Appeal to higher court against DVA dismissal and pursue with 498A.

Re: muslim maintenance

You should pursue your remedy under DVA. If the case has been dismissed by one court, pursue your remedy of Appeal and/or Revision to higher court.

You should be granted maintenance of at least 75,000 per month for yourself and your child.

the social security statement is valuable piece of evidence and should be used to claim maintenance.

You may also inform US Embessy about 498-A pending case.
