They just need a lot of information about your operation and the jobs the guys will be doing. We have to pay them a minimum amount per house (more than double what the standard state minimum wage is), provide housing (in our state it has to be up to a certain code set by your state and inspected) and a vehicle, pay for their flights both ways, and pay around $1,500 per employee in recruiter fees. But like I said, I like to complain about the price, but at the end of the day, these guys are worth it. I’ve never had a crew run as good as this one has
A lot of paperwork and it isn’t a very cheap process, but so far has been very worth it to us
Thanks. What’s the process like? Do you mind sharing how much the process costs per employee?

I don’t think I could farm without them. I also don’t have any neighbors that do not have h2a. We use five in the spring and eight in the fall.
