Yes, undocumented immigrants do pay taxes. Many contribute to federal, state, and local taxes through payroll taxes, sales taxes, and property taxes, often using Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) to file income tax returns. Estimates suggest that undocumented immigrants contribute billions of dollars annually to the U.S. economy through tax payments. However, they are generally ineligible for many social services and benefits for which tax contributions might typically qualify individuals.
