Legal fees for Ramesh's citizenship application in Coimbatore

I'm facing a citizenship application. My hearing is scheduled for June, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $600. 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 Coimbatore 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 $600 goes: • Attorney retainer: $440 • Filing and biometrics fees: $110 • Certified translations and document copies: $15 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $35 If you're reading this, thank you.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($241 in total) the plan for certified translations and document copies is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Quick update: $135 raised so far (23%). I made the first payment toward filing and biometrics fees. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
