Help Seul-gi with citizenship application filing and attorney fees
Seul-gi needs $3,100 for filing fees and representation in a citizenship application before the January deadline.
🇺🇸 Tallahassee, Florida, United States4,883 views
Seul-gi is facing a citizenship application. The hearing is scheduled for January, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,100. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Seul-gi has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Tallahassee Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Seul-gi 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 $3,100 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,200
• Filing and biometrics fees: $530
• Certified translations and document copies: $100
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $270
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you the best, Joon-woo. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together
I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Tallahassee.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Houston so I could bring a meal. Greetings from El Paso.
