While it seems like a simple application, missing documents, misunderstood age or passport requirements or health and character issues can lead to delays or refusals. In addition, if you want to apply for a second Working Holiday Visa to extend your stay in Australia beyond 12 months, you will need to ensure you meet the regional work requirements — and be able to prove it.
The truth is: It is more than just a travel visa. It can be your first step toward a long-term future in Australia — if you plan it properly.
At GM Migration Lawyers, we make sure you get the right advice, right away. Whether it is your first visa, your second or third-year extension or you are looking at options to stay longer (such as Student or Skilled visas), we are here to help.

Not Just Migration Agents. There is a Difference That Matters.
A Working Holiday Visa might seem straightforward — but if you are planning to stay longer, switch visa types or have complications in your history, expert legal advice can make all the difference.
At GM Migration Lawyers, we are qualified Australian lawyers, not just migration agents or consultants. We help Working Holiday makers not only secure their visa, but also navigate the bigger picture — from extensions to long-term migration pathways.
Here is why that matters:

Whether you are applying for your first Working Holiday Visa or your second or third one, we will make sure you meet all the requirements (like specified work) and avoid costly mistakes. If you are planning to transition to a different visa, we will map out the best legal path forward.

Online advice and forums are full of outdated or misleading information. As immigration lawyers, we give you accurate, up-to-date legal guidance tailored to your circumstances — especially if your case is not “standard.”

Got your application refused? Didn’t meet the work requirements? Overstayed or had a past visa issue? We are experienced to represent you with appeals at the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART). We can also represent you at the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, unlike agents or migration consultants.

Getting a Working Holiday Visa might seem straightforward, but what happens next is where things can get tricky.
You might be unsure about meeting the requirements for a second or third Working Holiday visa. Maybe you have already done farm work but do not know if it counts. Or perhaps you have fallen in love with Australia and want to figure out how to stay longer — through sponsorship, study or skilled migration.
That is where I come in.
As a highly experienced immigration lawyer, I help Working Holiday makers avoid common mistakes and make smart, strategic choices about what comes next — whether it is extending your stay or planning a transition to a more permanent visa.
When we work together, I will help you:
So whether you are here for a year or thinking about something longer-term, I will help you stay informed, avoid legal risks and get the most out of your time in Australia.
