime to hire an illegal alien.



In addition, the aliens wages cannot legally be taken as a tax deduction. However, most employers of illegals are either running an all-cash operation and not paying any taxes, or report the wages under fake SSN's.



An employer also cannot legally list an illegal alien on his workers comp policy, so most employers of illegals don't have any workers comp coverage - which is why at my wife's emergency room, there's rarely more than a couple of hours go by without a pickup truck with a rag over the license plate driving up and dropping off some manual laborer with his fingers wrapped in a rag, or being dropped on the sidewalk unconscious before the truck zooms off.

They're illegal. What part of illegal don't you get? It's against the law to hire them. Period. It doesn't matter how many of them you see in front of the Home Depot, it's not legal to hire them. There are no tax or insurance issues for the employer, just legal issues. Don't hire them if you don't want to break the law. Got it?What is the law in NJ about hiring and paying illegal aliens?
