The H-2B program for FY 2024 outlines specific visa allocations and employment start date ranges for different periods within the fiscal year. The program aims to address labor needs by allowing temporary hiring of noncitizens for non-agricultural work in the U.S. Various provisions are in place to protect both U.S. and H-2B workers, and petitions for supplemental allocations must be filed at the USCIS Texas Service Center to be considered valid.
