Regularizing
Process of granting provisional citizenship to irregular immigrants, by granting some form of legal status for illegal immigrants already in the country. These benefits are used to disincentivize structured immigration, since this is a much more efficient way to circumvent a broken system. Benefits can be in the form of full amnesty, immunity from deportation, full work and welfare benefits, and citizenship for anyone resident who prefers this country to their country of origin.
