I am having 417 working holiday visa. But on my ATO record, it's showing as "no" of the WHM status. I did check for the answer of revising the status only by being updated by a data transfer from the Department of Home Affairs.


However, after checking with my information on the Department of Home Affairs, it does show as "Working Holiday Maker".


Why the stauts of ATO & the Department of Home Affairs would be different? And how can I revised the correst status on ATO record.

Hey @ShinJiunHou,


Yes, that's correct the only way to revise the status is by a data transfer from the Department of Home Affairs. You'll need to contact them to have this done.
