QUESTION
Hi there!
I’m Australian and I have an approved Working Holiday Visa, but am wondering if I can work full-time (albeit for a max of 3 months per employer), or whether only part-time hours are allowed?
Also I have received an approval for the visa from the Immigration Department and have to leave Hong Kong for it to be validated…can I just leave for a day?
Is the purpose just for my passport to be stamped at Immigration on re-entry to Hong Kong Airport?
Many thanks for your help!
