I'm facing a family reunification petition. My hearing is scheduled for July, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $800. 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 $800 goes: • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $55 • Certified translations and document copies: $60 • Filing and biometrics fees: $685 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Giulia

Updates from Giulia

  1. Quick update: $325 raised so far (41%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($285 in total) I met with the attorney and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
