🇹🇷 İzmir, Türkiye1,339 views
I'm facing a citizenship application. My hearing is scheduled for April, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $650. 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 İzmir Welcome Centre 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $650 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $490
• Filing and biometrics fees: $135
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $25
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Selin.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. attorney retainer comes first ($490) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
Sending love, Selin. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 35 people at work. Love from Boston.
