Hi
I am seeking advice on my situation,
Me and wife got Resident class visa under Skilled migrant category in the month of September 2012.
We informed our Case office about the future baby, before we got the visa, Now I have moved to Auckland and started working.
And I wanting to include my child in my application of residency. But Visa CO has refused to do so, and suggested me to apply under Dependent Child category.
If I do so then it will be a fresh application for the New born baby and it will follow its own life cycle, Which will take six to nine month for getting immigration officer assigned to it In that situation my wife's Visa will expire.
I believe that I should apply for tourist visa for my child now, and then apply for dependent child from Auckland.
Any help will be highly appreciated around this situation.
Regards,
Ashish
