I have just written a letter now to the British high commision, hopefully it will help. But I hate sitting around and waiting for replies. Any info in the meantime would be appreciated.

Has anybody got any experience about obtaining a UK WHV from Ireland without having to travel back to New Zealand, or thier country of origin?

Hi there, I am currently living in Dublin on a working holiday visa which expires on April 1st and am wondering if I need to return to New Zealand to apply for a UK working holiday visa? I am 28 and will turn 29 in July.

Thanks very much for the advice, I really appreciate it! They definitely dont make things easy a? Cheers.

Yes it is a working visa, valid for one year, for Ireland only and my partner is Irish.

Hi, I am a New Zealander living in Ireland with my partner. I am here on a working visa and this expires on 1st April. We have been together for 3 years now (2 years in nz and 1 in Ireland) and living together for 2 years. Can anyone give advice on how we can stay together?
