I'm facing a wage-theft claim. My hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $750. 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 the Kasarani Community Legal 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 $750 goes: • Attorney retainer: $590 • Filing and biometrics fees: $80 • Certified translations and document copies: $25 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $55 If you're reading this, thank you.

        Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nafula!

        • Sure. The biggest one is attorney retainer, $590. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.

      • Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Latina

        • Hope it all works out, Nafula. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
