H-2B Visa Program
H-2B Out of Country Jobs 2026
JTP Agency recruits qualified workers from approved countries for H-2B seasonal jobs in the United States. Apply free — we never charge workers.
What Does “Out of Country” Mean?
H-2B Out of Country Explained
“Out of country” H-2B refers to workers who apply for their H-2B visa from their home country before traveling to the US to begin work. This is the standard H-2B process — you apply, get matched with an employer, receive your visa, and travel to the United States.
This is different from an “in-country” H-2B transfer, where a worker already in the US on another visa status transfers to H-2B status without leaving.
JTP Agency specializes in out of country H-2B recruitment — connecting workers from approved countries with US employers who have open seasonal positions.

Good to Know
First-Time vs. Returning Workers
First-Time Applicants
Never worked in the US on H-2B before? You're welcome to apply. Submit your resume through the official portal and our team will review your experience against available positions.
Returning Workers
Previously worked in the US on H-2B? Your resume is already on file — you do not need to reapply unless your information has changed. Returning workers are often prioritized by employers and may qualify for supplemental visa allocations.
Applying with a Spouse
If you want to be considered together with your spouse, mention this in the summary section of your resume. Both must submit individual applications.
Setting Expectations
What to Expect After You Apply
Submitting your resume does not guarantee a job offer, interview, or visa. Here is how the process actually works:
JTP reviews your application
Our team reviews every submission and matches qualified candidates to open employer positions based on experience, availability, and fit.
Employers make final decisions
JTP forwards qualified candidates to employers — but the final hiring decision is made solely by the employer. We do not control who they choose to interview or hire.
Timing varies significantly
Some applicants are selected within weeks. Others may wait months or over a year. It depends on employer demand, visa quotas, and experience match.
Your resume stays on file
Even if not selected immediately, your application remains in our database and will be considered for future seasons. No need to reapply unless your information changes.
Wages disclosed after selection
Salary details are provided only if you are selected for an interview. All wages meet or exceed US minimum wage requirements.
Common Questions
H-2B Out of Country FAQ
Do I need work experience to apply?
Yes. You must have relevant experience for the position you're applying for. If your resume doesn't clearly show this, your application is unlikely to move forward.
How much does it cost to apply?
Nothing. Applying is 100% free. We never charge workers any fees. If anyone asks you to pay, it is a scam.
How long until I hear back?
It varies. Some applicants hear within weeks, others wait several months or longer. It depends on employer demand, visa availability, and experience match.
Can I choose where I work?
You can select a specific employer if you are a returning worker, or choose "Apply to All" if open to any location.
Does H-2B lead to permanent residency?
No. H-2B is temporary. You must return home at the end of your contract. It does not lead to a green card or permanent residency.

After 3 consecutive years, you must leave the US for at least 60 consecutive days before returning on a new H-2B visa.
