The Housing Rights Website (jointly published by the Chartered Institute of Housing and BME National)
Illegal entrant and overstayer: These terms both refer to a person who requires leave to be lawfully present in the UK but who does not have it and s/he has not been granted temporary admission. An illegal entrant is someone who entered the UK before being granted leave and an overstayer is someone who was granted limited leave but which has since expired.
