Recent Changes To The Australian Working Holiday Visa
So now that summer is almost here and the weather is changing people over the age of 30 can now rejoice that the Working Holiday Visa (WHV) scheme has been extended to those who are a few years older, up to age 35 to be precise.
The application fee has been dropped by $50 this means more money for beers on Coogee grass with everyone else who has made the perilous flight in economy class. So cancel that wedding put the baby on hold and come on out where the sun is shining and construction work plentiful.
Stop working in the cold blustery conditions back in Northern Europe, no more need for the frosty morning starts ditch the gloves grab your PPE equipment, boardshorts, sun cream and head on over to the sun, sand and the sound of jackhammers.
Recent changes now also enable you to be employed for 12 months with the wonderful guys here at Hunter Labour Hire!
Backpacker Tax Delayed – Working Holiday Visa
Also good news for anyone coming to upside down land is the delay in the controversial backpacker tax. The Australian government has decided to delay the controversial backpacker tax, this means that you will still get a tax free allowance which is great news, you should probably thank the farmers for this.
