For those of you from the UK, as of the 1st of July 2024 you will no longer need to complete specified regional work to extend your visa to a 2nd or 3rd year, as per the new trade deal between the two countries.
Currently progressing my 417 first year work holiday visa? What does this mean in terms of what jobs will I need to do ?
Get to Tully and work on the banana farms, best time of my life! Great money and hourly pay. God I miss Australia

Hi Claudia, I loved this video. Very interesting information. Thank you so much. Would be great to have another video of this topic 🙌🏻.
Hey Alonso, what exactly would you like to know? 😊
Great video

You're so welcome. Let us know if you have any questions!
How's it going
Very helpful. Thanks !! Im going to Australia next April, with WHV. I'll do the welcome Sydney. Then ill see what happens next. Im very exited. :) waiting next videos..
Yewwww so excited for you! Can't wait to have you join us in Sydney. April will come around so fast!✈️
Hello dear,How are you doing?
Wonderful content. Anything for health care and medical Industry?
you're great!! do u know something about basking is cities? if so would like to see in the next video.. waiting :)
Hey Hilla, that's a great question! So in Melbourne and Sydney I believe, in the major tourism or busy areas like centre squares or Bourke St in Melbourne - buskers actually need to get a permit from the local council. I can only speak for Melbourne on this but they require permits as the music culture here is so strong they want to showcase talent when it's deserved and allow the space for them to do so in some of the busiest parts of the city. This also means the buskers tend to earn quite good money! Otherwise away from busy areas you should be able to just set up and play as long as you're not disturbing the peace! Hope that helps
Really informative video - cheers! Excited to head down under this November on a WHV. I'm looking at getting started with your guys Melbourne tour. Is this something I should do even if I'm looking at spending most of my time in WA doing mining and agriculture work?
Hey, thank you, we are so glad it was helpful! Doing a Welcome Tour is the best way to start your Australia journey! It's such a great way to meet new people, have an epic week all while we do all the boring admin stuff to make sure you are completely set up for your adventure. We can also guide you in the right direction when hunting for jobs too :)
Thank you a lot fot the video. I am planning on going to AU next year, after finishing college... I hope I can save good money to return to Brazil in a long future rs
Thanks for watching! Hope you can make it over here :)
Lovely you earn way more in Australia than in the Netherlands. Work and travel love it. Saving for it.
It's a great place to do a mix of work and travel for sure😊
Thanks dear
You're welcome
100% correct on the best way to save. Come to a farm and drive tractors. Most likely accomodation is included, food is sometimes included and the pay is better while doing a more enjoyable job rather than picking. And you will learn skills you can take home and use rather than learn to pick fruit which anyone can do already. Also the lifestyle on farm and the benefits you get while being on a farm will always be better than picking and paying to stay in a hostel. I’m pretty sure the hostel doesn’t have motorbike you can take out riding whenever you while having a few beers. Iv had many backpackers work under me who have made $3000 a week after tax with no prior experience of driving tractors. Iv seen backpackers come with no money after picking and leave us with $20,000 in the bank after a 3 months and have enough knowledge of farm work to be able to go home and get a job on a farm if they wanted.
The downside for backpackers who like to travel in groups is most tractor driving farm jobs aren’t looking for a group, usually one or two.
Good luck, chase the adventure.
Couldn't agree more! Our of curiosity do you work in the agriculture industry in Aus or have you had prior experience doing farm work in the past too?
Can i work for you with my friend? We want to migrate to Australia...we are Greek, we know english and we are so willing to work...we are 21 healthy and fit...thanks🤝
Hi mate, I'm coming over solo on a WHV from the UK in October. Would be great to have a chat!
How can I get that job? Love from indonesia

I really like this program im in for this one much better this time .i hope they dont have a age problem. But im gonna apply for this visa .i love Australia because i worked there before .
how is whv going?
Have you tried recruitment companies? Like temp agencies here in the uk
Thank you so much for this video, very helpful! I had a couple of questions about the casual worker classification - are casual workers still guaranteed 38 hours per week if, for example, they aren't able to work enough hours in a farming job due to weather? Also, do casual workers still receive superannuation contributions? Thank you in advance! 😊
Hey Matt, great questions! Casual workers are NOT guaranteed 38 hours, most awards state a casual employee is legally allowed a min of 3 hours to 38 hours max per week. If the business is busy then casuals generally work quite a bit. It's essentially a discussion between flexibility vs reliability. So you get paid more as a casual but not promised the reliability of hours that a full time employee gets - that's the trade off. Casuals do get super yes 😁
Hello I just moved to Melbourne on a Holiday/work visa and would love to know what information you have I have 11+ years in hospitality field and am willing to work quite anywhere! I would love any help and enjoy your videos they are very informative.
So its possible to work in bigger cities as Sydney or Brisbane for examples in a bar or restaurant and it counts for your 88 days ? Cause i tought only in remote areas ?
Thank you so much for creating the video ❤ Do you know how you can find a job in the hospitality field which would be counted as your 88day work?
Hi Reiny, tourism and hospitality jobs in northern or remote and very remote Australia are now eligible for 88 day work. So I would be searching around the top third of the country or remotely and always ask the employer if they definitely do sign-off for 88 days rather than assuming.
Can you tell us more about which jobs are considered as specified work. Farm/rural work, but what else? I am thinking about applying for a Working Holiday Visa next year. I am from The Netherlands. Thank you in advance! 😊
Hey Stella, the best way to see an overview is on this website: immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/work-holiday-417/specified-work#:~:text=To%20be%20eligible%20to%20apply,industry%20and%20area%20of%20Australia.
Look under the heading 'Approved industries and areas for specified work' ☺We get sooooo many dutchies on our tours! You will love Australia
Very Informative video Thanks Buddy!
I want to know I want to go Australia but I don't have any work experience in( farm house, hospitality or warehouse). So is it easy to get job?
You're welcome. There are plenty of job opportunities available in all industries across Australia. You don't need specific industry experience as long as you can speak english, communicate well, good work ethic, reliable and can learn the job then you will be fine.
Pls can you do a video on finding accommodation once you settle down in a place
I'll add it to the list! If you join us on a Welcome tour we also help our travellers with accomodation advice and knowledge once in the country😉
See you in 2024🫶🏼
Do we need to secure our medical cert if we are applying any job there in Australia?
gente... a Nazaré virou meme internacional !
would a plumbing job count for the 88 days ?
Hi Guys,
The Australia-United Kingdom Free Trade Agreement which would expand the VISA parameters to 3 years and you would not have to do regional work to be accepted for an VISA extension has been signed virtually, I also read this morning that something was passed in the AU parliament on 22 November 2022 but I'm not sure if this is a binding action. Could you make a video explaining the changes it would make, the current situation of the agreement, and when/if it will come into effect?
One reason I'm wanting to know more is that it would mean UK 417 backpackers would not have to do the regional work, however, I'm actually looking forward to doing it as it's a good opportunity to make friends and save some money. My question is how do you think the agreement would affect the sector for Hourly Pay, competition etc...
Regards,
Jordan
Hey Jordan, you're right here although the agreement hasn't officially passed and come into affect so we're intently waiting for it to officially happen. When it does we will absolutely be making a while video on it and posting about the updates all over socials. I would say at this stage it's unlikely to change wages in Australia for UK citizens as award rates are country wide and applicable to all nations, I doubt they will ever approach it to specific nationalities and not others. We will have to see what the changes are once it's officially passed but right now we can't assume anything. Farm work is definitely a good time and a very easy setting to meet people/make new friends.
@@WelcometoTravel Thanks for getting back! Will keep my eye out for that one then!
My question regarding the knock on effect of the changes evolves around the premise that if UK citizens are not required to undertake 88 days of regional work this may create a loss in the national workforce for fruit picking, coupled with other reports I have seen in the past that in AU that there is already a workforce shortage in this sector and that this may lead to a pay rise for all workers (not just UK) in order to entice people to come and work in the sector.
There will absolutely be in a knock-effect when the FTA comes into play and grants UK citizens permission to opt-out of regional work. However the reason for this is we also have a severe worker shortage in professional and other skilled sectors. So the premise of the FTA is to allow UK workers to more easily transfer their skills and qualifications from their professions into the Australian workforce to help ease the stress on shortages in other industries such as trade, construction, customer service, corporate etc. When some industries loose others win basically. Unsure of whether this will encourage a pay-rise for farmwork as the minimum wage was already just increased last year and has ensured piece rate wages meet the minimum wage now too so working holidayers have already won big when it comes to regional work wages.
@@WelcometoTravel Okay, thanks guys! Cant wait to book my WTT Melbourne tour!
What's the best way of getting my home currency into AUD?? From my home country bank??
can I work in mining without any experience?
Hi i'm from Papua New Guinea, am I eligible to apply?
Where are you buying a pint for £5 In London 🤣 it’s mega expensive
Why noone ever mentions taxes being taken out from your salary on a full time official employment?🤔
What would be a good alternative to the WHV for people older than 30? I just realized that I am officially too old (literally just turned 31) to apply, and cannot really find a good equivalent 😮
It depends if your job is on the Skilled Labour Occupation list - there are certain visas available if you can fill a skills gap that an employer is unable to fill with the Australian labour market. It is worth talking with a migration agent if you are unsure and want to explore your options immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skill-occupation-list
I'm ready for tractor
How much money would you recommend to bring out if you can’t get a job? X
It really depends what you are planning to do while you are on your trip. It's good to have a buffer or emergency fund while you are job-hunting - so if you are planning to look for a job straight away when you arrive, take a look at your current spending habits while at home and make sure you can account for at least 1 month without working while you look. Hope that helps!
the best and hardest jobs is on a fisher boat ma friend safed up to 400.000 dollars in 5 months but u will propably wont be taken and its highly dangerous n hard 2-3 hours sleep per day are luxury while u are ion sea 3 months straight having worst conditions to work
Sounds hectic and a job you have to have experience in first! Great money though by the sounds of it
@@WelcometoTravel yes its a good salery but so hard that not many people can do this one
could you tell me more about that job? like what was her job tittle or duties?
@@meditationandrelaxenchanne1658 do you need experience for the job?
I am an American Tech guru, I think I am moving there.
Amazing - we can't wait to have you out here!
One other question, while i am in Avustralia with subclass 462 ( working holiday) , can i apply subclass 476 or other visa types? If yes, when the second visa start? After the 462 ?
did the first girl work in Sydney for her first year? Or was she on a second year as I am unsure if working in Sydney counts towards the 88 days xx
Hi Emma, working in Sydney does not count towards your 88 days however there are farms outside of the city that count if they are far out enough. The list of post codes that count towards your days including in NSW are on the gov website immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/work-holiday-417/specified-work
i fly into melbourne in a few months...what would you recommend doing if i want to work for 2 months and save a large amount of money? thank you, Annabel xx
Hey Annabel, farmwork is definitely the best option if you're happy to live more remotely away from a major city as living costs are less, with less things to spend money on and decent wages. How exciting you're coming over soon!
@@WelcometoTravel thank you so much! super helpful :) Could i get straight to work once i arrive? do you happen to know where i should start i fly into melbourne...do you know of the best farms to work on where you're treated well or which region is good to find work? xx
Hi Annabel! Same as me, in going to Melbourne at the end of March and was thinking about flying somewhere else to start with a regional job
waait, so do you NEED to do farming or not for 88 days I'm so confused haha
You can also complete Tourism & Hospitality work if it is above the tropic of Capricorn and this counts towards your days, so for example Cairns, Magnetic Island and Airlie Beach are some places on the East Coast where it counts!
@@WelcometoTravel which would you recommend to go to, as I like a goodnight life and good things to do in the day xx
One question, how does the taxes work there for this kind of VISA? And how do you declare if you have other incomes from home?
Hey Lucia, all working holiday makers will pay 15% in tax. If you have a high bracket paying job however the tax may increase but generally it's 15%. You can lodge a tax return as of July 1st in Australia and if you're on the WHV it likely won't be necessary to declare foreign income. As long as you've paid the correct tax in Aus.

Thank you so much for the information.
how it works with relocation bonus? is normal you can get it on a working holiday visa?
Sorry I don't understand the question, can you elaborate?
Hi what’s the best way to get farm work? (Through which website?) and how do you know if it’s a good reputable farm? Thank you :)
