Illegal immigrants, also known as illegal immigrants, black people and undocumented immigrants, refer to non-citizens who cross the border through illegal or overstaying.

In immigrant countries such as the United States, Australia and Canada, "undocumented immigrants" generally refer to those who live, live, work and receive education in the local area without the permission of the laws of the country of residence, including both illegal immigrants who entered the developed countries through illegal channels and those who entered the developed countries through legal channels and did not return to their original country of residence after allowing their stay.

Illegal immigration has caused many social problems. Such as economy, social welfare, education, crime, public welfare, health insurance and human rights. If an "immigrant" obtains the legal residency of the host country through various channels (such as obtaining Amnesty from the host country during his illegal stay), it is called "whitewashing".

For China people, illegal immigrants are often regarded as a threat to traditional culture, because they increase the crime rate, occupy public facilities, greatly increase government expenditure without paying taxes, or only a small number of people pay taxes and become cheap labor that attacks local employment.

For China people, compared with their own taxes, with the increase of illegal immigrants, their social welfare will be diluted and reduced. If illegal immigrants are mainly men, the adverse impact on public security, especially women's safety, will be particularly serious.

For developing countries or regions, illegal immigrants may make a significant contribution to the economy. Because most of them are engaged in the lowest-level jobs, the casualty rate of their own people has decreased, and the rapid work efficiency has enabled some countries to develop rapidly. However, because illegal immigrants have no legal status, most social benefits cannot be enjoyed with them.

For fear of being repatriated or sentenced, they are generally reluctant to call the police even if there is an accident. Some employers take advantage of this psychology of illegal immigrants and deliberately exploit them. Illegal immigrants have no identity, and it is difficult for the government to track and manage them. So the usual solution of local government is naturalization or repatriation.
