MoreH-2A visas provide “temporary, seasonal” agricultural workers with a legal means of entry into the United States. Workers who hold these visas may remain in the country for up to 365 days. In order to obtain an H-2A visa, a prospective agricultural worker must furnish a standing job offer from a qualifying American employer. In turn, this employer must adhere to several stringent requirements. Crucially, the sponsoring firm must show that it is unable to find qualified American workers to perform the agricultural tasks described by the H-2A visa.
