Haiti - FLASH : The Biden administration announces 35,000 additional H-2B visas 02/04/2022 09:37:27
Thursday, March 31, 2022, in a press release, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the allocation of 35,000 additional H-2B visas, for temporary non-agricultural work, for the period between April 1 and September 30, of which 11,500 for citizens of Haiti, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. These visas "will help support American businesses and expand legal pathways for workers wishing to come to the United States," said Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, adding that the measure responds "“to current demand in the labor market." Shopuld be noted that private companies in the United States recorded the creation of 455,000 jobs in March 2022, particularly in the service sector, but the labor market remains very limited by the shortage of workers, according to the monthly survey from the business services firm ADP published on Wednesday 30 March. The government is granting 23,500 visas to workers who have already received such a visa or otherwise obtained H-2B status in any of the past three fiscal years. The remaining 11,500, exempt from the obligation to return, are reserved for nationals of Haiti, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.
