I have applied for 175 Skilled Visa last year (CO has been assigned) including me, my wife and my son. Now we are bless by a new baby girl in the family. Can somebody help in following:

1. The documentation and passport of the new child will take around 30 to 40 days. Should I inform DIAC right now or I should wait for the passport?

2. What is the procedure to add new baby child in my existing 175 Visa application?

Thanks and regards

congrates for the baby doll.

if u have birth certificate, send that and inform ur case officer and mention that u have applied for the passport and that will take some time, meanwhile go for urgent passport as ur case is quite old.

I did not fill any form and just composed a formal email mentioning baby name, sex, date of birth etc.

Best to tell them ASAP so baby can be added. You can then send additional info like passport when you have them. If not you might risk visa being granted without new baby on and having to apply for a child visa with more expense and time.

Here is how - there is a form to send in.
