Hey guys... Im talking someone through this for tomorrow and i actually forget myself haha for stage one. Essentially

1) Be logged in around 8.55pm Irish Time
2) Refresh Page Until WHV Category Becomes an Option
3) Tick that and put in your DOB, Nationality and Email
4) Hit Complete
5) Outside on the overview page hit Submit

6) When / If that pages then loads through is there another page where you have to browse for your Passport Scan and CV and upload them or can they be uploaded already? Also is there more information to be ticked / typed in ?

I forget lol. It was such a fast blur when i did it first.

After you hit submit you put in password again then you're done!
You get message hours later asking for passport scan etc.

Also I would recommend restarting computer before logging in.
For round 1 at 7.40 I went to log in but was told password was invalid. Restarted computer and password worked. This happened to a few I think.

Am I imagining it or did we have to enter my password number on the same page as DOB??

I'd say they will 100% be gone within the same amount of time as round one. I'm dreading it already.

Surely tomorrow they'll accept more than the quota so people can go on the waiting list. There is no way all the people who got in during round one will be granted visas and the same goes for round two.

Best of luck to everyone applying. Hope you all get sorted.

Not really. Even people who forgot middle names got through somehow! (Going from people on Facebook groups)

Last week I would have said the second round would go in half hour but going from amount of people on Facebook enquiring recently, it's going to be 3 minutes!

Hey guys so I'm doing the Kompass application requirements section and I'm on the one marked "IEC category", but the working Holiday option isn't listed, so does that appear when it opens tomorrow at 9?

Cool, thanks. I had a mild heart attack that I suddenly had the wrong date. So it opens at 9pm tomorrow, right? I'm just incredibly paranoid about getting the time wrong as well.

Yup, 9PM sharp. If you look through last few comments you will find tips when applying.

Afraid not, am going to email them today to ask what's going on. I feel like I'm the last person of Round 1 still waiting.
