GAO audit identifies DOL, DHS, and State Department oversight failures in H-2A visa program, creating enforcement gaps exploitable through compliance monitoring services.

GAO audit reveals DOL, DHS, and State Department have inadequate oversight and enforcement mechanisms for H-2A visa program, creating compliance gaps.

READ SIGNAL

Executive summary

Current state

GAO audit reveals DOL cannot effectively enforce H-2A visa compliance due to dependency on DHS's manual data processing systems, with 84% of investigations finding violations and H-2A accounting for 54% of agricultural back wages assessed, creating a structural gap between enforcement authority and data access.

Market catalyst

DOL publishes H-2A enforcement data in fragmented, non-machine-readable format on its website, despite having documented 84% violation rate across investigations from FY2018-2023
