What Is the Violence Against Women Act?
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides crucial protections for survivors of any gender of domestic violence, and allows them to apply for legal permanent resident status if their spouse is a U.S. Citizen or Legal Permanent Resident. It also forgives certain inadmissibility's, including unlawful entry. Survivors may be eligible to simultaneously file for the green card application with the VAWA petition. A carefully prepared filing is necessary to be successful in this type of case, and our team has extensive experience doing so.
U-Visas
Victims of serious crimes, such as felonious assault, armed robbery, domestic violence, and sexual assault, who report these offenses to the police can apply for a U visa to seek protection in the U.S. While pending, they may even receive a work permit. If they are approved for a U-visa, they can obtain work authorization and temporary status for four years.
Trafficking & T-Visas
Individuals who are victims of human trafficking can petition for T-Visas if they report the crime to the proper authorities and aid in the investigation. Immigrants with T-Visas can obtain work authorization and temporary status for themselves and their eligible family members, and is a route that eventually leads to a legal permanent residence.
