Legal fees for Florence's asylum application in Kasarani
An asylum application deadline is approaching and Florence can't afford the lawyer.
Anywhere in the world901 views
I'm facing an asylum application. My hearing is scheduled for June, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $350. 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $350 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $115
• Certified translations and document copies: $35
• Attorney retainer: $200
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
