Neelam is facing a citizenship application. The hearing is scheduled for March, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $610. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Neelam has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at Aurangabad Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Neelam 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 $610 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $440
• Filing and biometrics fees: $135
• Certified translations and document copies: $30
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $5
Glad we found this place.

thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Austin
what's already covered and what's the $610 for?
Sure. The biggest one is attorney retainer, $440. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.
Hope this works out for you. Love from Kathmandu!
Hang in there, Amit. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Aurangabad.
Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
So sorry you're going through this, Amit. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
