Folks, I applied on march 15th. After reading through all the forum message, it looks like it is gonna be delayed to get file number. At the time of applying AINP, we were not having baby, but now we are planning and will have it soon. And, we are planning to change our apartment as well.

Do i need to update them now about baby in pipeline? or can wait till file number to come?

Any suggestions or similar experience?

Brinz,
Logically speaking, the right thing to do is to inform them after you deliver.

I agree with freeradical17 and moreover it becomes easy for AINP to update if you have a file no.
