There is a difference between legal & illegal immigrants. I was talking about legal ones & made no mention of illegal immigration. It sounds like you might be saying that legal immigrants become illegal after some period of time? If that’s true in your country, that’s fine.

I’m not saying my country does it better btw.
In your scenario, the parents lived in the country all that time without becoming citizens, so were there illegally.
