May 23, 2012 (1 min read)

"In a continued effort to assist H-2A employers with preparing their agricultural job orders and applications, the Department has revised the H-2A Filing Tips to alert employers to common filing mistakes which can delay the processing of an H-2A application. The H-2A Filing Tips may be found on the H-2A program page under Factsheets and Filing Tips. Also posted on the H-2A program page is a new Factsheet presenting H-2A program selected statistics based on applications submitted during the first two quarters of FY 2012. The Fact Sheet includes information on the H-2A program use, including top filing states, activities and crops. To view or download the Factsheet please click here.

In addition, the Department has received OMB approval to extend the H-2A forms which were previously set to expire on April 30, 2012.  All H-2A applications should be filed using the extended ETA Form 9142 and Appendix A.2 which reflect the new, October 31, 2012, expiration date.
