Hell if I know...

Would this require incarceration or a trial? One would think an administrative process would be enough. No proof of being here legally with supporting documents, back to the other side of the fence. Granted it would be a major task and certainly there would be challenges that would require more scrutiny, investigation, and possible trial, but I think the majority would be of a type that would be fairly simple to figure out.
Regardless of this legislation we still need to get a handle on the ease of entry into the nation and the threat that poses to the nation.
...I've been told I don't get it, that these people are illegals and that I don't understand that the word illegal and criminal are synonymous, so, I'm willing to look at it that way.
I've been told they that, the illegals, by there very presence, are messing up, ruining, the country; creating an unlevel playing field for jobs, sucking social services dry, plaguing health services.
So, it would seem natural that these folks, in order to fix these problems, need to be off the streets and deported. Right?
The problem exists because nothing has been done about it for a decade and it will take a huge amount of money and people to deal with this new task, administrative or not because, presumably, everyone who already deals with this can't handle it, or they would have.
I mean, if we do some administrative thing, we're looking at getting some paperwork squared away and them staying, thus the problems stay. Right?
I haven't heard anyone say they should all stay and just get some paperwork taken care of because that would be rewarding criminal behavior.
As far as;

...that goes, we simply need to treat them the same way we have a handle on illegal drugs and, viola, like illegal drugs, no more problem. Right?
So, let's get going. Set up our administrative or whatever system. We need to get some adds in the paper, hire people, open offices, get the chain organized and moving. We need to process 27,000 people a day, excluding new immigrants, to get this done in a year, so, times a wasting.
While we're at it, we need an army on the border. 2,000 miles and whatever resources, that we don't have now, to cover that much ground effectively.
