Residency renewal: Anil needs $300 before the deadline
Anil needs $300 for filing fees and representation in a residency renewal before the June deadline.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India423 views
I'm facing a residency renewal. My hearing is scheduled for June, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $300. 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 Thane 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 $300 goes:
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $20
• Filing and biometrics fees: $105
• Attorney retainer: $175
Thanks for reading all this.

Take care. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
So sorry you're going through this, Anil. Your post was clear and honest. Take care
Wishing you the best, Anil. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Ludhiana.
You're not alone, Anil. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Thane.
Take care, Anil. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
