They will approve your vawa considering several things, and it's not mandatory to have a restraining order against him, but it will help if you have a police report letter from the shelter, hospital record.

You can apply for public benefits with the prima facie, your kids and you will be able to get food stamp and medicaid,but MA they don't use to give cash assistance with prima facie.Join us in the thread Vawa 3...

YOu just can get EAD if you file form I-485 ,they can't issue EAD without a pending form I-485 or form I-360 approved, but keep in mind if Vawa unit deny your form I-360 they won't initiate removal proceedings, but if you submit form I-485 and they deny your vawa they will initiate removal proceedings, then you need to thing what you want and go for it.If you need to work then you must file I-485 now if you are not in removal proceedings of course.
