❓ What’s the Difference Between an H-2B Visa and an H-2A Visa? 🤔

Both H-2B and H-2A visas are temporary work visas, but they serve different industries and have unique requirements.

✅ H-2B Visa (Non-Agricultural Workers)

👷‍♂️ Covers seasonal or temporary jobs in industries like landscaping, hospitality, construction, seafood processing, and trucking.

📅 Annual Cap: 66,000 visas per year.

🌎 Open to workers from specific eligible countries.

✅ H-2A Visa (Agricultural Workers)

🌾 Covers temporary or seasonal agricultural work (such as fruit picking, farm labor, and planting) 🍎🚜🌿

📅 No annual cap! (Employers can apply as long as they meet the requirements)

🌎 Open to a broader range of countries, and housing & transportation must be provided to workers.

💡 Key Takeaway:

H-2B = Non-agriculture jobs

H-2A = Agriculture jobs
