Ostep's Story

Ostep has followed the legal avenues available to him throughout this process. He is now at a point where professional legal representation is essential to help him navigate the complexity of his case and protect his ability to remain and build his future in the United States.

Following the Law While Seeking a Path Forward

Ostep's loss of work authorization has made it legally impossible for him to obtain employment in the United States. Despite having the education, experience, and desire to work, he has chosen to abide by the law rather than accept employment without authorization.

Ostep has continued pursuing legitimate opportunities in architecture, including internships, and has actually completed an architecture internship.

A Life Built in the United States

Ostep has spent many years building a life in the United States. During that time, he pursued his education, developed professional skills, became part of church communities, and built relationships with people who have come to know and care about him.

His goal is to use the education, experience, and skills he has developed during his years in the United States to build a career in architecture and give back to the country that has been his home for so long.

Calvary Chapel Fellowship

His involvement within the Calvary Chapel fellowship has also been an important part of his life. He has served wherever there was a need, including fellowship, worship, greeting, cleaning, setup and takedown, conferences, and special events.

Why Legal Representation Matters

Ostep's immigration circumstances are complicated and require qualified legal counsel. He needs an attorney who can review the circumstances of his case, evaluate the evidence available to him, and present his position through the appropriate legal process.

Immigration Status

Ostep came to the United States in 2013 on a companion visa associated with his wife's medical provider visa. During the course of their marriage, a green card application was filed, but Ostep's name was subsequently removed from that application.

Ostep was then able to change his immigration status to that of a student and remained in the United States under that status while pursuing his education. He went on to earn his Master's degree in Architecture from the University of Memphis.

Now that Ostep has completed his education, his student status can no longer provide the basis for him to remain in the United States indefinitely. His current immigration circumstances therefore require him to pursue another legal path through the immigration system.

URGENT NEED

Ostep is facing an immigration court hearing on:

NOVEMBER 30, 2026

He has secured an attorney who is willing to represent him, but approximately $13,000 must be placed in escrow for his initial legal defense before work can begin.

$13,000

Your support can help Ostep obtain the legal representation he needs before his hearing.
