In this segment, Lorena Rivas, Esq. explains that once a U‑visa holder receives approval, they must wait three years before they are eligible to apply for lawful permanent residence (green card). She notes that the U‑visa approvals currently being processed correspond to applications filed in 2016‑2017, meaning many applicants are just now receiving their approvals and will soon begin the three‑year waiting period. The speaker emphasizes the need to count the three‑year period from the date of U‑visa approval, not from the filing date, and clarifies that the green‑card application can only be submitted after this waiting period.
