Default When to buy a Working Holiday Visa (WHV)

Hi,

I was wanting to know when the best time is to buy a Working Holiday Visa. I live in the UK and am planning to go about November. I hav heard that they are not issued until September. Does this mean I have to apply around that time or can I buy one now?

Also, I was looking for a contact telephone number on the WHV website but couldnt find one. Does anybody know a contact number for the Visa Offices so I can phone to enquire about things? Cheers

Best to apply asap. You might as well get it sorted and its one less thing to worry about. Once it is granted you have 12 months to arrive in aus. For enquiries try ringing australian consulate in london (sorry don't know number).

Apply now. If this year's quota is full you can always try again in September.
