True or False: The H-2A visa for temporary agricultural workers can be granted for up to 5 years.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only for 3 years

  4. Only for 2 years

The correct answer is: False

The correct response highlights that the H-2A visa for temporary agricultural workers is not granted for a duration of up to five years. Instead, regulations allow the initial visa period for the H-2A visa to be granted for the duration of the specific agricultural season, typically not exceeding one year. However, the visa can be extended in increments, allowing workers to stay for a maximum of three years in total. Thus, stating that it can be granted for five years is inaccurate, making the assertion that it is false valid. The other choices imply different time frames for the H-2A visa, but they do not address the maximum potential duration appropriately either. The focus is correctly placed on understanding the maximum allowable duration for the H-2A visa, which ultimately confirms that five years is incorrect.
