Can a PI's employee be an illegal alien?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if they are under supervision

  4. Only if they do not carry out investigatory tasks

The correct answer is: No

It is illegal for a PI, or any employer, to knowingly hire someone who is an illegal alien. This includes hiring individuals directly as employees or through a third-party agency. Option A is incorrect because it goes against the laws and regulations set in place to prevent the hiring of illegal aliens. Option C is incorrect because supervision does not change the fact that the employee is still an illegal alien. Option D is also incorrect because carrying out investigatory tasks or not does not affect the legality of an individual's citizenship status. Therefore, the correct and most legally sound answer is B - No.
