I have answered this question before but I think it's worth repeating I'm copy-pasting it: Whoever broke the law by arranging fake marriages, SSN's or things like that should be punished somehow before receiving any kind of forgiveness. Be real though US cannot afford to be without legal or illegal Immigration. That said I'd add this: Immigration in the US today is a joke. Illegals have more rights than legal immigrants and visa holders. I lived in the US for 8 years, my whole family speak English fluently, I hold a PhD degree. However because my work visa could not be renewed and I couldn't find any loophole in the law, fake wife, or wanted to stay in the country illegally, I ended up having to leave the country my kids learned to love. We all felt at home up there (contrary to some who live in ghettos and only speak their native language) and respected the US law while the global scumbags that will probably get an amnesty in a near future will benefit from their law breaking strategies. They will find defenders who say "they work hard and pay taxes" so let me tell you all this: I did the same PLUS under the law and because of that people like me is being punished. This sucks! I'm now well adjusted back in my country but I know my kids wish they were still there. Maybe, who knows, they will go back someday but I'll make sure they take no passports, produce fake ID's and SSN's and don't forget to go in a makeshiftboat ride or cross a desert so they can be more successful.....

The quick reply is , "no" you cannot follow for amnesty that's beyond except you're grand-fathered in. That is, if there's a earlier software filed to your behalf in one other class earlier than the "solar set" date of the amnesty software. For instance, the final amnesty software was once the LIFE Act of 2001, which has a sundown of April 30, 2001. You have got to show that there was once an I130 or I-a hundred and forty software filed to your behalf earlier than that date. Also, in case you software is filed among January 14 1998 and December 21, 2000, you have got to additionally end up that you simply had been bodily right here within the U.S. on the time of the software. With regards to long term legislation, there's no invoice that's provided to Congress as of date. You will need to wait, and underneath this economic climate, immigration is customarily now not the precedence for Congress.

There should not be an amnesty program again. It has caused the problem we now have. I feel that the people who have come here illegally are counting on another amnesty program and that is why they are coming by the droves. I say if you are illegal, you get sent out of the country. Maybe if we send the illegals to another country illegally, that would solve the problem of repeat offenders. Most other countries have much harsher penalties up to and including the death penalty for invading their country.
By the way, we were picking our own food and doing the other jobs that people deem as menial or beneath them long before the illegals came here. We seemed to make it just fine then. I think we will do just fine when they are all deported.

Solve the problem first, that will be the hard part. Get that visa exit program Homeland Security just decided isn't 'cost effective' into place.
For screening, no twice illegal (including identity theft), none who are or have dependants on welfare (except due to disability), none where the head of the family isn't employed, no gang members.
I suspect the no dependents on welfare requirement would drop out, though. Still, it is a problem. There is a lot of anger at people coming here and having kids to get food stamps and aid to families with dependent children 'for the kids' even if the parent works. We all pay for our own kids, and Mexico has dropped to having two kids per family IN MEXICO per an account I read recently - yet here they average more. People presume, rightly or wrongly, that it is because they get more public paid benefits that way, and people resent that.

You know that poor hard working Mexican stereotype is a thing of the past. The one of the sombrero lazy one laying in the sun is more the norm...scratch that they don't come out tin the daylight they are like cockroaches scurrying in the light. The anchor babies born out of the illegals of the 70's and 80's and the sneak ins of that time are of the gimme mentality and one of extreme arrogance of the race, unfounded, We have to start getting them out!!

Anyone who has received benefits (food stamps, medicaid, etc.) at the expense of tax payers should go back. Anyone who has participated in TERRORIST activities such as marching and demanding rights (or joined hate groups) should go back. Every one of them with a criminal record must go back. All of the ones who have used any name other than their own should be sent back. How many do you think would be left? That's why it would just be easier to stop the benefits and jobs and send them all home. We don't have the time or the money to check the backgrounds of all the millions of illegals here.
We'll manage just fine without them. Most Americans weren't born with silver spoons in their mouths and have been doing for themselves all their lives.

Obviously a compromise has to be made between the Deport them all crowd and the give them all amnesty.
That being said, I propose that anyone living here illegally since before 1907 that has not committed any crimes, should be granted ammnesty. Everyone else gets to go home.

I'll have to actually see the borders secure and the flow stopped before I even think of the complexities of the other issues. I want to see serious action....not token stunts to appear like their trying to do something.
