There is no such thing as an “illegal immigrant.” It is not illegal to be in the US without papers, no matter if you entered legally or not. And “entering legally” means going through a checkpoint. You have to do that regardless of whether you’re a citizen or not. Plenty of undocumented immigrants enter legally and then overstay their visa, which is not a crime in the US. It’s literally not part of the criminal code.
