Arranging H-2B Visas for U.S. employers and international seasonal staff takes approximately 4-5 months from the initial application to the arrival of the employee in the U.S.

Employers should:

Step 1

Complete the obligation-free register with h2b Jamaica by complteing an application  in full. An account manager will contact you about the rest of the process. H2B Jamaica  will forward employee applications for your review and choose those that meet your requirements.

H-2B Visa USA does all the rest, including:

Step 3

Applying for the Department of Labor Certification on your behalf. As required by law, advertisements are placed in your local daily newspaper to prove that there is a shortage of American workers in your area.

Step 4

Having each employee sign an Employment Agreement once the Department of Labor certification is received.

Step 5

Submitting the H-2B petition to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and notifying both the employer and employee once a decision has been made.

Step 6

Helping employees apply for the H-2B Visa at the U.S. Consulate in their home country and helping them arrange transportation to the U.S. to start work for you.
