The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) allows victims of domestic violence and abuse who are the noncitizen family members of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to self-petition for immigrant status without the knowledge or consent of the abuser. This law provides an important pathway to safety, independence, and protection from deportation for those who are in abusive situations.
