El Salvador came next with 540,000, followed by Guatemala with 500,000, and the Philippines and China, each with 290,000.
Koreans made up 2 percent of the undocumented population. Brazil showed the biggest increase of illegal residents, an 89 percent jump, followed by India with 81 percent and Guatemala with 74 percent.
