> Dear Sen. George Voinovich,
>
> As a native Ohioan and excellent customer of the
> Internal Revenue Service,
> I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have
> contacted the Department
> of Homeland Security in an effort to determine the
> process for becoming an
> illegal alien and they referred me to you. My
> primary reason for wishing
> to change my status from U.S. Citizen to illegal
> alien stems from the bill
> which was recently passed by the Senate and for
> which you voted.
> If my understanding of this bill's provisions is
> accurate, as an illegal
> alien who has been in the United States for five
> years, all I need to do
> to become a citizen is to pay a $2,000 fine and
> income taxes for three of
> the last five years. I know a good deal when I see
> one and I am anxious to
> get the process started before everyone figures it
> out.
> Simply put, those of us who have been here legally
> have had to pay taxes
> every year, so I'm excited about the prospect of
> avoiding two years of
> taxes in return for paying a $2,000 fine. Is there
> any way that I can apply
> to be illegal retroactively? This would yield an
> excellent result for me
> and my family because we paid heavy taxes in 2004
> and 2005.
> Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin
> using the local emergency
> room as my primary health care provider. Once I have
> stopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my
> accountant figures I could save almost $10,000 a
> year. Another benefit in gaining illegal status
> would be that my daughter would receive preferential
> treatment relative to her law school applications,
> as well as "in-state" tuition rates for many
> colleges throughout the United States for my son.
>
> Lastly, I understand that illegal status would
> relieve me of the burden of
> renewing my driver's license and making those
> burdensome car insurance
> premiums. This is very important to me given that I
> still have college age
> children driving my car. If you would provide me
> with an outline of the
> process to become illegal (retroactively if
> possible) and copies of the
> necessary forms, I would be most appreciative. Thank
> you for your assistance.
