OffshoreMig Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The Australian Government announced another expansion in the subclass 462 work and holiday visa scheme this week. This time the cap for Thai visitors - currently at 500 and fully filled for the past few years - will rise to 2,000. There appears to be a commitment to expand this scheme as the Government faces pressure from the farm lobby for a dedicated farm visa. Thailand wasn’t even on the reported list of countries targeted for expansion earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiBunny Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 AFAIK the current quota is filled on the first day that applications open, and there are always more applicants than places. It will be interesting to see whether this uplift does anything more than increase the number of applicants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
