They do not give back fees

No, you won't get your fees back.

 

But fees and the N400 are the least of your worries. Take care of yourself first. Get away from him so you're safe, then call the cops.

You can cancel the N-400 by sending a letter to USCIS with your relevant information.  Your fee will not be returned.  You paid for USCIS to process the application which occurred when USCIS received and open your package.

 

Since you have a 10 years green card, you can just leave him.  There is no way for him to screw with your GC.  Get yourself to a safe place.

 

Best of luck.

Thanks for every body, thank you, yes i need to save my life, i'm not going to allow him anymore to enjoy attacking me and hit me , he can hit somebody out side the house if he can, i will leave as soon as possible, the N-400 can wait  and no problem if  i'm not getting the fee back,

Why would you cancel it? If anything the citizenship will make you more secure not less. It has nothing to do with your abusive husband. It's your case and you should get it approved. 

 

Contact domestic violence hotlines. Contact the police immediately, especially if he gets violent. There are shelters for victims of domestic violence.  Do not wait another day - get to a safe place ASAP.
