fi1234 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 hi, i arrived back in the uk just before christmas for a month or so and want to get back out to aus asap. I applied for my 2WHV about 10 days ago and still havent heard anything back. How long does it usually take to be granted as i was hoping to be back in aus beginning of February also is there any ways to speed up the process. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalis Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 It varies from within the hour to about 4 weeks! Lately I have heard of lots of travellers applications taking a few weeks. Must be the workload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fi1234 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 No way! That's not good! I do hope mines a bit quicker but not looking hopefull. Does anyone know if you can go to Aus on a tourist visa and wait for the working visa to be processed there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalis Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 No unfortunately it stated if you apply out of Oz, you have to be out of Oz to receive it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
