Frequently asked questions

What is the 88-day farm work requirement for a second WHV?+

To be eligible for a second 417 working holiday visa, you must complete at least 88 days of specified work (farm/regional work) during your first WHV. Pacific Visa Group can review your employer declarations to confirm they meet the requirements.

Can I change from a tourist visa to a student visa onshore?+

Yes, provided you are lawfully in Australia and do not hold a visa with a "No Further Stay" condition (condition 8503). Pacific Visa Group can assess your current visa conditions before you enrol.

How long does a partner visa take?+

The temporary partner visa (820) is currently taking 18–24 months. The permanent stage (801) is assessed approximately 2 years after lodgement. The timeline depends on your relationship evidence.

Can I work full-time on a tourist visa?+

No. Working on a tourist visa is illegal and can result in visa cancellation and a ban from Australia. Pacific Visa Group can assess the right visa for your work intentions.
