🇮🇳 Thane, Maharashtra, India1,455 views
Varun is facing an asylum application. The hearing is scheduled for April, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $250. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Varun has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Thane Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Varun 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 $250 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $185
• Certified translations and document copies: $45
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $20
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 Varun
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. attorney retainer comes first ($185) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
Wishing you peace. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Bucaramanga.
stay strong, Naveen. I hope things turn around soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Thane.
Sending strength, Naveen. Shared this with my family.
