I'm facing a citizenship application. My hearing is scheduled for December, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,350. 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 $2,350 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $1,700
• Certified translations and document copies: $160
• Filing and biometrics fees: $490
Glad we found this place.

Hope things get better soon, Prakash. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Stay strong, Prakash. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Sacramento.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Granada.
