Penalties for Hiring Undocumented Immigrants
You may be subject to civil and criminal penalties for hiring undocumented immigrant workers. Civil penalties range from a minimum of $375 per unauthorized worker for a first offense up to a maximum of $1,600 per worker for a third or subsequent offense. If you are found to have engaged in a “pattern and practice” of hiring undocumented workers, then you can be fined up to $3,000 per employee and/or imprisoned for up to six months.

Generally if knowingly done so. I can see dreamers and Airbnb circumventing this by forming an llc or self-proprietorship and contracting as an outside agent, protecting Airbnb.
