Domestic Violence

Victims of domestic violence and crime are some of the most vulnerable population of immigrants without status. Whether it’s because they are unaware of their rights, or because they are afraid of being deported for calling the police, these victims need to know protections exist.

The VAWA and U visa processes were designed to assist victims of domestic violence and crime. VAWA is for spouses, children, and parents of United States citizens as well as for spouses and children of Legal Permanent Residents. The U visa was created to help victims of crime, requiring only that victims report the crime to the police and cooperate with the investigation.
