so if the mother's Australian-born the child will be an Aussie Citizen too ? so no Medical required ? ( or did you mean the child is Australian born but not the mother ) and automatic Parental Rights etc are a UK assumption......what country are you in robin?

Dear Freesia,

Thanks for the reply. My situation is in Australia. My child is Australian born and we (my ex and I ) still overseas residence and not permanent in Australia.

thanks...

I would seek advice from a solicitor ., where kids are concerned and the non emigrating parent is unwilling to co-operate In my oppinion it's the safest option

I can't thank you enough.......

I'd have a quick talk with a family lawyer and ask about parental rights 1stly,

 

Do you have contact with your daughter, do you have her for wkends etc if not then the honest answer is you'll have to go to court to fight for visitation access,

And if you don't, you'll need to carry on with the application without her having a medical. I don't think it'll hinder your application but it'll make it difficult for her to migrate later if that's what she chooses or it'll be more costly,

I'm unsure I didn't have this problem I got my kids their medical by telling my ex a little lie and booked it for when I had the kids that wkend.

Dear StevenLozza,

thanks you so much for your information. I don't have contact with my daughter and I haven't applied for visitation right yet. As far as i know her mother already applied for her passport as Australian born and remain in Australia more than 10 years. My only concern i don't want to loose my child's right as a father, regardless what her mother wishes.

I'm not a lawyer, but if you were married then you automatically have parental rights over your daughter so that won't change, if you did not marry your ex then I'm pretty sure you won't have parental rights over her anyway, you need to fill in a form for that and get your ex to sign it, as a child born before Feb 2004 (dont quote me) won't give the father automatic parental rights regardless of the name in the birth certificate,

 

Call the hospital doing the medical and ask if they accept birth certificate as a form of ID for your daughter, if they do book the medical for a date when you know you'll have your daughter.

Job done.

Thank you so much for the information. My daughter born in July 2004 and i am not married to her mother. I wanted to but i couldn't as i found out that she was cheating on me coz of photographic proof which, with immigration. I am not understanding how to sort this problem out. My agent already contacted her mother and she is not responding. They (agent) said way around alternative there but still noting happening... as my agent still trying to make her understand...

Your application will be considered without the child having a medical,

 

I had the same issue with my x partner,

 

I managed to get birth certificates for my kids and the hospital accepted them as form of ID, and got the medicals done without my x knowing, it's nothing invasive anyway a couple of questions and a listen to the chest,

 

Get yourself along to the local birth, marriage and death place and order a birth certificate for your child, also double check with the hospital that it is acceptable form of ID, I believe some hospitals will only accept a passport but my 1 accepted either a birth cert or passport.

Dear StevenLozza,

Thanks for the information. My daughter is 10 years old and i already have submitted her birth certificate with my application (186). Even i pay child support every month for her and I already have sent all the supporting documents to them (DIAC). Just because my ex partner not co-operating for my daughter's medical and I lose my right of father in the future that's not a fair deal for immigration.

Any comment on this?

Dear guys,

I need help. Anyone has idea on this issue most welcome to drop couple lines for me please. I would be really grateful.:no:

My situation is, Upon break up with my ex, I recently individually lodged my 186 ENS application. Nomination has been approved & DIAC now asked for medical to undergo and there problem begins. As my ex partner not giving permission to take my daughter (only child) for her visa medical. But from immigration they said, all non-migrating dependent must undergo medicals. I don't know how to solve this problem as it's not in my hand but my ex's and for this my application is on hold.

Please let me know what are the options available to solve this problem. DIAC said this has to be done (i.e. medical for my child), as in case of death or injury of my child's primary guardian (i.e. my ex), i have to do her medical so that i can look after her in the future as next guardian.

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee................:arghh:
