How people get these jobs

The H-2A visa lets U.S. employers hire foreign workers for temporary agricultural work — planting, harvesting, packing, nursery and greenhouse work, livestock and dairy. The employer, not the worker, starts the process: they must first offer the job to U.S. workers, get the Department of Labor certification shown on this page, and then petition USCIS for the visas.

Every certified opening must be posted publicly on the DOL's official registry, SeasonalJobs.dol.gov — that is the place to search and apply for current openings. Beware of anyone charging workers "visa fees": recruitment fees charged to H-2A workers are illegal.

Positions shown are certified by the DOL (a required step before the employer can request visas); certification is not a guarantee that every position was filled. Wages are the offered rates in the certified applications. See also the USCIS H-2A Employer Data Hub.
