Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced the changes to help the nation ease workforce shortages caused by the spread of the Omicron variant.
International students will have the fees waived for 8 weeks from 19 January 2022 till 19 February 2022, while the changes will be in place for 12 weeks for Working Holiday Makers (till 19 March 2022).
The federal government last week announced a 40-hour per fortnight working cap would be removed for international students.

N0 Restrictions For Working Holiday Makers

From 19 January 2022, WHMs working in any sector anywhere in Australia may continue to work for the same employer or organisation without requesting permission.
To address the current workforce shortages, the Australian Government will not enforce condition 8547 which restricts Working Holiday Makers to work only 6 months for any one employer.
This arrangement will be in place until 31 December 2022 when it will be reviewed by the Government.
