I'm asking for a friend here. After entering the United States on a student visa, a Nigerian woman later married a permanent resident, divorced during a pending filing, overstayed unintentionally, used incorrect documents for work, and now has a denied asylum claim, a pending VAWA inquiry, and an Notice to Appear. What risks and options exist?

This case combines multiple risk factors that complicate relief eligibility. Prior lawful entry may help, but unauthorized work and overstay raise enforcement concerns. Divorce does not automatically end all marriage-based options. Court strategy matters greatly.

VAWA may still be viable if abuse can be documented properly. A denied asylum claim does not bar other forms of relief. The Notice to Appear places the case before an immigration judge. Some proceedings can be paused while applications are reviewed. Evidence consistency will be critical.

Immediate legal counsel is essential.
