Not sure to whom you are referring, either as poster or as immigrant.  But unless one applies for a visa and enters the country, or is granted asylum, they are an illegal immigrant.  As opposed to the other two, which are legal immigrants.

Asked and answered, US immigrantion officials refer to them as  immigrants. If you want to qualify then as illegal then I reserve the right to refer to everyone who failed to pay a parking ticket as an "illegal citizen"

Crossing the border is a misdemeanor. Is everyone who allegedly commiting a crime labeled illegals?

crossing the border a second time is a felony (which many do). Yes if you break the law you are doing something illegal. Running a stop sign is illegal. Its really not complicated at all.

No, people who break the law in the US are more commonly called criminals.  There is no such thing as an illegal citizen.  If you wish to be more correct, they are illegal aliens if they came here without a legal visa or overstayed their limit.

Wiki dumbs it down fairly well:

 

Illegal immigration is the illegal entry of a person or a group of persons across a country's border, in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destination country, with the intention to remain in the country, as well as people who remain living in another country when they do not have the legal right to do so.”

My personal MDL term is Prospective Citizen.

I'm only going by their definition as defined in the INA which is immigrant.

What if you used a carpool lane and didn't get caught?

Then you're still doing something illegal. You are  driving illegally

 

If you are not here legally then you are here illegally.  Its a simple as water is wet

Well, there are clearly two types when it comes to immigrant... those who come here legally, and those who do not.  If you wish to close your eyes to the illegal ones, that is certainly your prerogative.  But they still exist.

I didn't say I was or wasn't. Only thing I did was offer USCIS definition.
