2,311 H-2B worker approvals were reported for employers classified in Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services with worksites recorded in Mississippi in fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. All 2,311 decided workers were approved by USCIS, with an approval rate of 100%. The count covered 41 named petitioners. These figures represent the number of workers involved in USCIS initial approval and denial decisions on H-2B petitions, not counts of petitions, visa issuances, or individual people. The state attribution is based on the worksite location listed on the related Labor Department labor certification, rather than where an employer is based. The industry classification reflects the two-digit NAICS sector of each employer from the same certification and identifies the employer’s industry, not the occupation of the workers.
