From which apprx 6 million of the current 12 million illegals have come from (meaning they came here via some type of visa and have simply never returned back

I don't think your numbers are correct. The Border Patrol apprehends over a million illegals every year crossing the border. At least twice that many get away. These numbers don't inlcude those apprehended at the Ports of entry. I don't know exactly how many illegals crossed during the time parameters of your statistic but I'm sure the number of illegal entries exceed 6 million.

They put the current numbers of illegals at 12 million (apprx of course)...and from those issued visas at one time or another over the past 15-20 years that are speculated for vary valid reasons not to have left (once expired) is around 6 million.

The notion that over twice as many get away yearly as we turn back I don't find accurate -
