Consider a Working Holiday in Australia

Youth is the prime time when one yearns to explore the world and discover new horizons. Yet it is also a time when one’s purse strings are tight because you are financially dependent on your parents or guardians.

The Working Holiday Visa in Australia gives you the perfect opportunity to work to earn a living while you enjoy the sights of Australia.  This is an ideal opportunity for cultural exchange and closer ties between participating countries.

Devisers, a leading and reputed immigration service provider, guides young travellers from participating countries to legally have an extended holiday in Australia and earn money through short-term employment which may be a full-time, part-time, casual, shift and voluntary work.

Devisers will help you through the procedures of either one of two types of Working Holiday Maker visas: Working Holiday visa (Subclass 417) and Work and Holiday visa (Subclass 462).

Working Holiday visa (subclass 417) is for youngsters at least 18 but not yet 31 years of age who want to holiday and work in Australia for up to a year. You must have a passport from an eligible country and must not have a dependent child accompanying you at any time during your stay in Australia.

The Work and Holiday visa (Subclass 462) entitles one to stay in Australia for up to 12 months; work in Australia for up to six months with each employer as well as study for up to four months. These visas will enable you to leave and re-enter Australia any number of times while the visa is valid.

Devisers will guide you as to your need for a valid passport. If you plan to get a new passport, you should do so before applying for your visa as your Australian working holiday visa is linked to the passport number you use in your application.

Australia has reciprocal working holiday visa programs with many countries; a few extra requirements are needed if you want to have an extended working holiday in Argentina, Bangladesh, Chile, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey, the USA or Uruguay.

Devisers will help you get an extension on your working holiday visa so that you may be able to extend your stay for another 12 months with a second working holiday visa. To be eligible you must have completed three months specified work in regional areas of Australia while on your first Working Holiday visa.
