Violence Against Women Act and Immigration Protections

Unfortunately, domestic violence remains a serious problem in , the United States, and throughout the world. For a number of different reasons, immigrants can be especially vulnerable to spousal violence. As an example, an abusive partner may threaten to call immigration enforcement authorities to control an undocumented partner. Alternatively, an abusive spouse/fiancé may threaten to withdraw their support for a green card. In either circumstance, a person’s immigration status is being used against them to further abuse.

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) provides safety, security, and a potential solution for vulnerable immigrants. Under VAWA, victims of domestic abuse have the right to self-petition for a green card even when they might not otherwise be eligible to do so. A VAWA petition can be submitted without the abusive partner’s approval or without them being notified. Notably, VAWA is a gender neutral immigration option. A man has the right to apply for immigration relief through the Violence Against Women Act.
