Attached is a link to an investigative news story out of Indiana.
The story is about how some of our neighbors from the south have figured out how to scam the US Tax system and steal the child tax credits for children that are not even living in the US.
I would argue that the individual that assisted these taxpayers with obtaining the ITIN’s for the non-US children should be sought out and punished as well…

Illegals should not be allowed to get child tax credit or earned income. By obtaining TINs and they want to report income is fine, but not extra benefits. IRS should correct their software.
