Question WHV - Age limit confusion
Hello all - I am looking into obtaining a WHV and I'm running into a bit of mixed information that I hope someone here can clarify.

According to the NZ Immigration site, the age range for WHV for US citizens is 18-30 years of age:

United State Working Holiday Scheme

However, I am thinking of going through IEP/BUNAC which has an approved Work Exchange Scheme with the NZ Govt and according to their website, the age range for US citizens coming to NZ is 18-35:

BUNAC Eligibility Page

Does anyone know if the age limit has changed recently and perhaps Bunac has not updated their information or if Bunac has some special arrangement with NZ that exempts them from the 18-30 yr limitation?

Oh and I am 32 years old, hence my question :)
