Technically someone who enters the country illegally isn't an immigrant at all. Immigration is the legal process which one goes through to gain residency in a given country. Since these people haven't gone through the process they are in no way immigrants.
I prefer the term "trespassers."

I prefer the term "trespassers." Illegal Alien is the proper term.

Well, there is the old term that seems to have fallen out of usage: Illegal Alien. I remember a time, not so very long ago, when "illegal alien" was used to refer to folks who entered the country illegally.
