The only way anyone can receive social security benefits is if he/she has earned at least 40 credits (yearly maximum credits=4) or if they are a surviving spouse of someone who has done so. These credits must accrue to a legitimate social security number, not to a false number used by illegals to get a job. There has been a rumor for years that the Carter administration enacted a law to pay illegal's benefits at age 65. This is completely false. "Totalization", which combines social security credits earned in the US (legally) with those earned in one of 20 countries that the United States has an agreement with, is best described here: www.snopes/inboxer/pending/mexican.asp.

Can illegal immigrants get welfare payments in Texas?

By Law, an illegal and even a legal resident (to a certain degree) cannot receive any welfare benefits. However, some illegal immigrants can get benefits by acquiring illegal social security cards (fake numbers) or from stolen social security cards (stolen identity). On a side note, children of illegal immigrants that are born into this country are considered legal American citizens because of "Jus Soli" which means "right of the soil" (birthright) by the 14th amendment. They can receive welfare benefits and any of the privelages and rights of any American Citizen. The way you can get deported if the ICE through the police or some other entity notifies them that a person is an illegal immigrant.
