You Deserve Safety and a Path Forward
VAWA allows abused spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens or permanent residents to self-petition for immigration status — without the abuser’s knowledge or involvement. At Yesildal Law, we handle every case with the utmost confidentiality and compassion.
Who Qualifies Under VAWA?
VAWA protections are available to abused spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. You may qualify regardless of your current immigration status or whether you have reported the abuse to law enforcement.
The Self-Petition Process (Form I-360)
VAWA self-petitioners file Form I-360 directly with USCIS, without notifying the abuser. The application requires evidence of the qualifying relationship, shared residence, and abuse. Our team guides you through every step with care and discretion.
Protections & Benefits Available
Approved VAWA petitioners may be eligible for work authorization, public benefits, and a path to lawful permanent residence. We help you understand every protection and benefit available to you under the law
