medicals after baby is born

[gargamel47]

I was wondering about something: If upon receiving the referral for medicals a woman finds out she is pregnant and let's say at the embassy they say she can wait until after the baby is born. What happens after the baby is born? Is the couple supposed to go to the embassy or straight to the doctor? How long can they wait with the medicals after the baby is born?
I'm asking this because I'm worried about some relatives I have. Their baby is now three months old and from what I know they haven't yet scheduled an appointment with the doctor. How long will their file remain open? If they wait for like half a year will it automatically be closed or could they still go for the medicals and if not will they be able to apply again for permanent residence or will they forever be refused?

They should go to the doctor and complete the medical as soon as the baby is born. Their file will certainly not remain open forever. If they don't go for the medical, then sooner or later the file will be closed.

Yes - they can apply for PR again in the future but will have to start from scratch.

They need to add the baby to their application. They should have notified the visa office that the woman is pregnant and needs to postpone medicals and again when the baby was born in order to tell them that they will be getting the medicals when they get the baby birth certificate and passport. They need to re-do all forms that will have changed in their application because of the baby, they need to pay the fees for the baby and last but not least, they need the medicals for the mother and baby.

yes, of course they notified the embassy. It was even the doctor who recommended at the time that they wait because he didn't want the mother to go through the X-ray. HOwever, the baby is now 3 month sold from what I know (haven't been in touch with them that much) and I was wondering whether there is a deadline and if so what is it?
