US stops issuing new work visas to Filipinos | Inquirer Globalnation

In a Jan. 18 notice posted on its Federal Register, the DHS banned the entry of additional Filipino workers with H2-A and H2-B visas due to overstaying and human trafficking concerns.
The one-year ban is effective from Jan. 19, 2019, to Jan. 18, 2020.
H-2A visas are temporary visas for foreign agricultural workers while the H2-B visas are given to foreign workers providing non-agricultural services in the US.
“The Philippines has a high H-2B overstay rate. In FY 2017, DHS estimated that nearly 40 percent of H-2B visa holders from the Philippines overstayed their period of authorized stay,” the DHS notice read.
It noted that among all US posts in the world, the US Embassy Manila “issues the greatest number of T-derivative visas.”
