HELLO everyone!Does anyone know about where to get help. I'm on a bridging visa that does not give me a medicare card, I am pregnant with my partner that is an Australian resident, We have found out that to give birth in Australia we will need about $15000 AUD to do so. The issue is that we don't have that sort of money and we would like to see if anyone knows about some funding to help us, or anything else that we can do?

Have you checked up with any Filipino communities for help.

I take it your partner is not Australian ?? If he is then he may be able to approach social services for assistance.
