You are the victim of spousal abuse. The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) will allow you to apply for a green card without your abusive spouse petitioning for you. This process exists so that non-citizens will not have to be dependent on an abusive spouse, in order to stay in the U.S.

Father has standard visitation supervised (grandma supervises) He just started it but grandma says they want the summer vacation. My child is 2 and so young and has never been away from me really (doesn’t even attend daycare) do I have to give her up weeks out of summer?

Trapped in Motel 6 for going on 2 years because Ok laws have made it illegal for SOs to live practically anywhere. I need to prove that my new home will not be within, say, 2000 ft of a park, and have no unassailable authority for map info from which to make my case.

Talk to your local police department and ask if they have a map.
