EVIDENCE. You may file your self-petition with any credible relevant evidence of your eligibility. The determination of what evidence is credible and the weight to be given that evidence is within the sole discretion of USCIS; therefore, you are encouraged to provide the following documentation:
1. Evidence of the abuser’s U.S. citizenship or lawful permanent resident status;
2. Marriage and divorce decrees, birth certificates, or other evidence of your legal relationship to the abuser;

  3. One or more documents showing that you and the abuser have resided together, such as employment records, utility receipts, school records, hospital or medical records, birth certificates of children, mortgages, rental records, insurance policies, or affidavits;
4. Evidence of the abuse, such as reports and affidavits from police, judges and other court officials, medical personnel, school officials, clergy, social workers, and other social service agency personnel. If you have an order of protection, or have taken other legal steps to end the abuse, you should submit copies of those court documents;
5. If you are 14 years of age or older, your affidavit of good moral character accompanied by a local police clearance, state-issued criminal background check, or similar report from each locality or state in the United States or abroad where you have resided for six or more months during the 3-year period immediately before the filing of your self-petition; and
6. If you are a spouse, submit evidence showing your marriage was entered in good faith, such as proof that one spouse has been listed as the other’s spouse on insurance policies, property leases, properly filed tax forms, or bank statements. You may also submit your affidavit or affidavits of others who have knowledge of your courtship, wedding ceremony, shared residence, and other life experiences, if available.
NOTE: A VAWA self-petitioning spouse or child of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, or a VAWA self- petitioning parent of a U.S. citizen son or daughter, may submit any relevant credible evidence in place of the suggested evidence.

how to Request for Exemption for Affidavit of Support I-864? as she is not ready to submit docs

 

is there any way to continue this case without my wife ?

 

 

No. Marriage to a US citizen, in itself, confers no immigration rights.

Your wife had to be on assignment for a US Government Agency and you lived together to qualify.

So you have been married for 6 years? You can't apply via VAWA unless you are in the US. And if you get to the US you will have a 10 year green card instead of 2 year green card.

Why not divorce in India?

 

From a logistical perspective how are you being abused if you are in India and she is not?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Sounds like a Police matter.

 

When was that?

That is a matter for Indian law enforcement to deal with, if you want to pursue it.  USCIS will not care.
