Now days with zero tolerance don't take any chance working without a valid work permit. Even if your current company doesn't keep track of the expiration date, something like this can come back to bite you.

It wasn't like that in the 80's and 90's when a lawyer would tell his client it was ok because the IRS and INS were different and didn't talk to each other. Hell, I even knew people with student visas and such working under their SSN only and paying taxes because "the IRS won't care if you send them money" and somehow it seemed like the lesser evil than working under the table.

Now days, however go by the book.
