30日間オーストラリア英語 — 22日目
ワーキングホリデービザの基本
Australia has been chosen by many young people who want to experience life abroad. The Working Holiday visa, which is called a subclass 417, has been designed for people aged 18 to 30. This visa allows you to work and travel in Australia for up to 12 months. You are permitted to study for up to four months. Many travellers who have arrived on this visa say it was the best decision of their lives. The application is done online, and a fee of around 640 Australian dollars must be paid. Your passport, which needs to be valid for the whole stay, is required. Health checks may also be requested. Once the visa has been granted, you have 12 months to enter Australia. It is recommended that you start planning early because processing times can vary.

Q: ワーキングホリデービザで、オーストラリアで勉強できる最大期間はどれですか？
I visited the immigration office which is located near Circular Quay to ask about my visa. The staff who helped me were very friendly and patient. My questions about working conditions were answered clearly. I was told that I could work for the same employer for up to six months. The office has been recently renovated, so the waiting area is comfortable. A ticket number system is used, and I was seen within 30 minutes. Free Wi-Fi is provided while you wait. The information that was given to me was very helpful. I have already recommended this office to my friends who are planning to come to Australia. If you have any visa questions, this is the place that you should visit first.
Reviewの内容チェック
Q: レビューによると、同じ雇用主のもとで最大何ヶ月働けますか？
オーストラリアではビザの種類を番号で呼ぶことが多いです。ワーキングホリデーは「417」、学生ビザは「500」と呼ばれます。「I'm on a 417」と言えば、すぐにワーホリだと伝わります。
1年目に地方（regional area）で88日以上の特定の仕事（農業など）をすると、セカンドワーキングホリデービザの申請資格が得られます。「I did my farm work in Queensland」は定番フレーズです。
