🎉 VAWA CANCELLATION OF REMOVAL GRANTED! 🇺🇸⚖️
Pictured here is Attorney Cassandra Harmon following this HUGE win. Cancellation of removal is a highly limited and discretionary form of relief—and even meeting the basic requirements does not guarantee approval.
For VAWA Special Rule Cancellation of Removal, an applicant generally must establish:
✅ Battery or extreme cruelty by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or parent (or qualifying abuse involving the applicant’s child)
✅ At least 3 years of continuous physical presence in the United States
✅ Good moral character during the required period
✅ No disqualifying criminal or immigration grounds
✅ Extreme hardship to the applicant or a qualifying child or parent
✅ That the applicant deserves a favorable exercise of discretion from the Immigration Judge
These cases are especially difficult because eligibility alone is not enough—the applicant must prove the case before an Immigration Judge and ultimately receive a favorable discretionary decision. Federal law also imposes a 4,000-per-fiscal-year numerical cap on covered cancellation of removal and suspension grants.
Today, we are celebrating one of those grants. ❤️ After fighting for the opportunity to remain in the United States, our client’s removal has been cancelled and lawful permanent resident status will be granted. 🇺🇸✨
