🇺🇸 Augusta, Georgia, United States6,522 views
I'm facing a work-permit appeal. My hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $4,950. 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 Augusta 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 $4,950 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $3,700
• Filing and biometrics fees: $860
• Certified translations and document copies: $280
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $110
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
