    You could worry about her being sent back to her native country, ( penalty) or having to return them to request proper paper work to enter the US.

    You need an immigration attorney at this point to help you try and get her a valid visa to be in the US to start

    You say she is illegal in the US; how so? Where is she from and how did she enter the US? Did she use a valid visa and overstay? Has anything ever been filed for her before?
