I'm facing a family reunification petition. My hearing is scheduled for December, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $550. 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $550 goes:
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $25
• Certified translations and document copies: $30
• Attorney retainer: $495
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
