I’d like to know whether a U visa or VAWA would be the better choice. (2)
I was living with my partner, and recently, due to serious domestic violence, I filed a police report. A restraining order was then filed, and we are no longer living together.
In my situation, I’d like to know whether a U visa or VAWA would be the better choice.
After reviewing the case, if it relates to a domestic matter and meets the requirements, we would proceed through VAWA. A U visa, by contrast, is generally considered for crime victims outside of a marital relationship. For an incident that occurred while cohabiting without marriage, a U visa tends to be explored further.
