    This doesn't even make sence, if you have not overstayed but here more than 3 years? It's impossible to be here more than 2 years on a whv (legally)

    But it's false

    I once heard they were banning Germans from getting WHVs for a year because there were too many coming.

    I once heard the 3 months country work was just going to be abolished because too many Irish wanted to stay but couldnt be arsed going to the sticks.

    Ive heard "figures" quoted (e.g. they used to only check 10% of Irish 2nd year applicants, now they check 70%)

    I heard....a few more. Generally immigration law chat you see anywhere bar the media is a load of sh1te tbh (though the last point might be somewhat true- however the actual percentages, I dont know where people come up with them)
