Raising Funds for US Lawyer fees- 5 year ban

Hi dear friends! As most of you know, I got accepted into a Master of Art’s Drama therapy program in Seattle, Washington to start 2021. In December 2020 with Selina, I was pulled into USA customs secondary by myself and interrogated for 3 hours by an extremely condescending, rude, and intimidating immigration officer. During our 3 hour tense conversation, he accused me of lying multiple times, accused me of wanting to cross illegally and work illegally and told me he doesn’t care what I have to say. He gave me a 5 year ban and expedited removal as an illegal alien from the United States. I was told I would have to wait one year in Canada and then I will be approved to enter. It has now almost been two years where I have been having to plead my case over and over and go into heavy financial debt to be told there is no guarantee when I can enter the USA again to start a life I have dreamed of. I have to reapply for my school program which I was already accepted for- on scholarship. Life has been chaos in regards to finding places to stay every few months because of my situation; I cannot sign a year lease.  In the next few months, I will recieve a phone call from US immigration where I need to fly to Montreal for an interview for them to determine if I am re-admissible. All on top of extraordinary administration fees I must pay the US…this situation feels impossible.  

I know this is a hard time for everyone and I was hesitant to post this. Please do not feel obligated to contribute and I appreciate your help in anyway. Sending you all love and gratitude. Shilpa xo
