VAWA for Men: Can I File for VAWA if I’m a Man?
Description
An immigrant husband of a U.S. citizen or green card holder can be in a vulnerable position having to rely on his wife to apply for his work permit and green card. Sometimes, wives use their legal status as leverage to wield power and control over their husbands. Abusive relationships often conjure the image of a man as the abuser, making it harder to recognize that men can also be subjected to abuse. When immigration status becomes a factor, the complexity of the situation intensifies, and feelings of hopelessness can take hold. In this article we will discuss the intricacies of VAWA, and specially of VAWA for Men: how to recognize the signs of abuse and how to reach out and file a petition.
