South Florida H-2B Visa Lawyer

Practical Help When Seasonal Hiring or Temporary Work Gets Complicated

Employers across South Florida often need temporary, non-agricultural workers to handle seasonal demand in industries like hospitality, construction, landscaping, or events. Foreign nationals rely on these opportunities to earn income and build valuable experience. But when it comes to the H-2B visa, the process can feel daunting. Strict quotas, fast-moving deadlines, and layers of paperwork stand between you and the employees or job you need.

Our goal is to reduce uncertainty. We manage many moving parts so you can concentrate on your work and life without being overwhelmed by visa technicalities.

Why H-2B Visas Are Often Challenging

There are several possible sticking points in the H-2B visa process. Understanding them helps you avoid delays or denials:

• Quota Limits. The U.S. government caps the number of H-2B visas issued each year. Once the cap is reached, no further approvals occur until the next cycle.
• Labor Certification. Employers must demonstrate that there are insufficient U.S. workers able, willing, qualified, and available to do the temporary job. Mistakes here can lead to rejection.
• Proof of Temporary Status. The worker must show the job is seasonal, intermittent, peak load, or a one-time occurrence. Permanent or long-term jobs do not qualify.
• Employer’s Compliance. Wages, working conditions, housing (if provided), and other obligations must comply with U.S. Department of Labor rules. Failure here can invalidate the petition.
• Timeliness. Missed deadlines, late documents, or incomplete evidence often cause denials or unnecessarily long processing times.

How The Gaston Law Firm, P.A. Responds to These Challenges

When clients come to us, we take steps to minimize risk and maximize the chance of approval:

• We begin by conducting a detailed intake to understand job details, employer obligations, and the worker’s background, ensuring that everything meets H-2B criteria.
• Our team prepares complete and accurate documentation for both the petition and labor department submissions, carefully verifying job classification, wage rates, employer obligations, and proof of temporary need.
• We guide employers on setting wages and working conditions that comply with U.S. law.
• The team gathers strong evidence of worker qualifications, including resumes, prior experience, and any required certifications, to strengthen each case.
• Throughout the process, we keep clients informed of the timeline and any changes in law or policy, and we adjust strategies promptly if challenges arise.

Why Timing Matters

Demand for seasonal workers in South Florida is high, especially in hospitality and tourism. Filing periods open only a few times per year, and quotas fill quickly. Acting early improves the chance of obtaining a visa before the annual cap is reached. Missing deadlines can mean waiting until the next filing season, leaving employers short-staffed and workers without opportunities.
