Residency renewal: Raquel needs $850 before the deadline
Help Raquel cover the fees of a residency renewal so She can stay with her family.
🇧🇷 Contagem, Minas Gerais, Brazil1,810 views
I'm facing a residency renewal. My hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $850. 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 Contagem 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 $850 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $510
• Filing and biometrics fees: $200
• Certified translations and document copies: $60
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $80
Thanks for being kind about this.
