She needs to go NOW

She is an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT, and as the authorities are aware of this, she can be arrested at any time, and then deported. If that happens, it will be even more problems to get her back. You need to be really worried every time you get a knock on the door. She can be imprisoned if she is found ignoring the authorities.

You have been told she has overstayed, and the longer she now takes to go back, the less likely the authorities will favour the paperwork for her to come back.

Send her off on a 'family' visit to the Phil NOW, and get the paperwork in. It may only take a month to go through.
