Hi there.....im moving to australia on a working holiday visa ......was wondering if i apply on line do i need to prove i have sufficeient funds..as at the moment i dont but am not going till may 2004 and will have it b4 then and be able to prove it but want to sort my visa out....also is it wise to book flites b4 applying or awiting until after my visa has been granted.?

Does my visa start from the date its issued or the date I enter sydney?

Also my freind is coming with me but we jsut discovered that the WHV is only for people aged 18-30.........is there another way she can a pply for a similar visa...as she doesnt fit the criterea for a skilled worker.....or a working visa.....so im not sure what to do.....

any help greatly welcome.....cheers

Hi...my brother is in aussie at the moment on a whv..he got it in the post i think within 2 weeks, i dont think he needed any income proof, but he had a return ticket and proof of age ( on passport anyway ) your visa starts from the day you enter australia,not sure about the age thing though if he/she would get in you would have to enquire...hope this helps in anyway if not post a thread for alan.collett and he will let you know...
cheers
