No there is not a statute of limitation for immigrants. If they are in the country illegally, they can be arrested and deported at any time. Someone can't sneak into the country and hide in order to become legal.
If you are talking about an specific number of illegal immigrants you know personally, Well there is not much you can do. You have to be a company/corporatio n to sponsor unknown illegals. It is also almost impossible to get employment visas for uneducated, unskilled immigrants.

However, this was not a blanket amnesty for all illegal immigrants in the country.
The term "amnesty" in US politics, and presumably when 2016 Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz uses it, typically refers to the idea of giving the Illegal Immigrants in the United States some sort of pardon for the crime of illegal border crossing.

How do immigrants become a Canadian citizen
The issue of illegal immigration is a sensitive one. Many citizens of a nation feel that deportation is appropriate for illegal immigrants, as it is both mandated by law and viewed as a personal right of the nation to permit only those who pass qualifications to become naturalized. Amnesty is generally frowned on by citizens, as they view it as capitulation or giving the illegal immigrants a free ride to citizenship status. Additional problems occur as illegal immigrants do not pay taxes but use the social programs those taxes are designed to pay for. This can result in exacerbating economic problems.
