K & J

After reading all the posts, I am ready to give my "expert" opinion. I work for Legal Aid and I interview people who want our free services. They usually embellish their stories and part of my job is to get the truth our of them. Even though we are here to help them, they know that they are more likely to get the help is their story is appealing, even though they are actually creating a disservice to them by lying to us. The original poster is is the same situation.
The poster first said that the marriage was a "secret" and that husband did not want his CO to know about it. However, poster has military ID which means that husband did fill out the proper forms and has official told the Navy about wife.
Poster was been arrested twice, it seems for domestic violence. The police will not arrest some without some evidence, specially TWICE. Husband had to have scratches at least.
Poster claims that the whole world is against her and that her husband has this unbelievable power to convince everybody (the police, his CO, the doctor, the lawyer, etc.).
And her "I do/did not not enough English" excuse for nobody believing her is BS.
What does poster want really want? If she is so scare of husband, she can call the local shelter and her problems are solved. Well, at least the abuse problem. If all she wants is the green card VAWA is her best option. But don't sugar coat your story because you are doing yourself more harm than good.
I believe the truth is in the middle.

DO NOT SETTLE FOR A MUTUAL RESTRAINING ORDER. I will be used against you in the future. Her only was to stay in the US is by AOS through you. You have no saying on whether she gets a work visa or not. Also, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONTACT HER. It will be used against you at the TPO hearing. Any communication should be between the attorneys. If she calls, tell her to contact your attorney and hang up.

You have an attitude and that is not going to help you at the interview. People here are asking questions because they are trying to help you, not because they are being judgmental. They are preparing you for cross-examination, for the tough questions.
The fact that you sent money to your husband is good (the other way would have been bad).
Also, I do not know why you keep saying your husband dresses nicely. Are you trying to imply that he has a good socio-economic status and therefore does not need to immigrate to the USA for money? Showing the Embassy that you do not need to come to the USA to succeed financially is always a good thing (because that means you are moving to the USA for love, obviously). But dressing nicely does not do the trick. Bluntly put, Peru is a very "classist" (not racist) country. There are basically 3 questions to determine if you belong to class A or B (it might not be PC but it is reality in Peru, so much, that all polls give their results based on classes): 1) What is your last name, 2) What school/college did you attend, 3) Where do you live (district). Those 3 simple questions are the ones that will give you a tourist visa. The Embassy knows that the people with the right answers are not going to stay in the US illegally.
I know that your application is for a spouse visa. But if your husband ever had a valid tourist visa, then most red flags will turn orange.

You may not have problems with immigration but eventually your mother could face fraud charges regarding the Food Stamps: IPV (intentional program violation). I work for Legal Aid and I handle the Food Stamps and Medicaid cases. If your mother faces and IPV, she (and your minor daughter) will be responsible to pay back any benefits that were fraudulently given to them. Don't worry about the criminal charges since they are rarely pursue. But usually, local FS agencies eventually find out.
