    I think he means is he over the age limit. Yes unfortunately I think you are for a WHV.

    There is no age limits if you want go to OZ/NZ etc!!
    However I think there is certain age range for cheaper visa for those who are under 30-31???. but I might be totally way off - do check....and let us know!!!

    Just like what DenMan said above..go for it.

    Age limit for a 417 WHV is before 31st Birthday

    Age limit on a 4 Year 457 is 60 (I think)

    Age limit on Permanent Visa is 45.

    Check out this website for some good info

    yeah, you can go there on holidays, but you can't work, so you'll want to take a boatload of cash with you if you go.

    i went on a holiday visa when i was 18 because i didn't have the cash for a working visa and figured i could just work cashin hand there to get by, but it was a lot harder to find a job with no working visa and i ended up coming home after a month. totally wasted opportunity. :(

    There is a solution, like Central Europeans do who are not eligible for WHVs.... Economic priced study is open to all ages and student visa gives work rights during term, and full time during vacation :)
