"U.S. citizens’ Social Security numbers are used when processing tax returns. Illegal immigrants, or people in the U.S. on work visas, use an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, or ITIN.

Those ITINs are at the center of the problem, allowing suspected illegal immigrants to get billions of dollars in tax credits for children who don't live in America, according to the Treasury Inspector General."
