Compare pathways
Start with the work you need to fill.
Our specialty is H-2B. Agricultural work and permanent roles have different pathways and requirements. This comparison helps frame your questions; it does not select a legal category for your business.

Your agent of record. Your business stays in control.
Connecting Labor USA is a consulting firm, not a law firm. We coordinate filings and the case calendar. You remain the employer and sign as the petitioner. Matters needing an attorney are handled by counsel under a separate engagement.
