In this brief segment, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a viewer’s question about whether filing a VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) petition would negatively impact the petitioner’s spouse’s ability to become a U.S. citizen. She explains that it does not; immigration authorities must keep VAWA filings strictly confidential and cannot disclose the petition to the spouse or use the information against him. The confidentiality safeguards both the petitioner and the spouse, preventing potential retaliation or jeopardizing the spouse’s immigration process in cases of abusive relationships.
