How long should my personal declaration be ?
For people who have applied for vawa ? how long was your personal declaration?
I have been documenting abuse from my spouse for about a year now in the chance that i might have to file for vawa, and so far I have about 35 pages of several specific abusive incidents documented with date, time and info about the incident.
(March 14th, at approximately 5:30pm *detailed description of incident*
April 4th, at approximately 12noon *detailed description of incident*
etc )
These incidents range from throwing items, insults, slamming doors, denying food, cheating accusations, physical assault and a lot more I can't fit on here.
Is 30 something pages way too long ? how long was yours ? I don't have any means to hire a lawyer right now because I don't have my EAD and no money at all.
I've been talking to a violence center that promised to vouch for me with affidavit, report etc. I also called the police on spouse twice, so I should have two police reports and other evidence.

I will say number of pages doesn't matter, tell your story the way it is and make sure to have enough evidence, pictures if there is any, police report if possible and every evidence as much as you can get. so sorry to hear you going through alot and Goodluck

Mine was 20 pages but I know a person that did 3 pages declaration. It’s not about the quantity but the quality. Good luck!!

the more pages the more loopholes to question the authenticity of the story. straight to the point with proofs.
