Can you apply for a work permit if you are applying for a U Visa?

Greetings Jorge Rivera, immigration attorney.

Dn English and Spanish-language media are reporting that President Biden's administration plans to authorize the work permit while people wait for a U Visa.
From this news, we know that it will change the whole picture for people applying for the U Visa.

U Visa: Future Immigration Changes

Currently, the U Visa is the most time-consuming process at Immigration. Unlike others, it takes almost five years before Immigration approves the case. This happens because there are only 10,000 visas available per year and more than 40,000 people waiting. This means that, Immigration would not give you a work permit until you had at least preliminary U Visa approval.

However, now Immigration announces, which is what we are anticipating from different media reports, that they will give you a work permit while you wait for the U Visathat is, during those almost five years.

This update will change the tens of thousands of immigrant people in the world.In turn, it will be an incentive for people to start applying for the U-Visa. Why? Because the main reason people think twice about applying is the 5 year wait.

With this new announcement, people will have not only protection against deportation, not only legal stay, but also: a work permit, driver's license and social security number.
