Evelyn needs $2,700 for filing fees and representation in a work-permit appeal before the June deadline.
🇺🇸 United States709 views
Evelyn is facing a work-permit appeal. The hearing is scheduled for June, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,700. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Evelyn has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at a local immigrant rights clinic has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Evelyn 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 $2,700 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,100
• Filing and biometrics fees: $350
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $250
Thank you so much.
