Help Me Stay Legal and Avoid Deportation Due to Unannounced Fee Hike

My name is Elianny. I’m reaching out for urgent help to cover unexpected legal fees after a sudden and unannounced fee increase for my residency extension. The new fee went into effect on September 1st without prior notice or online publication. I now have an appointment in the first week of October and must pay $4,300 by then to avoid becoming illegal.

If I am unable to pay, I risk having my passport taken away, being arrested, and facing deportation—something I’ve worked hard to avoid. I didn’t have the savings to prepare for this sudden change, so I am organizing fundraising events and accepting donations.

Any amount, no matter how small, will help me stay legal and continue living my life without fear of deportation. Thank you for your kindness and support!
