Frequently Asked Questions
What is a VAWA self-petition and can I file without my abuser knowing?+
The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) allows abused spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens or green card holders to file Form I-360 to self-petition for immigration relief — without their abuser's knowledge or involvement. USCIS handles these petitions with strict confidentiality. Asal Multi Services provides a safe, private environment to discuss and prepare your VAWA petition.
What evidence do I need to prove abuse for a VAWA I-360 petition?+
USCIS accepts many types of evidence of abuse including police reports, protective orders, medical records, photographs of injuries, emails or text messages showing threatening behavior, affidavits from witnesses, and your own personal statement. You do not need to have filed criminal charges — any credible evidence of battery or extreme cruelty is acceptable.
Is there a filing fee for Form I-360 VAWA cases?+
VAWA self-petitioners are typically eligible for a fee waiver using Form I-912. If granted, there is no cost to file Form I-360. For non-VAWA I-360 categories, the filing fee is $515. Asal Multi Services can help you apply for a fee waiver if you qualify.
What happens after my I-360 VAWA petition is approved?+
After USCIS approves your I-360 VAWA petition, you may be eligible to file Form I-485 to adjust your status to lawful permanent resident (green card), apply for work authorization (I-765), and apply for a travel document (I-131). Asal Multi Services can walk you through the full path to permanent residence after your petition is approved.
