You will be asked to go through your story. Proof that you have been abused and your life was at risk if you remained in your home country, proof that you tried to seek protection in your home country, proof that you tried to relocate within our home country, etc. Although many women have received asylum based on domestic abuse it can be very difficult to provide enough evidence to satisfy the members. Your lawyer can provide more guidance but I have attached one article.
