    Depending on the gravity and size of your operation/scheme. If you had one victim ie; your poor grandma, that does not want to see you in jail; maybe not much if any time. If you had multiple victims, high dollar amounts, fake ID’s, forged complete checks, and so on.

    You can/will be looking at a LOT of State/Fed time, restitution, and the difficulty of once all this is behind you of finding gainful employment.

    You need a Lawyer, doubtful if he/she will take a check.

    Best of Luck,

    A lawyer maybe able to help you avoid prosecution/or a lesser charge by setting up a payment plan to pay back the money, debts and fees. Seek legal advice, at least the free consultation.

    6000.00, I am sure can be agreed to be a lot.
