Legal fees for Eliana's asylum application in Manchester
An asylum application deadline is approaching and Eliana can't afford the lawyer.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom952 views
Eliana is facing an asylum application. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,200. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Eliana has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at a local immigrant rights clinic has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Eliana 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 $2,200 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $570
• Attorney retainer: $1,500
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $130
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
