I have a hard-working nephew coming out for a bit of a reccie - he's 19 - on a backpack tour up the E coast then down with us for couple weeks. Certainly we want to show him the sites of Tassie but how could we show him what it might be like to work out here. He's been on a time-out working retail & doing well, he had been considering animal medicine, but now not sure he wants 7-yrs of Uni. We can show him some work situations - (like a factory & farm) any suggestions for people having relatives coming to stay trying to decide if Aus is for them - how best to help them?!

    Have the best time! Are you joining us on a tour in Sydney? You won't find any jobs in Sydney that can sign you off on 88-days as it has to be in a regional postcode which is far away from the major cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Retail also does not qualify as specified work. Aside from that you will find plenty of work in the retail sector if you're looking for it.

    Specifically what areas for the medical industry or advice are you after? If you're a skilled-worker coming over it will depend on whether you can transfer skills/qualifications and be a registered worker in Aus. This can be time consuming but we have a definite worker shortage in this industry too. The working holiday visa could be a good starting option but you could also consider skilled worker visas if you're looking to relocate for your career in the health sector.

    Жыл бұрын

    Hey there, are you thinking of coming to Australia as a student longer term? If so a student visa might be more ideal however you are allowed to work for up to 4 months on the working holiday yes. If you're studying purely online through your home university and can study from anywhere in the world then the working holiday is still the best option as it offers more flexibility and you're not technically studying in Aus. But being an international student at an Australian school/uni is completely different and will not be possible on the WHV if it's beyond the 4 months. Totally depends on your study situation I guess. It does not make study free if you're on a WH though. Education is not free in Aus unfortunately and we have a type of student loan repayment system. Hope this helps!

    Hi Lee, it tends to be quite difficult to directly transfer overseas qualifications to be recognised as Australia standard quals/certs however you experience in this field will go very far.

I’ve been trying to gather info and ask around but so far some say yes. Some no. Based on the immi web I think it counts as an instruction job in regional area, but the payslip I get is from perth city. So I don’t know if I can still use them, or if I can, is there any other documents I need to proof that I indeed work FIFO in regional area? By the way, I have whv subclass 462

  • @WelcometoTravel

    Hey, FIFO jobs should absolutely count towards 88 days however it always depends on whether the employer has the capability to do the sign-offs. Not all businesses can automatically do this, they need to go through certain admin measures to set themselves to to be able to sign-off working holiday makers. I would suggest you contact your employer straight away and ask them. With your payslip being from Perth City this might be an issue as the FIFO work needs to be regional in order to count.

    Hey there, you can do whatever online work you choose and the Working Holiday visa would still be suitable if you want to stay in Australia for a longer period of time. You don't have to work while you're here on a WH so if you have remote work lined up that's totally fine. However if you with to extend the visa for a 2nd or 3rd year you will definitely have to do the regional work still. Let me know if you have any other specific questions.

In regards to getting sponsored it can be quite difficult but if you're skilled and right for the job and the company has the capabilities to sponsor then it's definitely possible. Not every company can sponsor as it's costly and requires a lot of paperwork so if this is the ultimate goal I would suggest applying at larger companies.
