uh, you aren't including the attorney fees necessary to fight deportation once your 'illegal' status becomes known to the INS. If you turn yourself in as overstaying your visa, and therefore illegal, you'd better have yourself a good attorney by your side. If the INS decides to play hardball it could cost you thousands of dollars.
