How long can I apply for a green card after a work visa in the United States?

After getting a work visa in the United States, you can start applying for a green card three years later.

Work visa means that applicants and foreigners with non-local nationality apply to the embassy of the host country and are employed by formal institutions certified by the local country. A work visa is a permit to work in a local country. This is a legally binding non-immigrant document. You can submit a work permit application at the embassy or consulate in your area. If necessary, the embassy or consulate will inform the interview. Most applications will be sent to the immigration office for approval. If approved, the Immigration Bureau will send the residence permit to the embassy in China upon completion. When the card arrives at the embassy in China, the embassy will inform you to come to the embassy to get the permit. You can also submit an application directly on the website of the Immigration Bureau.

A green card is an identity card used to prove that foreigners have permanent resident status in the country and belong to foreigners who have neither nationality nor citizenship in the country. Originated in the United States, the official name is "permanent resident card". Other countries follow the American statement and generally call their permanent residence permit a green card.
