外国人签证逾期、非法居留的严重后果

Serious consequences of foreigners' overdue visa and illegal residence

“黑下来”之后，不能在中国享受守法外国人所享受到的正常生活，如：

After overdue, they can not enjoy the normal life in China as others, such as:

1. 不能自由回国; 

Not free to return home

2. 因为不能办理外国人工作许可证，不能享受到合理的薪酬待遇，不能享受到社保医保等福利; 

Because they can't apply for a foreigner's work permit, they can't enjoy reasonable salary, social security, medical insurance and other benefits

3. 因为担心会被周围的群众举报，遇事忍气吞声，不敢理直气壮、正大光明地维护自己正常的合法权益; Because of the fear of being reported by the masses around him, he has to swallow his pride and dare not safeguard his normal legitimate rights and interests in a righteous and aboveboard manner

对待签证逾期、非法居留法律处理的不正确态度:

Incorrect attitude towards legal treatment of overdue visa and illegal residence:

将自己的签证逾期、非法居留视为高度隐私。因为担心会遭到别人举报，不愿意向任何人(包括本国同胞)透露自己的签证逾期、非法居留情况; 

Regard your visa overdue and illegal residence as a high degree of privacy. For fear of being reported by others, they are unwilling to disclose their overdue visa and illegal residence to anyone (including their compatriots)

对待签证逾期、非法居留法律处理的正确态度:

Correct attitude towards legal treatment of overdue visa and illegal residence:

1. 必须及时处理，不能回避、也没法回避——因为早晚要面对这一天。

We must deal with it in time, and we can't and can't avoid it - because we have to face this day sooner or later

2. 既然早晚要处理，还是早处理早好——处罚相对较轻，只需要缴纳少量的罚款，可以不被拘留(5~20天)、强制遣送回国和列入外国人黑名单。

Since we have to deal with it sooner or later, we'd better deal with it sooner-- The punishment is relatively light, requiring only a small amount of fine, no detention (5-20 days), mandatory repatriation and blacklist of foreigners.

3. 但如果晚处理，则处罚较重——罚款高，拘留(5~20天)、强制遣送回国更是无法避免，后果严重。而且因为会被列入外国人黑名单(有了非法行为记录和违法案底)，不仅5年以上没法再次入境，而且移交本国后本国警察部门也会留下不良记录，今后出国将无法取得“无犯罪证明”。However, if the case is handled late, the punishment will be heavier - the fine is high, detention (5-20 days) and compulsory repatriation are unavoidable, and the consequences are serious. Moreover, because they will be included in the blacklist of foreigners (with illegal behavior records and criminal records), they will not be able to re-enter the country for more than five years, and their police departments will also leave bad records after transferring them to their own countries, so they will not be able to obtain "no crime certificate" when going abroad in the future.
