首先是一條已經實施的新規定：從2015年11月21日起，462籤證持有者在北澳大利亞地區可以為同一僱主工作12個月。
以下是移民局網站原文：
Up to 12 months work with one employer in northern Australia
From 21 November 2015, you might be eligible for an employment extension to work with one employer in Northern Australia beyond the usual limit of six months.
See: Working in Australia – six months with one employer
回到正題。關於462延籤的消息去年就出來了，現在這個是進一步的說明，目前還只是一個倡議，需要經過法律程序之後才能正式實施。有關實施的時間表將會在近期公布。
具體內容：
462籤證持有者需要在澳大利亞北部地區的農業、旅遊及相關行業工作至少88天，才能有資格申請二籤。
所謂澳大利亞北部地區包括北領地全境，西澳和昆士蘭州的南回歸線以北地區。大家看看下圖就明白了，虛線就是南回歸線。順便來學點英語——the Tropic of Capricorn就是「南回歸線」的意思。
以下為移民局網站原文：
Second Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462) initiative
This initiative will be available to participants from all of Australia's Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462) arrangement partner countries. It will be open to applications once the necessary legislation comes into effect. More information about the timeframe for implementation will be available shortly.
Subclass 462 visa holders who undertake three months (88 days) work during their stay in either the agriculture or tourism and hospitality industries within northern Australia, will become eligible to apply for a second Work and Holiday visa. For this purpose, northern Australia includes all of the Northern Territory, and those parts of Western Australia and Queensland above the Tropic of Capricorn.
All participants will be required to pay a new Visa Application Charge when they apply for a second Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462).
