Lou8670 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Do you think you'll be in Australia before you're wife can no longer travel? If not put everything on hold...my understanding is that you can't add the baby to your visa after its been issued. You would have to make a separate application for your child. Also, I've seen comments stating she won't be able to do the medical anyway as they insist on an X-ray...however, I have a friend who did go through the whole visa process whilst pregnant. You'll probably want to look into this further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainC Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Agree with Lou8670 above with respect to the medical, however aspects of medicals may be waived by the department. There is a migration agent called George Lombard on this forum and he may well be able to advise you further. As far as I'm aware an application cannot be put on hold, but exceptional circumstances may allow this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your wife is willing to have the medical, and a shielded (safe) Xray then just go ahead with it. If she would rather wait until the baby is born then advise the CO of this and the application will be held until after the birth, when the medical can be completed and submitted. When the baby is born he/she can then be added to the application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
