On facts, you will be eligible to apply for settlement being a victim of domestic violence. To apply for such status, what you need is evidence that you had suffered domestic abuse before your break-up (or after). You do not need B1 English test and Life in the UK certificate. You can also apply for fee waiver in the case of financial difficulty.

In many countries, including the UK, there are provisions that allow victims of domestic abuse who were on a spousal visa to apply for an extension or settlement, even if the marriage has ended.
For example, in the UK, if you were on a spouse visa and your relationship broke down due to domestic abuse, you may be eligible to apply for indefinite leave to remain (ILR) under the domestic violence rule. This allows victims of domestic abuse to remain in the country independently of their abusive partner, even after divorce.
The process typically involves providing evidence of domestic abuse, such as police reports, medical records, or statements from social services. Each case is assessed individually, so it’s crucial to consult with an immigration lawyer who can guide you through the application process, help you gather the necessary documentation, and increase your chances of a successful application.
