No, it isn't easy. The idea that anchor babies can legalize status is a myth. Well, it can, but that is only when the citizen baby turns 21 and files an immigration petition I-130. But up until that time you will be subject to deportation. The US government can and does deport illegals with citizen children.
One other way is to surrender/get caught by USCIS and apply for cancellatino of removal because it would cause an extreme hardship to a qualifying citizen. It has to be extreme, as in more than a regular hardship. So arguing that your citizen child would be deprived of your love, affection, and support would not work. Also, financial arguments probably wont work (i.e. i need to work in the US to support my children)

Why do some American interest groups oppose immigration?
One of the most un-American things imaginable is to be opposed to immigration. No red-blooded American does this. Every single citizen of the US has an immigrant background, and immigration has made the US a great nation. However, illegal immigration is another matter altogether. I don't think there is any reason for the US to have open borders with any other nation. Persons should not be granted US citizenship just because they were resourceful enough to enter the US and live here for some length of time. Can you imagine persons doing this in Iran, Yemen, the United Arab Emirates, or any number of other countries? "I've lived here illegally, yes, but I have been here for 15 years. I demand citizenship." I don't think it would go well in most cases. Immigration should be a lawful and orderly process for everyone, and illegal immigrants should be treated respectfully and fairly according to the laws of the land.
Peoples indigenous to North America are a special case. There is no excuse for the way that most tribes have been treated by European descendants over the centuries. But the fact remains that when the US was established, every person who initially claimed citizenship was born outside of the United States.
Does the immigration service has right to revoke your citizenship?
Yes. In the following cases: 1. Convicted For An Act Of Treason Against The United States
2. Holding A Policy Level Position In A Foreign Country
3. Serving In Your Native Country's Armed Forces If That Country Is Engaged In Hostilities Or At War With The United States
4. Serving In Your Native Country's Armed Forces As An Officer Or A Non-Commissioned Officer
Absolutely. The penalty for a foreign national entering into a fraudulent marriage to obtain permanent resident status and/or citizenship is a federal felony that carries a mandatory prison sentence of 5 years and a $200,000 fine if convicted. The person would also be subject to prosecution for domestic violence. After the convicted person has served their sentence they will be deported and permanently barred from entry into the U.S.
A valid marriage its a least two years in the U.S. But if you are caught doing that... you will go to jail because its illegal and you are using the person. Marriage should be a love inion not a bussiness.
Can a U.S. company get a visa for a Canadian citizen to work in the US?
Yes, it's called a "Work Visa." It may take a little doing, but it's done all the time. My husband works for a Yacht Co., that is owned by an American in Texas. Sometimes they need specialized people from the States for a certain job on the Yacht and they can come in on a "Work Visa." You need to apply and there is a lot of red tape. This is not for permanent residency.
Can you get a green card if you have a child in the US?
no you will not just because you have had a child in America does not make you a united states citizen you will still be on a green card because you were not born in the united states obviously that's why you have a green card and your child is a united states citizen because he/she was born here in the united states and it would be the same for you if you were you born here legally and if your child was born where ever you are from your child would need a green card also and you might want to check with your local court house to see what they say
Having a child with and/or marrying a U.S. citizen does not automatically confer citizenship to a foreign national. The person must apply under the prescribed procedure designated by the U.S. immigration laws.
Yes you can.
Will debt affect UK to US immigration?
Definitely. The ability to support yourself when you are in the US on a visa is one of the most important and basic requirements for a visa. The USCIS makes sure that the applicant does in no way become a public charge to the country.
if you didnt know the illegal alien was there illegally, then none, and it is as simple as that. It would be the illegal alien that would be in trouble.
How do you marry an asylum seeker in the UK?
Provided you are BOTH 'lawfully present' in the UK - meaning you're BOTH entitled to be here - then there's nothing stopping you from marrying each other. You would go through the same process as anyone else wanting to get married.
