Step-by-Step Application Guide

  1. First round
  2. Second round

Application Period for the 1st tranche of 2013 WH

February 4 (Mon )- February 8 (Fri) 2013

Important:

The application period for the 1st tranche of the 2013 Working Holiday has been completed.

The required number of applications has been successfully submitted and no additional file numbers will be distributed.

If you successfully generated your file number and submitted your application package in a timely manner, please wait for the announcement of results for the 1st round. (15/02/2013)

The selection process based on applications’ order of registration at the post office will be discontinued starting from the first tranche of the 2013 Working Holiday category. Instead of a unique file number being issued to all applicants, in accordance with the new selection process, a unique application number will be issued only to the first 3,000 people, on a first-come, first-served basis. Applicants who generate their unique file numbers successfully will be able to move to the next stage of the application process. In other words, only applicants who have a file number can submit their applications during the application period. Applications will no longer be screened based on the order of their registration at the post office. For more detailed information regarding this change, please read the ‘Application Step-by-Step Guide: First round’ section.
