The answer above must be old because according to the message boards and my own experience it takes about 2 years in most cases with out any problems. The new increase in funding may speed things up for new applicants but I wouldn't count on it. Because you will be at the bottom of a 16 thousand applicant list for one thousand jobs. It is still worth it though.

How does illegal immigration affect unemployment?
One opinion:
There are an estimated 20 million illegal immigrants in this country. They don't just pick tomatoes anymore. They have started taking over our middle jobs as well. A Mexican came over here from Mexico 9 years ago. It started slowing down. He got laid off a couple months later he gets called back because they wanted someone that could speak to all the Mexican customers in their native language. "Se hablo Espanol" is everywhere. A teen used to be able to get a summer job or after school job at MacDonald's. Go there look around, that job he or she wanted is being filled by a 40 year old Mexican. At the fast food restaurants you will be hard pressed to find a white or black person even at the manager position. We also have these walk in clinics. They fill their jobs with interpreters for those that come in to be seen that can only speak Spanish. It's not only clinics, call on a Realtor, car dealer, dentist or the umpteen times you call anywhere and get the 'press one' to talk to someone in Espanol. (Supplied bu a nonmember user)
Answer:
Many people see immigration as a problem and increases unemployment. This may be a misconception. In places of high unemployment, you would not have any immigrants there simply because of no work. People see the immigrants taking all the blue collar jobs but it simply not the case. They do jobs that the "native" people won't do. These include strawberry picking, rubbish collector, cleaner... The list goes on. So next time you say kick out the immigrants, you go do the dirt work. The cost of such things will go up thanks to no willing people.

Why do illegal immigrants come to the US?
Many illegal immigrants come to America for freedom and oppurtunities. Not all countries are fair like the U.S. Many countries keep their citizens poor in order to control them.
AnswerThat is very true. On average, it costs about $15,000 to become a citizen of America, not counting all of the hidden fees and monthly fees and immigrant would have to pay after becoming a citizen. If people from other countries were never exposed to so much money, becoming a citizen would not be an option and the leaders of these countries would be able to keep them controlled.ANSWER
