What does ICE and CIS do if they find out that some one is using a dead person's identity in all transactions, like passport..visa..applying jobs in the USA? As if he is that person.

Shoot them on sight.
In one word it will be crime, It is like asking what will happen if someone rub the bank. I would say USCIS or ICE should be last concern but reality is that won't be shoot on sight because that is just in movies and PraetorianXI (Honorable Moderator) watch too much of it and mixed it up with reality.

Is this the case of an alien using a false ID and claiming to be a USC? If so, from an immigration perspective it is fatal. A false claim to US Citizenship (with very few, very narrow, exceptions) results in a lifetime bar from all benefits under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

that kind of identity theft is very difficult to detect -in the US only 0.01 % of such cases get to the court if ever -only way that kind of scam could be detected is by "help of public" or by way of informants-on average about 15000 (got caught trying to obtain passports or DL on someones else identity) people get arrested every year for such crime but estimate is that around 8 MILLION (YEP THAT MUCH)people in the US are using some sort of fake IDs (SSN ,DRIVERS LICENCES or PASSPORTS etc.)-now even that is conservative estimate -probaly at least around 500 000 has complete identity of the regular US citizen (passport;birth certificate ,DL ,SSN)even if they are in fact illegal aliens

Yes. He left his native land using someone's identity since that person already passed away few years back, and i think it still isn't registered as one of the deads that's why he used it

This is willfull misrepresentation for an immigration benefit. This is immigration fraud and a deportable offense. Having said that, unless somone reported it with supporting evendence to immigration, it's a very difficult thing to find out.
Depends on what he's doing with that identity. There is a public Social Security Death Index. Anyone can look up a social security number and find out if it belongs to a dead person and that dead person's bio information. If you tried to seek employment or any interaction with the federal government involving the social security number you will be detected. What happens next is another question, but it would certainly be several kinds of serious, deportable crimes that could also land you in state or federal prison.This is willfull misrepresentation for an immigration benefit.

If I'm understanding the post correctly, the assumed identity if of a deceased person in the country of origin. This would almost be impossible to detect and do anything about.
