QT qml TextField is not showing cursor when loaded first time

I am developing QT cross flat form application for Ubuntu and Windows. My Question is simple but as bit new to QT, i am not able to figure it out. I have bellow code in QML. I am using QT TextField in my qml. When QML is loaded for first time i want id_username TextField should show cursor by default at initial position (0) which is not happening. When i click same TextField using mouse, cursor is visible at initial position. I am doing focus: true which is not helpful. Next, i added cursorVisible: true with that cursor is visible when qml is loaded, but i am not able to type anything(Input anything) till i click on the TextField. 

TextField
   {
      id: id_username
      objectName: "id_username"
      placeholderText: qsTr("username")
      color: "#000000"
      font.pixelSize: 20
      cursorPosition: 0
      selectByMouse: true
      anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
      focus: true
      background: Rectangle
      {
        anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
        implicitWidth: 200
        border.color: id_username.focus ? "#000000": "#36404e"
        border.width: id_username.focus ? 2: 1
        radius: id_instruction.height / 4
      }
    }

Please let me know what i am doing wrong. Is there any onLoad function from where can call forceActiveFocus()

try this in TextField:

onVisibleChanged: if(visible) id_username.forceActiveFocus()
