88 Days to work Status

When they already worked in Australia, by helping them check if they completed the 88 days before they apply for the Second Year visa (to avoid rejection) and give them the opportunity to share their experience.  By sharing your experience you help the community of backpackers in Australia to find good jobs to get the Second Year Visa.  Since volunteer jobs like Woofing are no more eligible to get the Second Year Visa, it has become more difficult to calculate the 88 days of Regional Work.  The Working Holiday Visa (subclass 417) is a temporary visa which allows people between the ages of 18 and 31 to live and work in Australia for up to one year.  Being backpackers ourselves, we created this tool to help you calculate your visa days and to maximise your chances to get the Second Year Visa.  If you apply for the Second Year Visa in Australia, you must be in Australia when the visa is granted.  Before they arrive in Australia and when they just arrived, by giving them the opportunity to check on the map where are employers that offer Regional Work to complete the 88 days.  We are a couple of French backpackers that are currently on our first Working Holiday Visa in Australia.  This will help you to organize your trip and find a job depending of working seasons. 88Daystowork is created by two backpackers currently in Australia, has no commercial purpose and is totally free.  The second year visa is simply an extension of the first year visa, available up until the age of 31.  If you apply outside Australia, you must be outside Australia when the visa is granted.  They can also check comments and salary that other users shared to know before they apply how much money they can earn, and what kind of work they can expect.  Have a look on the map to find out where you can work 88 days and contact employers / farms to ask for a job.  Specified work means work that is undertaken in a specific field or industry.  Also, the designated regional areas basically exclude the main cities (Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, etc. ).  We worked for different employers during several months (fruitpicking, pruning, farmhands. ).
