Farm/ Regional Work Requirement for Your 2nd Year

The Australian Working Holiday Visa Extension (2nd year) is available to people who have completed three months specified work (construction work including) in regional Australia while on their first year Working Holiday visa. Regional Australia is defined by specific postcodes. You should check the postcode list before starting specified work to ensure it is in an eligible area.

How to Get a Second Year Australian Visa?

  • You have to be between 18 but not yet 31 years old.
  • You must still be eligible for the 1st year visa - no criminal record, no breach of Australian immigration rules, must be in good health.
  • You have completed three months specified work in regional Australia while on your first Working Holiday visa.
  • You can provide evidence of this specified work. Download the Employment Verification Form 1263 here. This must be completed by all the employers you have done seasonal work for during your first 12 months in Oz.

Please note that if you have previously applied for, or attempted to apply for, a 2nd Australian WHM Visa, you need to tell us when submitting your application.

Second Year Visa Cost

  • Ireland residents: €410
  • UK residents and other countries: £370

The processing time is between 3 working days to 3 weeks after your documents are with the embassy. If you are in Australia and your 1st year visa is about to expire - when we submit your extension application you will be granted a bridging visa until your application is assessed.

Hi Debbie/ Declan, Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! My boys are jumping around and hugging me haha. All the stress and uncertainty has now been worth it. I have just rang Mary and explained to her we dont need the 457 visa now and she is fine. Happy for us and there is still a job there for me if I want it. Champagne in the fridge for dinner this evening. Thanks again for all your hard work. Kind Regards, Janet
