rocky1005 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi All, I and my wife received our 189 visa grants in Oct 2018, I was the primary applicant in the application and she was listed as a dependent spouse. My IED was April 2019 and after we got our grants we came to know that my wife was pregnant. I travelled to Aus in March 2019 and got my PR successfully validated/activated but since my wife was pregnant she was unable to do so. We became parents in July 2019 and my wife then travelled to Aus and got her PR validated/activated in Aug 2019. We were planning to permanently migrate to Aus in early 2020 but that is when Pandemic hit the world and we had to postpone our plans. I recently came to know that there is something called "change of circumstances" and I have following questions related to that: 1) According to DIBP, if the grant is "offshore" one has to inform DIBP about the child's birth until he is "immigration cleared". I (main applicant) cleared the immigration before my IED and the birth of my child so do I need to inform them about the birth? 2) My wife activated/validated her PR after the birth of the child, will it become an issue? 3) If for any reason they refuse the child visa for my kid (on eligibility or health grounds), will they cancel our 189 visas as well? Please help with your opinion on this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
