its really simply actually... if you have been working in the US for ANY amount of time illegally, you my friend are going home. unless for some unforseen reason they let you stay here. but i really doubt it. as for some kind of fee...you definatly will be paying a "fee" alright. you more than likely will be charged with fraud etc. and gain a criminal record and be ban from the US. good luck, sorry to hear about your misfortune.

1. Absolutely untrue.

2. Snarky and sarcastic.

It's possible that you could be arrested and have to wait in lockup until your status is determined / verified.

And if a comment gets a certain number of negative votes in the upper forums, the comment gets deleted or hidden. It really frustrates me when people make comments that are totally wrong, like mccbsimon did. That's just straight out fear mongering.
