Chloe is facing a work-permit appeal. The hearing is scheduled for September, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,950. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Chloe has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at Fresno Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Chloe 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 $2,950 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,550 • Filing and biometrics fees: $910 • Certified translations and document copies: $280 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $210 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
