    Yes, talk to either George Lombard or Peter Bollard, they're the ones usually recommended for medical conditions but autism is often a deal breaker as resources in educational settings are very expensive.

     

    Can we contact them even if we are overseas? tks

    As you have found out there are many threads about this on the forum. However you also have to consider what support you will be offered in UK and what support there may be here. Our schools are very light on assistance with learning and not everything is on public health here. So you may find that you have to pay for any special needs your child might have. My view with autism is that when I was young a child probably had autism and was just considered a bit slower or different and we all just got on with it, they grew up and had lives, ordinary lives as we are all different. These days everyone has to have a label and I am not sure that this is right. In my generation we all had friends who these days would be on some sort of spectrum and honestly difference makes the world go round and causes worry for no reason.

     

    Thanks for the comment..

     

    That's exactly my view too.. I actually see no problem with my son.. He might be delayed on some areas but he is improving each day and we are confident that he can overcome this later on..

    Hi Guys,

     

    Need help!

     

    We are applying for SC189 to aussie

     

    We have already lodge our visa.. Then during our medicals our panel doctor suspected something wrong with my 4 yr old son because she notice that he have a delay in speech..

     

    So we had our sons initial assessment and doctor says he have a moderate ASD..

     

    We provided the doctors medical report to DIAC..

     

    Then after a month CO informed us that my sons medical didn't meet the health requirement..

     

    what should we do next?

     

    There were old threads here related to ASD but... I'm not sure whats the best way to approach our situation..

     

    Any help or ideas are welcome.

     

    Thanks!

    Edwin
