What Is H-2A?
The H-2A visa lets U.S. agricultural employers hire foreign workers for temporary or seasonal farm and ranch jobs when qualified U.S. workers are not available. There is no annual numerical cap. Workers are commonly authorized for seasonal stays of up to about 10 months, and employers must meet AEWR wage rules and provide free compliant housing.
Family-owned Head Honchos, based in San Antonio, Texas, has helped employers across the contiguous USA for 27 years—pairing seasonal labor supply with full H-2A filings. Learn the step-by-step process, cost categories, employer requirements, and compliance support.

H-2A FAQs
H-2A is a temporary agricultural work visa that lets U.S. employers hire foreign workers for seasonal or temporary farm and ranch jobs when qualified U.S. workers are not available.
H-2A employment is tied to a temporary need. In practice, workers are commonly authorized for seasonal stays of up to about 10 months, depending on the approved period of need.
No. The H-2A program does not have an annual numerical visa cap.
Employers generally must pay at least the Adverse Effect Wage Rate (AEWR) or another applicable required wage for the work and location, whichever is highest under the rules.
Yes. H-2A employers must provide housing that meets applicable standards at no cost to the workers, along with other transportation and employment conditions required by the program.
Plan on roughly a 90–120 day window before workers are needed. Starting early helps cover certification, recruitment, petition, and consular timing.
