Philadelphia, Pennsylvania H2 Visa Attorney
The H-2 visa allows non-citizen immigrants to enter the United States on a temporary or seasonal basis for various kinds of agricultural and unskilled work. Due to increased security concerns since September 11, 2001, it is essential that you provide accurate, thorough documentation when applying for either an H-2A or H-2B visa. At the Philadelphia law office of Steven P. Barsamian, we help clients prepare all necessary paperwork in application for H-2 visas. Using software that is linked into the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), our office can request up-to-date applications forms and check to see if a visa is oversubscribed. If H2 visas are oversubscribed, our immigration lawyer will work with you to see if there is an alternative visa which will allow you to legally enter the United States.
If you are interested in working in the U.S. on an H2 visa or are an employer interested in hiring non-citizen temporary immigrant workers, contact the law office of Steven P. Barsamian today. We can answer your questions regarding H-2 visas and employment immigration.
Working in the U.S. under the H-2 Visa - Work Permit
The H-2 visa is intended for non-citizen immigrants interested in entering the country to work on a temporary or seasonal basis. The two different kinds of H-2 visa are:
- H-2A: The H-2A visa is intended for agricultural workers who are interested in working in the United States on a temporary basis picking crops or performing other farm labor or agricultural work. According the terms of the H-2A visa, you must already have a job offer from an employer before you can apply for the H-2A visa. Once you obtain the visa, you can stay in the U.S. no longer then 3 years before you must leave.
- H-2B: The H-2B visa is intended for non-citizen immigrant workers interested in performing temporary or seasonal skilled or unskilled work, such as roofing or construction work. In order to apply for the H-2B visa, you must have a job offer from an employer and you must be able to document the job offer at the time of your visa application.
