Hello. I an Egyptian living in Saudi With my husband. I am 14 wks pegnant. I did the interview last week. But I said I am not pregnant I applied for tourism. I got the visa today yaaay. But I am scared of denial of entry. Should I send them an email about discovering pregnancy and chang in plans. Or shall I take my chances in the airport.

Please disregard those negative comments, feel free to post questions here.


@ your question. Since you denied being pregnant during the interview you are most likely to be sent back at POE. Think long and hard before taking the risk of travel for the child birth.

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to send Western union/money gram to yourself before you travel( I mean get someone to send it to you as a sender and then I will be the receiver, so upon arrival in the US, you will go and receive it from any outlet of your choice.

Please who has done this before..help a sister!!!! waiting on your responses...


Yes, you could be the sender and receiver at the same time and you can also get someone to send to you as well. The only issue will be if u don't make it to the US?
Thank you.

I think she should choose her POE with care and fluke it or travel quickly to use to visa first (in addition to wise POE decision) . She has made this mistake and am sure she now knows better.

Please don't write the embassy ooo. It's even better to forgo this one and travel for subsequent pregnancy than to have your visa revoked and get a 5yr or so ban.

Think well and decide whether to try it or just have this baby elsewhere. Good luck.

Chairmans and chairwomens. Ndi nwem na ndi m nwe. Good people. Great Nation. I throway salud o!
I dobale to the whole house for the prayers and good works.The prayers worked today. The people that unilaterally reached out to me and to those that lent a helping hand when I reached out. Una 7 much abi 7up!
It feels good to know I have people that will take bullets for me cheesy
So I went to Unity Ademola Adetokunbo. The CMO abi what what there is totally professional. No skoin skoin in his head at all. He started processing the stuff immedately.
But my people say that you do not stand at a spot to watch the masquerade. Na e me and my friend jejely go Stanbic. They asked us to sit. Does a man sit when his house is on fire? Mba nu. Na so the standing attract one fine black lady o. She asked if somebody had attended to us and we told her in a gentle voice that our travell date was today and we needed bdc and had prebooked .She took our details and gave to the Manager (God bless his father for not using protection grin) Next thing my friend received a call to come and collect. We filled the forms and ran to fund the account. Meanwhile in all this waka, our bags and baggages de follow us round VI.
So we were debited at 210.1 and we will start heading to the airport soon.

The hospitals always warn that the final billing may change in the event of complications. If you study USt billing sites you'll observe that complications always attract extra charges. I suffered this to the tune of $1500. May God save us from complications in childbirth.

The question is were you aware of any complications arising from your L& D ? Pele

You can get a refund but there's no guarantee as to the amount of time it'll take to process it. They rarely hand out cash. That said, did you use the doctor's letter at the embassy for your interview?

Yes, it's possible to get extra bill for surgical assistance. It doesn't necessarily mean you had any complications. I know 2 people that were billed the same amount by WHMC

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by mel3assy: 11:41am On Feb 10, 2016
It was my husband who applied. He prepared bank statement and id letter. But in the interview the VO asked for our plan our previous trips and his salary She didn't see any documents only verbal replys. After two days I received a message from aramex to collect my passport.

but if you go and hide your pregnancy you won't hide your baby on your way out, neither would you leave the behind in America or dump the baby's blue passport in America and in your next application you won't be able to hide it either, so decided wisely and be Truthful and upfront about it all and like they said choose an easy POE by so doing you have a 50/50 chance
