I'm facing a wage-theft claim. My hearing is scheduled for June, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,700. 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 Saint-Denis 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 $2,700 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $1,750
• Filing and biometrics fees: $520
• Certified translations and document copies: $220
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $210
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you, Anaïs. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings!
