The Violence Against Women Act allows the abused spouse or child of
a lawful permanent resident or U.S. citizen or the parent of an abused child to file a family preference visa petition
on his or her own behalf without the participation of the abusive spouse or parent.
If you are a victim of domestic violence, you no longer need to depend on your spouse to file your immigration
documents on your behalf. Now there is a special process for you to petition on behalf of yourself: "self-petition".
This is a special law to protect survivors of domestic violence. Do not lose this opportunity to attain
citizenship in the United States. Contact our office for assistance in filing your petition.
