Staying married to your abusive spouse will not disqualify you from applying for the VAWA green card. There are many reasons why people choose to stay married to their abuser. There is no rule that requires you to get divorced or separated. However, if you do fear for your life and your safety is at issue, please consider getting the help you need.
