You can self-petition under VAWA without your spouse’s knowledge or support

USCIS protects victims of battery or extreme cruelty by U.S. citizens or residents.

You must submit evidence like police reports, therapy notes, or witness statements

Approved VAWA petitions lead to work permits and eventually Green Cards

You may still be eligible for a Green Card through VAWA, which protects abused spouses of U.S. citizens. You can self-petition without their knowledge or consent.
