H2B
H2B is a non-immigrant visa program in the United States that allows U.S. employers to hire foreign workers for temporary or seasonal jobs. This program is particularly beneficial for industries that experience labor shortages, such as agriculture, hospitality, and construction. The H2B visa is typically granted for a specific period, usually up to one year, and can be extended under certain conditions.
To qualify for an H2B visa, employers must demonstrate that there are not enough qualified U.S. workers available for the job and that hiring foreign workers will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of U.S. employees. The program is regulated by the U.S. Department of Labor and requires employers to follow specific application procedures.
