hanaknight12 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) Hi Guys, I've recently been following the progress of the 2nd yr WHV changes regarding specified/regional work & just have a few questions - hopefully you'll be able to help my confusion! I'm flying out in October and intend to do some regional work ask travel round, however, a lot of the contacts I have are not offering paid work - only a WWOOFING type role. If I were to complete some of my work unpaid before the rules came in, would I be able to use that in lodging my application for my second year or would I have to start again completely and find purely paid regional work? Slightly concerning as most places seem to only offer WWOOFING style roles. Thanks in advanced!!

Guest51810 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 As far as I know you could use some of the work until the changes come because i read that it doesn't affect people who do it before. However I don't think you would get that much done before it does actually change. Maybe best emailing immigration? In a way I get the thinking behind the changes but its just going to suck for people who want their 2nd year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanaknight12 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 I've sent an email so hopefully I'll get a response soon! Ive heard the same. I'm hoping to at least get started - I've been told that apparently it will count towards it but after the changes come in you'll need to comply with the new rules. Fingers crossed something becomes more apparent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
