Temporary workers performing other services or labor of a temporary or seasonal nature must apply for an H-2B visa in order to enter the United States for their work purposes. These temporary workers are separate and distinct from workers in specialty occupations, Free Trade Agreement professionals, temporary agricultural workers, and trainees.
H-2B visas are specifically for temporary workers performing other services or labor of a temporary or seasonal nature that are coming to the U.S. to work in a non-agricultural occupation. These visas are limited to certain countries only, as designated by the Secretary of Homeland Security.
There are strict qualifications that must be met to determine whether a temporary worker performing other services or labor of a temporary or seasonal nature may be allowed to apply for an H-2B visa. These qualifying factors include:
In addition, H-2B visas for temporary workers performing other services or labor or a temporary or seasonal nature may only stay in the U.S. on their H-2B visa for a certain period of time. They may extend their visa for increments of 1 year, not to exceed 3 years total of temporary work time in the United States. After 3 years, the temporary foreign worker must return to his or her home country for a minimum of 3 months before reentering the U.S.
Because there are many qualifications that must be met in order to obtain an H-2B visa and the circumstances may vary for each individual, it would be wise for any temporary worker performing other services or labor of a temporary or seasonal nature to seek the council of a U.S. immigration attorney. An immigration attorney can help you determine if your work is eligible for an H-2B visa and he or she will work with you and your prospective employer to file all necessary documents and evidence for your H-2B visa application.
