H-2A Visa

The H-2A visa is a U.S. government program that allows agricultural employers to hire foreign workers for seasonal or temporary farm jobs when there are not enough qualified American workers available. This visa is specifically for non-immigrant workers involved in agriculture, which can include planting, harvesting, and general farm work. Employers must meet specific requirements, such as proving recruitment efforts and providing decent working conditions. The H-2A visa ensures that agricultural industries can meet labor demands while also offering protections to the foreign workers employed under this program.
