I'm facing a citizenship application. My hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $150. I have been told by three legal-aid offices that their waiting list is longer than my deadline.
I have all of my paperwork ready, and my caseworker at a local immigrant rights clinic has confirmed that my case is valid.
If I miss the deadline I could lose my right to stay with my family and my job. My children were born here and this is the only home they know.
I'll share any non-sensitive updates as the case moves along.
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 $150 goes:
• Certified translations and document copies: $15
• Filing and biometrics fees: $100
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $35
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

good luck, Pari. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Rooting for you, Pari. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
shared it with a few friends. After 6 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Zagazig.
Hope it all works out, Pari. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Hồ Chí Minh City donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
You're not alone, Pari. It takes guts to ask. Well done!
Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Sandton!
I hope things turn around soon. After 19 years in public service I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
