Really appreciate that comment about not putting too much pressure on living how you did before ive been so worried about getting a job i think i needed to hear that!
For anyone watching this video now, the new trade agreement comes into full effect as of the 1st of July 2024, meaning you can apply for your 2nd/3rd year visa without undertaking specified regional work.
You are a god sent, I just found your channel as I'm moving to brisbane this July and these settled a lot of my nerves. After spending 2 years in Canada 🇨🇦 this has reassured me a lot. Thank you and amazing video 😀
Omg thank you so much! You literally encouraged me to JUST DO IT. I already have the WHV and I'm planning to move in 2 months but its still freaking me out (even though I've travelled and work in Asia many times). Great content :)
Such a great and super informative video Dain! Literally at the very start of thinking of planning my trip so this was super helpful. Thanks so much! 🙏🇭🇲
Thank you! I’m going Australia at the end of the month. I’m also from England and this was the most honest and informative vid on TH-cam. I’m subscribed now and looking forward to more vids
Thank you so much for this video ! It's really reassuring. You just encouraged me even more do it. I was scared to be too old (I'm 27, 28/29 by the time I leave) but you just proved that you're never too old to do something. Great Video :)
Thank you thank you so much I really needed this for 2024 but overall this video was so funny I never knew that people are actually afraid of birds, but you know everyone has their own fears😭
Definitely something I'm looking to do How do you balance the work/ explore life style? Does part-time casual work, pay enough for you to travel and explore?
I honestly feel like I work a lot less than in the UK and earn more money 😂 - all my work I have done has been casual so I can take time off a lot to explore! thanks for watching James!
Oh man, thank you so much for this video. I've watched a few and yours was the most calming (gave me more confidence to actually pursue it) and very informational (I looked up and liked the Wake Up Sydney for initial accommodations too before watching this, you mentioning it was awesome). There's one thing I can't seem to double confirm though. If I already have a remote job that pays well and I'm not worried about extending my stay for a 2nd or 3rd year, I understand I can just enter Australia with the WHV and not get any work at all for all 12 months and leave after, right? Was planning on just doing 1 year then another 1 year in NZ similarly with their WHV. Thanks again for the awesome video! Really appreciate it 🙏🏽
@@DainLuka Awesome thanks for the response! I do have one more question I'm not sure you'd have the answer for but I'll ask anyway: If my intentions were to do 1 year from June 2023 - June 2024, but I wanted to make a casual 1-week trip there first prior around March 2023. If I applied now and got accepted, would I be able to visit Sydney in March as part of my regular travel visa and not trigger the 12-months WHV so that I can have that start proper from June instead?
Grazie molto chiari ed interessanti, anche io e mia moglie entrambi quasi trentenni stiamo iniziando ad organizzarci per L’Australia. Se tutto va secondo i pieni tra un annetto 😁
20 tips to move to aus from a aus breed....... dont come here its not all that galmourous that people make it to be online but if u do enjoy months worth of cold, cloudy, rain weather and get used to floods. look up la nina
Hey! Amazing video! I really appreciate it :) I got an email saying I was approved. Kinda dumb question but do I need to print it off or anything when I fly to Australia and go through customs or will it be in their system because I gave them my passport?
Thanks for watching 😎 nooo you don’t need to print it. When I came in I just scanned my passport and off I went I didn’t even see any passport control people !
before moving to aus look up la nina and watch australians experiences from it. the media makes aus look like this galmourous place but its not just me. its just really expensive. enjoy moving
My only worry is about bills versus wages. I'm used to making $17.50 full time here, and I'm not sure how great my finances will look with a similar pay in Sydney, or any part of Australia for that matter
Hey man, absolutely love the videos thanks for providing us with these stories 😁 You didnt tell us anything about your income versus spendings. Would love to know if its possible to work in australia and save money in hospitality. Im not expecting to make big bank but would love to leave with a cool year of doing different jobs and having a nice laid back expierence but atleast save some money to go on to asia after! That possible?
Thank you really appreciate it ! 😎 yes it definitely is, the wages are a lot higher here you could work in hospitality and easy get a job paying up to $30 an hour. Lots more Aus videos to come !
So if I had cancer and I’m in remission for 6+ months with no regrowth (they triple checked 😂), would I still be okay to apply for the visa? Love this video btw. Looking at moving by next December
Great video man, really appreciate it! I think you mentioned you spent a week at your hostel when you just arrived - did you find that was enough? I'm hearing hostels in Sydney right now are pretty packed with travellers. Would you recommend 2 weeks or was one enough? Did you feel it gave you enough time to explore, make some friends, have everything set up, and also find a job? Thank you!
Thank you for watching ! Yep a week was perfect for setting everything up and making friends. I think I stayed in wake up nearly 3 weeks by the time I found somewhere to live. But keep in mind if you book 2 weeks and you don’t like the hostel your stuck there for 2 weeks 😃
Thank you for the vid, looking to move from London there mainly to be closer to the beach and have better weather. Just wanted to ask , once you pay for WHV can it still be denied? I’m scared to do it and loose the money paid for it. Really would love to move maybe in May, how much money savings you reckon I would need to start before starting a job there? Thank you !
No problem thanks for watching ! It can be denied but I have never heard about this happening. I think a sensible amount is enough to cover you for a couple of months - I have a video on how much to budget for moving to Australia th-cam.com/video/XevMZgTc31Q/w-d-xo.html
@@DainLuka thank you for your reply! I’ve watched it, massive help! Just one last question, did u have to do any health exams to submit? I have not traveled any risk countries but not sure if I do need that in my application.
@@catiareis5091 I didn’t have too - I know a few people that have been to Indonesia and needed one but other than that no! It will tell you when you apply if you need one
Would you say landing to a smaller town like Cairns when you first arrive is a good idea because the expenses aren't as big as in big cities? Like would it be a good chance to grind and figure the system out before moving to a city? But is it harder to find a job from smaller towns?
During your working holiday visa, is it possible to catch a flight and visit New Zealand as a tourist and then return to Australia back under your working holiday visa? Or once you have left the country, is that you ‘out’ essentially? Many Thanks :)
So you within your working holiday visa you can leave and re enter as many times as you want within your year :) New Zealand is beautiful should definitely check it out !
Just started planning to move to aus from the UK in the next 6/8 months :) Does working as a chef count as regional work? Im a qualified chef with 10years experience in high end pubs/ restaurants but would be looking to get a job as a labourer in the mines when in Perth. Any tips would be great :)
Did you go through a company or did you do everything on your own? I was going to pay global work and travel and go through them to do a trip... but if its cheaper to do it on my own, then ill do it.
Thanks for the info. Do you know of anyone who has done the 88 days of tourism work in northern Australia? Since its only since 2021, I can't find any blog posts or videos about it.
@@DainLuka Do you know what kind of jobs they did? So far I've only heard the Hostel/hotel work and chef or barista work were done. Curious what other kind of jobs might be available that don't require things like being a diving expert or something. I've joined so many facebook groups but they're full of people looking for information, with very few answers.
@@travelfarstayclose I have one friend who works in a tour booking agency and another who works for a van rental company 😊 I’m going to be making a video soon all about jobs so hopefully that will be helpful
So I got work through an agency so got work quite quickly - but that was just for my profession ! I have heard it’s very easy to get a job in hospitality because there is such a high demand for workers so you should be all good :)
I'm looking to go to Australia because renting is expensive in my country and if i'm gonna rent in my country to escape my parent's home that has terrible neighbours, might as well use the money for traveling. And i would really hope that australia, having bigger land, would mean more detached houses with rooms to rent. So I wonder if are there these types of rooms to rent in the market and how much do they cost? If not, are the hostels noisy?
CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION PLEASE!? After you apply for visa and are approved how much time do you have to move to Australia? If I don't plan on moving for 1 year should I apply now or wait? I don't want to apply, get approved, and then only have 3 months to move before they rescind the offer and I miss the opportunity Thank you!!!!!!
That’s a great question !! I always look for hostels with security lockers and ones that look big enough to fit a laptop/camera etc. you can usually see on photos if a hostel has them :)
Thanks for watching! I got a recruitment agent and they got me into work (this was social work specific) the big job websites over here are indeed and seek :)
What price is to be expected at Wake Up! Sydney? While searching on prices from Sweden the prices seemed quite crazy. Saw a room shared by 10 people where they still expected 70 AUD per night per person. Is it the booking sites ramping up the prices perhaps? I also checked on Wake Up!'s own site where i found pretty much the same high prices.
Hello! I just found your video, I’m 17 and I’ve been planning on moving to Australia since 2021 to live with my partner when I graduate from highschool in 2024. Do you have any tips for a teenager who lives in America to move to live with someone?
Hey this is really random but I’m planning on moving to Australia. I was wondering if you would like to maybe connect and talk. I need some advice and I would love to make friends :)
Hi Dain, am an Indian I would like to know whether, that I'll will be eligible to apply for working holiday visa from my country to Australia? If yes, how should i seek for a healthcare jobs over there? BTW your videos are very helpful for students like us😊👏
Is there something you need to do to login your work is there some sort of proof you need to show that you have done the 88 days work that you need to do or does the wages coming into your account each week/month class as proof?
Hi all, me, my wife and our 2 children are looking to permanently move to the Gold Coast area. I have 16 years experience as an ultrasonic technician on the railway and was hoping to carry this on over in Oz. Just after some info on what steps I should take in trying to find a job over there whilst I’m still in the Uk, if I need to get sponsored and what visa I should i apply for and is it possible to find a job of this sort before making the move etc…. My wife owns her own recruitment company here in the uk and would like to carry on in this sector over there also. Any help would be much appreciated Thankyou
Hey Dain, probs a stupid question, but do the visas get accepted/declined through email/online? I am hoping to apply for the visa while I would be travelling in Bali, meaning I wont have access to my home address. Cant find any info online about it. The plan is to leave UK, backpack around Southeast Asia and then work in Aus, just worried ive now left the working visa too late as I leave UK in a couple weeks
Yes they do ! You just get an email saying it’s granted with the document :) I applied whilst in Mexico and it got approved and flew to Sydney not long after 😊
@@DainLuka aah that’s perfect! Thanks for the reply! Are you able to select dates of when you want the visa to start or does it simply start instantly? I’m thinking of applying for it a few months before actually heading to Aus as I’m worried by Bali I won’t have the 5000 AUD. so thinking of applying now when I have more than that, hopefully getting accepted, but starting the year visa in a few months time rather than right now
Hi mate I'm coming out in Feb I'll have around 15 to 16 thousand australian dollars is that a good amount to get started and chill for aabit before working ?
Hi Dain I'm from Ireland planning on going next year end of March I'm just wondering with booking flights when I go to book like just check my departure date and return date the return date only goes up to like 6 months so like end of March and the return won't go any further then September but I'll be there a year any help on that? Or should I get a 1 way
@@DainLuka ah awesome thanks for quick reply I was afraid Incase they question why it's only one way and sorry just one more thing do you have to fill a passenger card thing to state where you are staying I saw some other stuff and you need to fill a passenger card, could you just not fly over and then when you land at airport just book somewhere then? Sorry I'm just so so nervous on doing this myself and I think of all these things that could go wrong and I don't even have a visa sorted yet
@@shaneneary4799 your welcome man! It’s a scary thing to do but so worth it. If you need to fill any cards in they’ll give that to you on the plane. You’d just put the address where your gonna stay the first night (no one checks this) When I arrived at Sydney airport I just scanned my passport at immigration I didn’t see any one it was very relaxed 😂
@@DainLuka Awesome thanks so much man I feel more at ease now I'm sorting my visa out tomorrow now so I'll be getting this show on the road, appreciate the response so soon also 🙂
Thanks for watching Rory! I think this just means your tax code at the time I didnt have my Aus TFN so I just gave commonwealth my English National insurance number and they didnt seem to care :)

Hi Dain, am an Indian I would like to know whether, that I'll will be eligible to apply for working holiday visa from my country to Australia? If yes, how should i seek for a healthcare jobs over there? BTW your videos are very helpful for students like us😊👏
Thank you for watching ! I would check online for that info!
Is there something you need to do to login your work is there some sort of proof you need to show that you have done the 88 days work that you need to do or does the wages coming into your account each week/month class as proof?
Yeah! So when I applied for my second visa I just had to upload my payslips for that time period 😀
were you able to work in SYD on a working holiday visa?
yes! lots of jobs in the city however its easier to get jobs in towns with less travellers!
Hi all, me, my wife and our 2 children are looking to permanently move to the Gold Coast area. I have 16 years experience as an ultrasonic technician on the railway and was hoping to carry this on over in Oz. Just after some info on what steps I should take in trying to find a job over there whilst I’m still in the Uk, if I need to get sponsored and what visa I should i apply for and is it possible to find a job of this sort before making the move etc….
My wife owns her own recruitment company here in the uk and would like to carry on in this sector over there also.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thankyou
How much deductions do you have while working? Is it correct that every whv maker with tfn pays 15% tax? 😊
Thanks for watching ! Yes so on a WHV it’s 15% until you earn 45k then it goes up to 32.5% 🙌🏻
where can i find more info about my 88 days i just had my visa granted.
video will be out in the next few months 😃
Hey Dain, probs a stupid question, but do the visas get accepted/declined through email/online? I am hoping to apply for the visa while I would be travelling in Bali, meaning I wont have access to my home address. Cant find any info online about it. The plan is to leave UK, backpack around Southeast Asia and then work in Aus, just worried ive now left the working visa too late as I leave UK in a couple weeks
Yes they do ! You just get an email saying it’s granted with the document :) I applied whilst in Mexico and it got approved and flew to Sydney not long after 😊
@@DainLuka aah that’s perfect! Thanks for the reply! Are you able to select dates of when you want the visa to start or does it simply start instantly? I’m thinking of applying for it a few months before actually heading to Aus as I’m worried by Bali I won’t have the 5000 AUD. so thinking of applying now when I have more than that, hopefully getting accepted, but starting the year visa in a few months time rather than right now
@@gageadavis I’d apply now ! You have a year to enter from the date of approval :) and then you have a year from the date you enter
@@DainLuka perfect thank you!! Looking forward to seeing more of your content
Can I apply for the second visa if I turn 31 in AU ?
Hey! I can't find the telephone number to ask my TFN. Could you help me please?? I do need it :)
Hi bro how can I get a working visa for Australia? Can’t you guide me please 🙏?
Hey mate thanks for watching ! just go onto the Gov website and you can apply there!
Hi mate I'm coming out in Feb I'll have around 15 to 16 thousand australian dollars is that a good amount to get started and chill for aabit before working ?
Yessss that will be plenty to travel for a long time ! It’s expensive here but the wages are higher 😄
@@DainLuka yeah lol there isn't much information about how much people take but yeah rather be safe than sorry and save as much as possible
Hi Dain I'm from Ireland planning on going next year end of March I'm just wondering with booking flights when I go to book like just check my departure date and return date the return date only goes up to like 6 months so like end of March and the return won't go any further then September but I'll be there a year any help on that? Or should I get a 1 way
100% just book a one way ! You never know you might end up staying or travelling some where after ✈️
@@DainLuka ah awesome thanks for quick reply I was afraid Incase they question why it's only one way and sorry just one more thing do you have to fill a passenger card thing to state where you are staying I saw some other stuff and you need to fill a passenger card, could you just not fly over and then when you land at airport just book somewhere then? Sorry I'm just so so nervous on doing this myself and I think of all these things that could go wrong and I don't even have a visa sorted yet
@@shaneneary4799 your welcome man! It’s a scary thing to do but so worth it. If you need to fill any cards in they’ll give that to you on the plane. You’d just put the address where your gonna stay the first night (no one checks this) When I arrived at Sydney airport I just scanned my passport at immigration I didn’t see any one it was very relaxed 😂
@@DainLuka Awesome thanks so much man I feel more at ease now I'm sorting my visa out tomorrow now so I'll be getting this show on the road, appreciate the response so soon also 🙂
I've signed upto commonwealth bank, what does it mean by tax residency documents what do i need to provide? Great vid btw!
Thanks for watching Rory! I think this just means your tax code at the time I didnt have my Aus TFN so I just gave commonwealth my English National insurance number and they didnt seem to care :)
that was so scary, are u 3 years old ?
