Hi there,
I will be finishing employment with my sponsor next week and I wish to transfer from my sponsored 457 visa to a working holiday visa.
I have never had a working holiday visa and plan to travel to New Zealand the weekend to apply for the 417 visa. I am Irish.
I can only leave 2 days (Saturday and Sunday) for my 417 visa to be processed as I am still working during the week.
Are there any issues I may face? I've heard of a lot of peoples 417 visas being processed in a few hours. Does this only happen Monday - Friday? Can I work my notice with my sponsor on a 417 visa instead of the 457?
Thanks in advance for any advice with this!
