Hell No.

That's way too high. I hired one at 800 and thought that that was a bit extreme but I wanted one for a peace of mind for myself and my parents.

People here are doing it on their own and some have gotten their notifications already. Of course, if there's an issue with your case I would recommend another lawyer.

I dont think I would pay that much for a lawyer to get me a GC...

If you can read English, don't have any misdemeanor and have a functional brain, you should be able to do the whole thing by yourself.

Btw, flying oversea isn't the problem, coming back is.

DONT DO IT! Unless money is no good for you. Average lawyers are charging $1000.00 or less but over that is just way too much. About that waiver to travel overseas that is true, if you are accepted you can file for advance parole I-131 which you can have some lawyer fill it for about $200.00. I'm paying $150.00 for everything in CT. Is a center for immigrants with certified lawyers! Good luck

Wow, 2.5 grand to fill out a lousy paper that's easy to understand if you have a general grasp of the English language? Where do I sign up to be a lawyer?
