Hello people

Can someone please let me know whether one is allowed to take a working holiday visa (WHV) if you have already submitted an application for residency (skilled worked) and waiting to hear from them? I say this because at the end of 2010 i would like to take up the 2 year working holiday visa to Canada that is available to Australian citizens but i also wanna move to Canada for good eventually so i wouldn't mind putting in an application for residency as well given that it takes a long time to get processed

so my questions is, Am i allowed to take a working holiday visa while i have submitted an application for residency?

What is wrong with you people? why don't you answer my threads and give me more advice?
probably because you didn't do any research as the question has been answered countless times as YES.

"8) Can applicants have both a pre-C-50 FSW application and a C-50 application?

Yes, applicants may have multiple FSW applications. The applicant can choose to either maintain the first application and submit a new C-50 application with a new processing fee; or withdraw the first application and submit a C-50 application. If an applicant chooses to withdraw their pre-C-50 application before processing begins, they will receive a refund. "
