Pregnant before lodging visa

chasingsidney

Question, currently pregnant and about to lodge our visa. Read somewhere na kelangan ko muna manganak bagu makapag lodge ng visa? Is there another option.

Would like to resign na kasi so i can get my backpay and give birth in australia sana. And start a new life na.

Unplanned kasi ang pregnancy ko. Palodge n kami ng visa so we can proceed to australia. ;((

Done ka Na sa medical? I think if done ka na sa medical, ok na yan. Not unless, di ka na clear to fly. Pero that will only happen pag malapit na due date

@chasingsidney tama si @xiaolico , if done kana sa medical bago ka naging pregnant, pede. Just inform your CO. Pero pag hindi ka pa done sa medicals, based dito, need mo muna manganak then take your medical, and also inform your CO.

ang alam ko kasi, hindi issue yung preggy. Problem Lang, before di ka puwede na x-ray pag buntis. Pero now, puwede na kasi may shield na. Bawal Lang talaga buntis kasi they can't inject you with the Mmr vaccine. If you have that vaccine na, Wala na problema

Nglodge kame ng busy last jan 31 i'm currently 26weeks pregnant. I hd my xray 1st of feb, ngask muna ako s OB ok naman daw basta my shield. Pero nasayo p din if gusto mo ituloy ang application or idefer mo until manganak ka. We just hope n magrant visa namin before ako manganak pra automatic australian citizen c baby tpos may maternity benefit din ako.

@peanut1505 wow thanks po! Blitaan mko about sa visa mo. At least pwede kasi gusto ko n mgsimula ng new life doon with our second baby

chasingsidney

@peanut1505 panu ung vaccine?

xiaolico

@peanut1505 pinas ka? Saan ka nag medical? Bgc? They didn't require yung mmr vaccine?

peanut1505

Guys sorry d ko pala nasabi n nandito n ko s australia, at wala sila nirequire n vaccine, ang additional test lang sa preggy ay hepa b. One day after ng medical namin cleared n kame both ni hubby.

xiaolico

@peanut1505 andiyan ka na pala. Congrats sa future Australian babies 🙂

peanut1505

@xiaolico oo dito n ko almost 3yrs n 457visa (dependent ni hubby) . Sana nga magrant bago lumabas c baby 🙂 thanks!

xiaolico

@peanut1505 Hindi ba automatic pag diyan pinanganak? Hindi parang US?

peanut1505

@xiaolico unfortunately hindi, dapat either citizen or permanent resident ang parent pra maging australian citizen. Unlike s US mas madali naman mgapply ng tourist visa dito kaya cguro din cguro sila 🙂

xiaolico

@peanut1505 tas question, am waiting for our grant kasi. If pregnant wife ko when we go there, mahirap na mag hanap ng work pag pregnant? Since mag maternity leave agad 🙂. Parang here sa pinas, almost impossible to get a job pag pregnant

peanut1505

@xiaolico i think yes mas mahirap maghanap pag preggy (just my opinion). kasi usually ang regular maternity leave dito is one year then pwde mgextend to 2yrs. kaya napapansin ko s mga supervisory position mostly lalaki kasi ung parental leave ng husband is 2weeks lang.

xiaolico

@peanut1505 thanks.

@kate26 ako kasi ang primary applicant. Kasal naman kami and this will be our second child. Ngwoworry lang kasi ako sa gastos, kaya parang gusto ko nadin magresign pra makuha back pay at maayus asap ung visa papnta dyan.

Hi! Same case tayo. I just received my ITA pero 8 weeks pregnant ako. Based sa nabasa ko sa comments, pwede na ako mgpa medical basta may shield ang xray? So walang maggng issue sa visa application namin? Magbbyad na kami ng visa pero kailangan po ba included na c baby or hndi pa?

Thanks sa comments.

@ahneniah I would just wait until I give birth to do the medical clearance. As a mother myself, I wouldn't risk it, sorry paranoid ako when it comes to this. Better safe than sorry. Anyway DIBP can wait. You just need to notify the case officer that you are pregnant and they will pause the process for you. Once you've given birth provide form 1022 along with your child's birth certificate and passport.

@RheaMARN1171933 thanks for the concern. Probably I would do the same. Anyway, paano po ako maccontact ng case officer? Do I need to pay first?
