Justice shouldn't depend on a bank balance: Volkan's residency renewal
Help Volkan cover the fees of a residency renewal so He can stay with his family.
🇳🇱 Eindhoven, North Brabant, Netherlands1,054 views
I'm facing a residency renewal. My hearing is scheduled for April, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,650. 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 the Eindhoven Community Legal Centre 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 $1,650 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $1,300
• Certified translations and document copies: $240
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $110
If you're reading this, thank you.
