Share ko lang din experience ko, since my wife is pregnant and due for delivery later this April. iho-hold daw ng clinic ung Health assessment nya until mgx-ray sya around next month, bawal kasi sa pregnant ang x-ray. Status ng health assessment ko na ngayon is "Health clearance provided – no action required" while kay wife is "Examinations in progress".
So no risk of DG na siguro, wala naman siguro nabibigyan ng DG while may pending pang health assessment db?
Hopefully my first contact na si CO by this month and para mainform ko din sila officially kay baby.

Yes I’ve had cases like this before and usually a note is fine to let the case officer know.
Pwede ulit magtanong? Yung iba sinusulat DG and yung iba Visa grant, may difference ba? At ano ibig sabihin ng IED? Salamat.

Gusto ko lang din pala i share sa inyo ang email ng consultant namin nung April 5:
I have managed to speak with someone at the GSM centre. She has confirmed that due to a backlog they are very behind in their processing. She gave a time frame of 3 months from the date of the requisition which would be May 2016. I will keep in regular contact with them and update you.
GSM Brisbane kami, so baka lang (assumptions ko lang to ahh at sana mali ako) may delay ang mga team Brisbane. Nag send kami ng request nung Feb 27 thus May 2016 ang sagot niya.
