Help Vivaan with citizenship application filing and attorney fees
A citizenship application deadline is approaching and Vivaan can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇳 India1,329 views
Vivaan is facing a citizenship application. The hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $400. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Vivaan has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Pune Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Vivaan 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 $400 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $300
• Filing and biometrics fees: $50
• Certified translations and document copies: $30
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $20
Thanks for being kind about this.
