Asylum application: Keith needs $2,100 before the deadline

An asylum application deadline is approaching and Keith can't afford the lawyer.

Keith is facing an asylum application. The hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,100. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Keith has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the London Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Keith could lose the right to stay with the family and the job. The children were born here and this is the only home they know. The money goes to the immigration attorney's trust account and the court filing office. I'll upload receipts with sensitive details removed. Where the $2,100 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,150 • Filing and biometrics fees: $770 • Certified translations and document copies: $140 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $40 If you're reading this, thank you.

    Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of London

      Keep going, Aiden. Shared it with a few friends.

      • Sergio Tommaso Martinelli

        keep going, Aiden. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
