An immigrant is a person who enters into one country with the intention of settling there permanently. (emigrants are people who leave a country. The emigrants from one country are immigrants in their new country.)

An illegal immigrant is one that enters a foreign country without obtaining the papers needed to enter that country or else after legally entering as a visitor, stays there without getting permission to stay on a permanent basis.
