VAWA (Violence Against Women Act Self-Petition)
Protection, Dignity, and a Path Forward
You deserve safety and a fresh start- let’s see if VAWA can help you today.
You deserve safety and a future free from abuse. We are here to help you take
the next step with confidence.
No one should have to choose between staying in an abusive relationship and losing their
immigration status. VAWA allows certain abused spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens
or lawful permanent residents to self-petition for immigration protection, confidentially,
independently, and without needing the abusive family member's knowledge or cooperation.
At NeoVita Law Group, we handle VAWA cases with the sensitivity, discretion, and compassion
they require. We understand the courage it takes to come forward, and we are committed to
providing a safe and supportive environment where your story is heard and your case is handled
with the utmost care and professionalism.
Why Choose NeoVita:
We handle every VAWA case with complete confidentiality and compassion. We guide you
through the self-petition process clearly, without adding unnecessary stress. We are committed to
your safety and dignity throughout every step.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Who can file a VAWA self-petition?
Abused spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens, and abused spouses and children of lawful permanent residents, may self-petition under VAWA.
Does the abuser need to know I filed?
No. VAWA petitions are kept strictly confidential. USCIS will not contact or notify the abusive family member.
What evidence do I need?
Evidence of the qualifying relationship, proof of shared residence, good moral character, and evidence of abuse, which can include personal declarations, police reports, medical records, or statements from witnesses.
What happens after I file?
If approved, you may receive a Notice of Prima Facie Determination, which can help you access certain public benefits. You may also apply for deferred action or, ultimately, lawful permanent residence.
Do I need to be female to qualify?
No. Despite its name, VAWA protections apply to individuals of any gender.
