As far as I can tell, the cut off age for working holiday visas for both New Zealand and Australia are both 35. The official immigration sites quote the age limit of 30, but the licensed immigration agents seem to be able to pull off 35.</p>
<p>This sort of thing might change at any time, so check these sites for yourself:</p>
<p>Immigration NZ: <a href="http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migrant/stream/work/workingholiday/">http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migrant/stream/work/workingholiday/</a><br />
Immigration AUS: <a href="http://www.immi.gov.au/">http://www.immi.gov.au</a> (use the visa wizard, it&#8217;s rad)<br />
BUNAC: <a href="http://www.bunac.org">http://www.bunac.org</a><br />
SWAP (Canada): <a href="http://www.swap.ca">http://www.swap.ca</a></p>
<p>I do appreciate that I can enter both countries for free with no Visa. However, I am rather sad about the working holiday visa cut off. I don&#8217;t really see what the point of an age cap is on that sort of visa. Both countries benefit from temporary workers (primarily agriculture), so why cap it? Are they afraid that some 36 year old will break a hip? If you happen to be the Immigration Minister for either country, or the Queen, I would be really interested to hear the logic behind the age caps.</p>

<p>ps: I&#8217;m 36. I knew I should have gone last year, damnit.</p>
