PROTECTING YOUR ASSETS IN UNCERTAIN TIMES 

THE REALITY WE'RE FACING

The current environment of enhanced immigration enforcement is creating real challenges for the 11 million undocumented community of which 39% are homeowners and 1 million own businesses. "Customers tell me that people are afraid and scared to come out," business owner David Rebolloso told Newsweek. We understand these fears are impacting both your daily operations and long-term financial security.

Key Concerns We're Hearing:

• Fear of losing homes and businesses during enforcement actions
• Uncertainty about asset protection if detained or deported
• Worry about family members' financial security
• Concerns about business continuity during raids
• Questions about constitutional rights and legal protections

 YOUR PROPERTY RIGHTS ARE PROTECTED

IMPORTANT: There are no legal barriers to property ownership in the United States at all. Immigration status is irrelevant. This is because immigration status is independent of the rights to own property. Additionally, fair housing laws protect you from discrimination.

Business Ownership Rights: U.S. Immigration Law doesn't say anywhere that an undocumented immigrant is barred from owning a business. There are no laws, immigration or otherwise, that prevent an undocumented immigrant from legally forming and owning a business in any state. Yes, undocumented people can start LLCs or C Corporations.

 YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

You have fundamental protections that cannot be taken away:

• Fourth Amendment Protection: The Supreme Court has extended this right to undocumented immigrants, holding that they have the same Fourth Amendment protections as US citizens and legal residents.
• Due Process Rights: As a result, undocumented immigrants cannot be deprived of life, liberty, or property without fair legal proceedings. That means immigrants cannot be deported without having an opportunity to explain to a judge why they should be allowed to remain in the US.
• Guaranteed Rights: Regardless of your immigration status, you have guaranteed rights under the Constitution.
• Right to Legal Representation: You have the right to a hearing to challenge a deportation order, unless you waive your right to a hearing

 IMMEDIATE PROTECTION STRATEGIES

1. POWER OF ATTORNEY (CRITICAL)

A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows someone you trust (your Agent) to handle important financial matters on your behalf if you are unable to.

Your trusted agent can:

• Sign contracts and documents related to the sale or transfer of property
• Manage bank accounts and financial transactions
• Pay bills and maintain property
• Make business decisions on your behalf

2. DEPORTATION TRUST

A deportation trust is a type of asset protection that could be crucial in the case of deportation. This legally protects your assets and ensures they can be managed for your family's benefit.

3. DOCUMENT PROTECTION

Collect and make copies of important documents, including birth certificates, immigration paperwork, other forms of identification and work permits.

Essential documents to secure:

• Property deeds and titles
• Business licenses and permits
• Tax records and ITIN documentation
• Bank account information
• Insurance policies
• Family identification documents

 BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLANNING

ITIN for Business Operations: An undocumented individual will need a valid Social Security Number (SSN) or ITIN to do business and pay taxes as an independent contractor, freelancer, or business owner. Having an ITIN does not entitle its holder to Social Security benefits or change the holder's employment or immigration status, but it allows for legal tax compliance.

Tax Compliance Benefits: Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Maintaining tax compliance through your ITIN demonstrates your legitimate business operations and contribution to the economy.

Immediate Actions:

• Secure your ITIN if you don't already have one
• Designate trusted managers with legal authority
• Secure business banking and financial access
• Create succession plans for key operations
• Protect customer and supplier relationships
• Maintain tax compliance to preserve business legitimacy

 FAMILY PROTECTION MEASURES

For Mixed-Status Families:

• Estate planning to protect children's inheritance
• Guardianship arrangements for minor children
• Financial access for family members
• Educational fund protection

 YOU ARE NOT ALONE

The reality is that there are currently an estimated 11 million individuals living in the United States without legal status, the vast majority of whom are working, paying taxes, and contributing in both economic and non-economic ways to their community, often starting their own businesses, and playing integral roles in agriculture, construction, hospitality, and other industries that are essential to the U.S. economy.

In 2022, 39 percent of undocumented immigrant households owned their homes. Your contributions to the economy through taxes, business ownership, and community participation are substantial and recognized.
