So where is the data showing otherwise?
This is the problem. Show data, claim data is irrelevant, or not accurate and then keep talking the same talking points you were.
Without any additional facts. This is what bothers me.
Multiple sources, report a NET LOSS or NET 0 immigration. Where are the sources claiming otherwise?

Incorrect, and I just proved it to you.
On a yearly basis, more are leaving than coming in, hence the NET LOSS.
You're lying in this thread, and I'm sick of it.

I have 100 pieces of candy.
I piece comes in, two pieces leave.
There is a net loss, yet 99 remains.
If you can't comprehend what NET LOSS means, then butt out of this thread. Adults are speaking here.

With all due respect, it's extremely naive to believe for one minute that numerical statistics on a wiki page represent the reality of illegal immigration.
Oh now!
Government census workers go around to every city in the country, and knock on doors, and ask people if they are 'illegal'.
If so they check a box. Then they scan the results and emails them back where they get stored on a hard drive.
Hope it doesn't crash.

Net immigration from Mexico to the U.S. has stopped and possibly reversed since 2010.

The Homeland Security Department has lost track of more than 1 million people who it knows arrived in the U.S. but who it cannot prove left the country, according to an audit Tuesday that also found the department probably won’t meet its own goals for deploying an entry-exit system.
The government does track arrivals, but is years overdue in setting up a system to track departures — a goal set in a 1996 immigration law and reaffirmed in 2004.
