My tree guy is legal. His price is about the same compare to an illegal which was about 200 bucks difference. This was a 2500 clean up / cut job. The guys that have a language barrier are competing against each others so the pricing should be about the same legal or not.
Illegals takes checks, have bank accounts but do not pay into the system. What tax, if they do not have SSC number. The only time they pay is when they use someone's ssc #. My mom's retired, but someone had stolen her number somehow so they can work. Luckily, my wife's college buddy runs the social security investigative office in Los Angeles. Busted him at work.
