Important reminders
01
Apply for your second year visa at least 6 weeks before expiry. Don't wait until the last week — processing takes time.
02
Keep every payslip from your 88 days jobs. Scan them the day you get them. You'll need to prove every day.
03
Check the postcode qualifies BEFORE you start the job. One wrong postcode and those weeks don't count toward your 88 days.
04
Set up superannuation with your first employer. Your employer pays 11.5% of your wages into super automatically. Claim it all back when you leave Australia.
05
The 88 days don't need to be consecutive. Work at multiple farms in different months — just keep proper records for each job.
