US - Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to Make Additional 22,000 Temporary, Non-Agricultural Worker Visas Available

As the nation’s economy continues to reopen safely, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is taking action to ensure that American businesses are equipped with the resources needed to recover successfully and contribute to the economic health of local communities. 

In light of increased labor demands, DHS is announcing a supplemental increase of 22,000 visas for the H-2B Temporary Non-Agricultural Worker program. 

The additional visas will be made available in the coming months via a temporary final rule in the Federal Register.
