Illegal Immigration

I have never been an illegal alien in this or anyother country. But I have known a few who were. I've learned a few things that they would do to make their continuing existence in this country a little easier. These methods of 'stealth emigration' were all done by people I knew and who were from Ireland.

1) Where an Irish person entered this country they receive a 'holiday' visa that allows them to visit the country for 90 days.
2) On arrival and with the holiday visa, you can get the Social Security office to issue you a letter that allows you to open a bank account and get a drivers license.
3) To open a bank account you need a Social Security number, unless you have a letter from the Social Security office stating that you are a visiting foreign national. Once the bank account it open (which requires a deposit), you can have them mail you your bank statement to your address. Usually a legal friends address.
4) Armed with the letter from the Social Security office, a bank statement, your passport and your Irish drivers license, you head down to the DMV to get a drivers license.
5) You go down to the airport with your holiday visa and give it to your contact there. They drop it in the box that all leaving holiday visa's are placed. As far as the Immigration is concerned, you've just left!
6) You go get yourself an apartment. When they ask for ID and all that jazz, you already have a previous abode (your friends place), a drivers license and a bank account. You get all the utilities hooked up and have them mail you the bills.
7) After a few months, you bank might start wondering why a Social Security number isn't attached to the account. So you close it.
8) You've already gotten a job that pays cash under the table so you've been paying cash or using money orders all the time, so there was never much need for a bank account anymore.

Now you're practically legal!
