    Hi,
    Need advice on booking my WHV visa to Australia? Should I apply through the Australian Gov or through groups such as USIT for example? Anyone have any suggestions please? I understand that everything has paused at the minute. Also how important is the job you input on the form? I’m not in any of the popular needed jobs. Thanks in advance.

    Apply directly from this website. There's no need to pay another company. The job doesn't make any difference under normal circumstances but they may possibly prioritise people with specific occupations due to covid.

    It's hard to know when they'll start processing applications or when you could get a flight there but I wouldn't get your hopes up about getting there this year.

    Thank you. I already have my application filled out and ready to go but thought maybe I would need help getting a job. Yes I have no hopes for this year unfortunately. Hope things get as back to normal soon.
