We offer world class communication and responsiveness to all of our clients and our comprehensive approach can simplify even the most complicated of visa programs.
The H-2A program is designed for agricultural workers, and some meat-producing companies do qualify. H-2A visas can be used to hire foreign workers for herding and production of livestock and other jobs. One challenge with the H-2A visa is that it is designed for temporary seasonal work, such as harvest season. Employees can stay in the U.S. for one to ten months, though extensions are possible. In meat processing, the need for labor is year-round, which is why calls have been made to change the program to allow for modifications that would allow meat producers to retain workers and not just hire them seasonally.
In addition to the application process, keep in mind that most H-2A employers are audited by the Department of Labor Wage & Hour Division at some point. Farmer Law has experience helping companies with the audit process and we can work with you to stay compliant. If you need one-stop H-2A visa consultants dedicated to helping your company, contact Farmer Law for a consultation to find out how we can help in your specific situation.
