You need to make inquires of the country that you intend to visit. If you are here (the US) illegally, you can go anytime, you just can not come back. I am sorry if it sounds sarcastic, but that's the truth. I am the same poster of the very last post. I meant: if you are illegaly in the US, you can go back to your home country anytime you want; you just can not come back. Well, not legally and without hindrance.
