Welcome to the 2012 International Experience Canada Working Holiday initiative!
The IEC 2012 is now officially open. You can access the IEC Application and Declarations form and Instruction Guide on the Step-By-Step Application Guide on our website.
The quota for UK participants in 2012 is 5 350 places. Please ensure you read the information on our website carefully to assist you in preparing your application forms package. Please note that applications will be processed in the order they are received.
We hope to welcome you to Canada soon!
Update on processing times and service standards:
Due to an unprecedented volume of applications being received at the onset of the 2012 IEC initiative, we are currently experiencing difficulty in adhering to our service standards to process applications in eight weeks. We wish to advise our applicants that some delays in processing your application are possible, and that we will continue to endeavour to process applications as quickly as possible over the next few weeks.
