Justice shouldn't depend on a bank balance: Quinn's work-permit appeal
Help Quinn cover the fees of a work-permit appeal so She can stay with her family.
🇺🇸 Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States812 views
I'm facing a work-permit appeal. My hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $700. 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 $700 goes:
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $260
• Certified translations and document copies: $75
• Filing and biometrics fees: $365
Thanks for reading all this.

Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Uppsala so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Colorado Springs.
