Immigration visa after domestic violence

ใน Sweden
อัปเดตล่าสุด: Nov 20, 2025
I have an ongoing police case due to domestic violence and am currently in a skyddad boende provided by Socialtjänst. have a main work visa and my husband has a dependent visa (going through divorce). We work on the same company. The company mentioned getting no involvement other than letting me work from home for a few weeks. I am being affected at work and cannot go to the company for meetings, events, etc. I am in evaluation period and my boss had previously mentioned being satisfied with my performance. Now my work situation is very uncertain. I tried to call Migrationsverket about this but they said they can only help victims of domestic violence in case they have a dependent visa. I need to find a place to stay in a few weeks and my current work situation makes it very difficult, since my visa depends on my work, which depends on me being onsite with my husband. I would like to understand if it is possible to get any support from lawyer to help with my current migration status since the page mentions protection do victims of domestic violence, but it won't cover my case. Thanks in advance, [name removed]

Dear,

Thank you for sharing your situation. I understand how difficult and stressful this must be for you. In Sweden, there are legal resources and support available for victims of domestic violence, even if you have a work visa and not a dependent one. Social services and specialized legal aid centers can help you understand your options regarding your visa, residence, and workplace rights. I recommend contacting a migration lawyer as soon as possible—they can give you specific advice based on your situation and help protect your rights. Organizations like the Swedish Refugee Law Center and Kvinnofridslinjen (Women's Aid Line) can also guide you and connect you with legal support. If you need, I can help you draft an email or message to reach out for help, or we can discuss this further over WhatsApp. Please take care and don’t hesitate to ask for more support.

Best regards,
