Moving To Australia?

Working Holiday Visa (417 Visa).

One of the most popular ways for many job seekers to work in Australia is the Working Holiday Visa or Class 417 Visa.

This visa type has many advantages and allows visa holders to enter Australia and remain in the country for up to 1 year as well as work continuously with any one employer for a period of 6 months. Working Holiday Visa holders often hold a distinct advantage over job seekers applying from overseas as they are able to apply for and be considered for urgent job requirements as they arise. Job seekers holding a working holiday visa also have the ability to "try out" an organisation before committing themselves to a sponsorship arrangement.

Whilst more and more Australian organisations are willing to sponsor, it is highly advisable to investigate the possibility of extending your stay in Australia via a immigration management company.

Residents of the following countries are eligible for a Working Holiday Visa:

Belgium, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Taiwan, UK.

Please note that applicants must be aged between 18 & 30 at the time of application. US citizens are not eligible for this visa class.
