Legal fees for Itzel's residency renewal in San Nicolás de los Garza
A residency renewal deadline is approaching and Itzel cannot afford the lawyer.
Anywhere in the world1,542 views
I'm facing a residency renewal. My hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $850. 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 San Nicolás de los Garza Welcome 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 $850 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $520
• Filing and biometrics fees: $210
• Certified translations and document copies: $25
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $95
Thank you for reading my story.
