Immigration New Zealand (INZ) offers Working Holiday Schemes (WHS) to young people, usually in the age-group of 18-30 years but 18-35 years in a few select countries. Working holiday schemes have cap limits which are now being changed.
INZ is adding one extra year’s worth of places to all capped Working Holiday Schemes for 2022. This means that those schemes that have already filled up for this year will once again re-open between 8 September and 1 December 2022.
