Anthony is facing a work-permit appeal. The hearing is scheduled for April, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Anthony has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Regina Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Anthony 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. 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 $3,650 goes: • Attorney retainer: $2,400 • Filing and biometrics fees: $920 • Certified translations and document copies: $230 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $100 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
