Questions about 6033
Does farm work in Carabooda (6033) count for the 88 days?
No. 6033 isn't on the official list for farm work (plant and animal cultivation) on either visa, so it won't count towards your days.
Does hospitality in Carabooda (6033) count for the 88 days?
No. Tourism and hospitality only count in Northern Australia, Remote and Very Remote Australia and four extra postcodes. 6033 isn't one of them, so a café, bar or hotel job here doesn't count.
Does mining in Carabooda (6033) count for the 88 days?
No. 6033 isn't on the list for mining on a 417 visa, and mining never counts on a 462 visa.
Does construction work in Carabooda (6033) count?
No. 6033 isn't on the official list for construction on either visa, so it won't count towards your days.
Does it matter where I live or where my employer's office is?
No. What counts is where you physically do the work. If you work in 6033 but your payslips show an office elsewhere, ask your employer for a letter naming the work site and postcode.
