Residency renewal: Elena needs $4,150 before the deadline
A residency renewal deadline is approaching and Elena can't afford the lawyer.
🇺🇸 Rockford, Illinois, United States961 views
Elena is facing a residency renewal. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $4,150. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Elena has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Rockford Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Elena could lose the right to stay with the family and the job. The children were born here and this is the only home they know.
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 $4,150 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $3,350
• Filing and biometrics fees: $490
• Certified translations and document copies: $155
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $155
With deep gratitude,
Greyson
