I'm facing a family reunification petition. My hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,050. 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. 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 $3,050 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,900 • Filing and biometrics fees: $830 • Certified translations and document copies: $135 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $185 Thanks for being kind about this. - Consuelo

    Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Gqeberha.
