The Department of Immigration and
Border Protection is currently in the process of making a change to the second
Working Holiday (subclass 417) visa initiative, to exclude volunteer work
activities, such as Willing Workers on Organic Farms (WWOOF), from its
eligibility framework. However, this change will take some time to introduce,
and is not yet in effect, so it does not impact upon current second Working
Holiday visa applications.
When the Department
knows the exact date of implementation for the change, it will be announced
publicly on our website. This public announcement will be made well ahead of
the implementation date so that participants have suitable advance warning.
While it is likely the change will commence towards the end of 2015,
participants should regularly check this website for updates.
