I'm facing a wage-theft claim. My hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $400. 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 Vadodara 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 $400 goes: • Attorney retainer: $270 • Filing and biometrics fees: $60 • Certified translations and document copies: $35 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $35 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Jakarta.

    • rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

      • hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Vadodara.

        • Thinking of you, Keerthana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.

          • Thanks for sharing this, Keerthana. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Liverpool so I could bring a meal. All the best.
