I-130 Question 14b asks *"Did you gain permanent resident status through marriage to a U.S. Citizen or lawful permanent resident?"* If, since your obtained LPR with an I-360 filing based on VAWA, you were "a battered or abused spouse or child of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident," then you should answer "Yes' If you have any other questions on any of the other forms, such as I-130, I-485, I-864, I-765 or I-131, then please contact my law office.
