Hi Grace,
May I ask you what type of visa are you planning to apply?

Visa is not linked to this, but travelling is. Airlines may request a medical certificate from their accredited doctor to allow you to travel. They don't like to divert a flight because you're giving birth on board (don't forget your travel insurance also in case...).

Here is an example with Cathay Pacific: http://www.cathaypacific.com/cpa/en_.../pregnantwomen

Check the requirements on the airline you will choose for travelling.

I asked Grace what type of visa she is applying, because I knew somebody whose applied for a visitor visa and she was 4 months pregnant, the British Embassy turned down the application. To think that visa process takes few weeks, so by the time she got her visa and sorted out the plane ticket, she will be 6 months pregnant. If she granted 3 months visa then it means she have to go home on her 8th month pregnancy which I doubt to get a medical clearance.. so its a bit complicated.
I think if its fiancee there could be a chance to be granted as long as the sponsor can demonstrate enough accommodation and financial statements that she will not recourse to public funds and that they will get married before the visa expires.imho...

That's why medical insurance are required for travelling....

i thought it was keep your fingers crossed , i wouldn't risk it, come when your baby is born, the flight is a strain on most of us , 14hrs flight time and hours of waiting.. not good for you lady ..

but good luck to you and the bb what ever you do

My friend Ian married a Filipina a few months ago in Bagiuo.
He met her while she was working here in Crieff, Scotland, but she had to go home when her contract expired.
She has just got her "Spouse visa" after waiting 9 or 10 weeks, and she arrives here tomorrow!!! Daphne is 7 months pregnant!
We are all delighted for them both. Some of us know the sheer torture of
waiting for our loved ones.
Thank God she got it!!
