🇺🇸 United States2,167 views
Thomas is facing a residency renewal. The hearing is scheduled for March, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,500. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Thomas has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at Tallahassee Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Thomas 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $3,500 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,650
• Filing and biometrics fees: $630
• Certified translations and document copies: $80
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $140
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Tallahassee
