In today's video, we delve into the ins and outs of H2B visa requirements. H2B visas are essential for industries like landscaping and seasonal resorts, such as ski resorts. The primary criterion for obtaining an H2B visa is that the labor need must be temporary. For instance, landscaping companies often employ more workers during warmer months than in colder seasons.

Most landscapers bring in their H2B workers around April 1st, and they typically stay until the end of fall or the beginning of winter before returning to their home countries, only to repeat the cycle the following year.

Another crucial requirement is demonstrating that there aren't enough qualified American workers available for the job. In 2024, this proof is relatively straightforward, given the shortage of Americans willing to work in roles like landscaping or housekeeping.

Furthermore, employers must ensure that they do not undercut the wages paid to American workers for the same job. The Department of Labor sets the hourly wage for both American workers and H2B visa holders to maintain fairness and prevent exploitation.
