Lots of people have their wages stolen -- not just undocumented immigrants (whom the wage laws also protect), but also fully-documented, legal-to-work immigrants and native US-born workers of every kind and color.
One of the most common ways unscrupulous employers try to steal wages is by pretending that someone is an "independent contractor" and using that fiction as they seek to evade the minimum wage laws.
If your boss is stealing your wages, get help. Contact an attorney.
