The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides vital immigration protections for victims of domestic violence, abuse, or extreme cruelty. At Wu Law group, our Attorneys stand with survivors, offering compassionate, confidential, and skilled legal representation to help them secure independence and lawful immigration status in the United States.
VAWA allows certain immigrants who have suffered abuse by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident family member to self-petition for lawful status without the abuser’s knowledge or consent. This ensures that survivors are not forced to rely on their abusers for immigration benefits.
You may qualify for a VAWA self-petition if you are:
The spouse of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident who has subjected you to abuse or extreme cruelty
The child (under 21) of an abusive U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident parent
The parent of a U.S. citizen child (21 or older) who has committed abuse
Ability to apply for work authorization and live independently
Pathway to lawful permanent residency (green card)
Confidential filing – your abuser will not be notified of your application
Protection from deportation while your case is pending
