About the Job
We're looking for a full house manager to help with keeping the house clean and organized, meal prep, and some errands (infrequent). Please only apply to this if you have experience with meal preparation and full cleaning (deep and maintenance). We are looking for someone for 10-15 hours a week, flexible days/times on weekdays only. Preferably min 3 days a week since we are dependent on meal prep assistance, but are willing to be flexible with someone who can help us make daily meal prep work!
About us: We have two kids, 4. 5 and 2, and one small very sweet dog named Bowie. We are constrained by busy schedules and want to ensure all of our free time is focused family time so we are looking for additional help. We had a temporary house manager for the last 3 months so we have a good baseline of resources/processes to help support.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, plumbers receive a base rate of $32.45 per hour with time-and-a-half at $48.68 per hour for all hours over 40 in a workweek as of January 1 2026. This rate applies nationwide under the Fair Labor Standards Act for non-exempt plumbing roles. Union contracts in 12 states add an additional $4.25 per hour shift differential.
What visa and work permit steps are required for foreign plumbers to work legally in the United States in 2026?
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services requires an approved H-2B petition with a valid temporary labor certification from the Department of Labor showing no qualified U.S. workers available. The visa cap for fiscal year 2026 is set at 66,000 with an additional 20,000 returning worker exemption available until March 31 2026. Applicants must submit Form I-129 and pay the $460 filing fee plus $150 fraud prevention fee.
What education and experience minimums qualify someone for licensed plumber jobs in the United States?
The U.S. Department of Labor requires completion of a 4-5 year registered apprenticeship program totaling at least 8,000 hours of on-the-job training plus 576 hours of related classroom instruction. A high school diploma or GED is mandatory before starting the apprenticeship. Four states additionally require 2 years of documented prior experience for license examination eligibility in 2026.
Which documents must be submitted when applying for plumber positions through official U.S. government workforce channels in 2026?
Job seekers must upload a completed ETA Form 9089, current plumbing license, and proof of apprenticeship completion to the Department of Labor's job bank system.

Background check authorization forms must also be signed before any conditional offer.
