7 months ago I applied for my Canada Working Holiday Visa.
The whole process took 4 months!!
There was a long process for each stage as you had to submit a form and then wait to get a response back. Get a police check, submit it then wait to hear back again.
Another long wait and you receive a letter on the Canada government website to visit one of their processing centres to complete your bio-metrics.
This includes your fingerprints, photo and a payment completing your Visa application.
I am working on creating the step by step process for the Working Holiday Visa Application so that anyone else who wants to, can with ease, apply for the job knowing they didn't miss a thing.
I recommend doing it straight away as soon as you determein what sort of travel you are doing. A working holiday, temporary job, or just a holiday.
Apply for it now because it takes a good while.
