bonjour
mon fils (22ans)a pris un visa pour travailler 1 an ET 1 visa touriste : il a payé les 2, en fait il ne veut que le visa travail...
arrivé a sidney il se rend compte qu il n a que le visa touriste.
est il possible d'annuler le visa touriste et de ne reprendre que le visa travail sans etre obligé de quitter l australie?
la il est a sidney bien embété...
si qqun connait la solution ou a deja eu le meme probleme
il est obligé de sortir du pays pour faire valider son visa de travail,
le plus court serait d'aller en NZ et revenir,
il n(a pas d'autre possibilité
comme disent les Québécois, il doit faire "le tour du poteau" et revenir
😊
schawna
la réalité est beaucoup plus intéressante que ses rêves....
le mieu c est qu il parte en nouvelle zelande qu il fasse sa demande et puis apres autorisation c est bon il peut revenir en australie ceci dit je ne comprend pas qu il ai payé pr le visa touriste qui est gratuit et pour trois mois!!
Oui, il faut aller au bureau de l immigration au 36, Lee street le faire annuler. Si il veut passer au bureau chez nous 327, PITT street, 17 eme etage, societe GOSTUDY je peux verifier avec notre juriste a l immigration ce qui est preferrable. Nos services sont gratuits car finances par les universites et ecoels australiennes.
Bonne journee, si d autres questions n heistez pas a me contacter a french@gostudy.com.au
Bonjour,
c est en faisant d interminable recherche sur le net que je t ai lu. Tu as ll air de tres bon conseil> Nous sommes en grande difficulte>
Voila, nous sommes un couple en tour du monde ou nous avions planifier 6 mois en Australie avec le WHV. Mais lors de notre arrivee en bali, on nous a vole notre sac avec nos 2 passeports. Nous allions avec sur internet pour faire la demande sur internet du WhV. Le site etant en maintenance, nous n avons pas pu le demande>
Notre vol pour Sydney est le 1er mai et nous n avons toujours pas les nouveaux passeport d urgence. Comment pouvons nous faire pour accelerer notre demande du WHV des reception des news passeports? De plus, ces passeports ne sont valides que 12 mois, est ce suffisant pour nos 6 mois en Australie?
S il vous plait, nous avons besoins de vos conseils.
Merci beaucoup

LA super nouvelle: vous n aviez pas encore fait la demande, ouf!
Le WHV vous arrivera normalement en 24h dans la boite mail, au pire en 5 jours ouvrables, pas de stress.
Malheureusement impossible de demander ce visa tant que vous n avez pas de passeport, ou au moins que vous connaissiez le numero de votre futur passeport avec dates de validite.
Pouvez vous eventuellement retarder ce vol? Sans passeport et le visa WH qui correspond impossible d entrer ici, meme avec un visa touristique.
Si vous voulez ecrivez moi a french@gostudy.com.au et je vous envoie la liste des reponses a mettre pour obtenir votre WHV comme une lettre a la poste.
Pas de probleme que le passeport ne soit valable qu un an pour l obtenir. Il faudra toutefois quitter le territoire avant la fin de validite ou aller a l ambassade de France demander une prolongation une fois ici.
Salutations,
Philippe.

je pars comme au pair en janvier et je me demande si je peux avoir un autre visa que le visa working and travelling etant donne que je naurai pas de fiche de paie...
que me recommandes tu ?
Si ce n est pas le visa working holiday reste le visa touristique qui peut etre de 6 mois ou un an par exemple mais tu devras sortir du pays tous les 6 mois.
Beaucoup d etudiants a nous qui font cela ont parfois eu des problemes avec les douaniers en rentrant dans le pays a nouveau au bout de 3 mois. Si tu peux passer par le working holiday je te le conseille vraiment. A moins que ton sejour ici ne dure moins de 3 ou eventuellement 6 mois evidemment.
Pardon!
je revois mon mail par hasard et me rends compte d une erreur de ma part, ce svisas touristiques t imposent de sortir tous les TROIS mois, pas 6. C est a chaque retour qu ils vont te creer des problemes a la douane.
je me suis donc inscrite en ligne pour le visa working and travelling et la le pompom 😮on me demande un chest x ray (ce que cest effrayant le nom ahah), je suis actuellement volontaire en republique dominicaine (si javais su je naurai pas dit que javais vecu dans dautres pays avant) et je ne rentre que le 23/12 en france et loin des grandes villes.
Est ce vraiment obligatoire? si je le fais combien de temps apres tombe le visa, et si je ne recois pas le visa avant de partir, que faire?... bien sur je ne savais pas tout ca et jai deja pris mon billet (si javais du attendre 15 jours avant le depart ca maurait coute plus que bonbon) et je dois menvoler le 24/01...
bref je suis un peu dans lembarras...🏴☠️
si tu as des conseils ils seront plus que bienvenus...
merci
Tu as probablement indique que tu es dans un pays a heut risque pour au moins 3 moins et donc ils te le demandent... tu aurais mieux fait de ne pas le dire effectivement.
Si tu viens en visa touristique ici tu devras sortir du pays pour pouvoir demander ton working holiday.
EN egenral tu recois le visa WHV dans la semaine de la demande. Devoir apsser par l etape "visite medicale" peut te le retarder d une dizine de jours a 2 semaines peut etre. Avce la periode de Noel tout est plus lent au ministere de l immigration.
Je te conseille de faire immediatement ta visite medicale ou que tu sois (je peux te donner l adresse du docteur accredite a l imigration australienne en republique dominicaine si tu veux), ou sinon de retarder ton avion...
et bien ca nest pas tres rassurant humhum jai regarde la liste il ny a pas de medecin acredite en republique dominicaine (jaurai adore le faire ici) ... donc faudra que jattende mon retour en france... ca va etre chaud soit a lille maman ma pris un rdv le 22 a 11h30 sachant que jarrive si tout va bien a laeroport de bruxelles le 22 a 9h30 pas despoir ou bien se sera paris debut janvier aie aie je suis pas possible.. si tu as des plans... dailleurs ca me fait penser que je pourrais demander sur bruxelles ...
merci ++
alors j'ai fait mon chest x-ray le 28/12 (pour obtenir mon visa working holiday demandé en novembre depuis un pays ou il metait impossible de faire la radio des poumons) car le 22/12 jai manqué le rdv après 8h30 de retard avion a cause de la neige, ca a ete depose en poste le 30/12 au soir et depuis toujours pas laccusé de réception, je pars donc du principe que je naurai pas mon visa a temps...
Ne peut on pas entrer dans le pays tout de meme ? en touriste ? il doit bien y avoir une solution... je voulais appeler lambassade daustralie en france mais c'est une boite vocale insupportable et je nai personne au bout...
Auprès de qui puis je me renseigner fiablement et rapidement ?

My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency?
- When did you start preparing for the USMLE?
- What advice would you give to someone still in medical school?
- Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids?
- Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency?
- What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!
Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...
What price should I expect to pay for a modest small apartment or a large room in a bedroom community in Quito? Are restaurants and food expensive? And which airline is best to travel from Montreal? Thanks for your answers
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has already had the experience of working abroad?
I don’t have a specific country in mind yet, so I’m open to hearing about your experiences on this topic—the pros and cons, etc.
Hi there!
I’m a young Malian looking to work in Morocco. Besides a passport, what other documents are required at the **Moroccan** border?
Thanks for your help!
Hi there. I’m planning to move to Luxembourg around December 2025 or January 2026. I’ll be looking for a job and settling in. My question is: is it too complicated to find housing? Is the job market more advantageous and easier than in France? I’m open to any information that could help me.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D
I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...).
Thanks again!
Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies.
PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant.
In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there?
Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on!
Thanks for your feedback!!
Hi there,
I’ve been living in Bali for a month now, but unfortunately on a VOA visa. I’m looking for a European company that’s set up in Indonesia. I’m in electrotechnical maintenance—air conditioning, cold rooms, 220V/380V electricity. I’ve been a tradesperson for 3 months and can bring my full professional toolkit. If anyone’s interested, let me know!
You can send me a message.
Best regards,
I’d love to go to Japan to travel, and if things go well, work there too.
Has anyone tried finding a job there? Is it even possible without speaking Japanese?
I’m thinking of starting out in restaurants (dishwashing or serving) and then moving into my field, IT.
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga.
To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that...
I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
I'm looking for an au pair who'd like to come to Bournemouth in the south of England, and I'd love to know what the best websites are to find one, please.
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background:
• I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*.
• I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor.
• Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience:
• I work as an *Employment Counselor*.
• I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0.
• I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles?
We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!!
Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin.
I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well:
I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers?
First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand?
Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]
Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol
Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
