Legal fees for Nora's residency renewal in Macon
Nora needs $2,200 for filing fees and representation in a residency renewal before the February deadline.
🇺🇸 Macon, Georgia, United States1,412 views
I'm facing a residency renewal. My hearing is scheduled for February, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,200. 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 Macon 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $2,200 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $1,250
• Filing and biometrics fees: $610
• Certified translations and document copies: $140
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $200
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Praying for you, Nora. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from London
Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Medan.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nora
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. attorney retainer comes first ($1,250) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.
Thinking of you and your family, Nora. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.

sending love, Nora. This could happen to any of us. After 30 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Rochester.
Hang in there, Nora. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in New Orleans donated after I showed her your page.
Hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Macon
