Great article, thank you.

I applied for my WHV visa at the end of June 2023 and wil be arriving in Aus in Jan 2024.

Does that mean that in Dec 24/Jan25 I can apply for a second year without having done any regional work??

Or is this only the case for VISAs applied for FROM July 2023 when the new rules were stated??

I don’t know wether I have to do this farm work now because I haven’t done a whole year since this came into play!
Please help! I want to stay here for longer and get a proper worthwhile job but I don’t want to foresake this and be left with no farm work to my name when it comes to getting a second year!

I have previously applied for my working holiday visa for Australia. I flew in and only stayed for 3 weeks due to family reasons. I have a different passport number since and never earns any money in Australia. Would I be eligible for a working holiday visa or must I wait until July 2024?

Eligible passport holders
These new arrangements are only available to applicants who use a passport issued by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to lodge their visa application. Under longstanding legislative arrangements, a person can use only one citizenship to access the maximum number of Working Holiday (subclass 417) visas in their lifetime. UK citizens who have previously been granted and entered Australia on a Working Holiday (subclass 417) visa using a different passport (for example, from the Republic of Ireland) are not eligible to apply again using their UK passport.
