990 H-2B worker approvals were reported for employers classified in Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting with worksites recorded in Washington in fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. USCIS approved all 990 workers counted in initial approval and denial decisions for these employers, for an approval rate of 100%. The coverage included 17 petitioners named in the data. These figures represent workers who were included in USCIS initial approval and denial decisions on H-2B petitions and are not counts of petitions or visas, nor of individual people. The state is determined by the worksite recorded on the linked Labor Department labor certification, not by the employer's main location. The industry refers to the two-digit NAICS sector associated with the employer on the same certification, which describes the employer's industry, not the workers' occupation.

You inherit a substantial sum from a relative who accumulated it through practices you consider exploitative. Keeping it would improve your family's security; donating it could support people harmed by similar practices.
