Yes, where it says "what type of visa are you applying for?", choose B, then it shows you further option of B1 or B2, medical is B2. Then of course, for contact in the US, put in the hospital address.

I say again, "sort of".
Considering Delta has been in the range of over 1M.

How much was your dollar rate 2014 compared to now?

olu101:


Thank you so much.


Please, can you advice me please. Myself and my wife will be applying at different date. She is going before me (childbirth) and I will be going later after a month cos am in Benin for business.
After she create her own account and apply, can I register my own details and apply through her own portal or I need to create my own account separately?

customised87:

Why not just create your own account separately when you are ready to apply?

Ask Delta to quote in dollars if possible, their exchange can be ridiculous.

heavenangels:

you are right I got my delta business class ticket for 1M184...to Dallas. I couldn't see the difference between the economy and business.......this days with the current exchange rate tickets are on the high side..

heavenangels:

I will suggest you all apply with your husband and your MIL, do not change your sponsor. let your husband still be the sponsor. just make sure you brand your husband better. all the best

Hello house, pls I'm new here even though I hv been following this thread for quite sometime. I recently travelled mid may to nj and stay with sil. Well she searched for a neighbourhood clinic for me after I arrived at 31wks saying it will be cheaper than the doctors office. I had no choice since I couldn't find one by myself so I agreed and had to pay $ 190 for first visit. Same day I was asked to pay $ 142 for lab and $150 for ultra scan. I paid all these n I decided in my mind not to go for any visitation again till am ready to give birth! because I'm on a budget. Alas! Just within a week, I started getting mails dropped for me at home and on opening saw $175, $600,$400 from lab and the clinic too. I called the lab but was told I had zero bal with them but I'm pondering why the 2 later bills were sent from them. I'm so pissed right now that I didn't discuss these bills with my sil because she told me from onset that the clinic visit will be cheap and I will eventually be referred to jfk hospital for birthing which we dn't even know what their cost will be on the long run, I had my first child in the UK but I only went in for emergency and that was what I was charged. This her own process of clinic is drilling my pocket cos I told them I'm a self pay and actually thought I should be discounted but no. I'm now praying no more bill comes from this clinic. Now my Question is...Shouldn't I be informed before these tests are run? Should I just wait till I'm am about to give birth and head straight to hospital rather than this clinic that just want to generate money from me because I was told each follow up visit will cost $110 bi- weekly. Anyone with useful information on how to go about this process will be appreciated. I'm stuck with her cos I hv a toddler otherwise I would just have ported to another state.

Good evening good people,

Please for a notarized letter of consent, does Houston accept notaries outside the US embassy or must it be done at the US Embassy?

Kindly respond as time is of the utmost importance.

@TripleKMama. Thanks for ur response, I wouldn't mind if u enlighten me more and I'm not sure if this is how or what is called pm. I sent a mail to you from this platform kindly help a sister. My email has some spelling from my user name. Thank you

Good evening guys,

Please those that gave birth in Houston and processed passport at Houston, did u have to notarize at the US embassy or will any notary do?

Thank you

sugah:

Same flight was 632 on Qatar with long layover. So, yea it was sort of a promo.

FinanceFitness:


I haven't checked any rate, but I'm sure they didn't convert at that rate. 307*1275 is not N1m.

Please ask for the USD option for your tickets, my last experience is that when you pay in dollars, you pay at a significant discount...I'm thinking airlines are factoring forward/ risk of depreciation at the point of repatriation into their ngn pricing.

heavenangels:

is 632k for business class or economy? if it's economy then it's not a promo ticket that's expensive. my friend got Qatar economy for 487k....

FinanceFitness:


That is easy, all you need to do is open a dorm account and request a debit card on that account. With parallel market rate under 400, $1,275 is under N500k.

Also, you can ask them if you can pay in dollars to their account directly.

It is amazing that a doctor would accept responsibility for your health with no additional prenatal care. Should any doctor take you as a patient when you are in labor, the price will be much higher since you have not agreed nor paid for any obstetric care. Please update on the final cost of your delivery since I presume this cannot end well, sorry.

TripleKMama:
Life happens. Even in naija
I've attended to many pxts first time ever during labor and u never see dem again! Just classify all of dem as High Risk.
Mnwile FYI, all of us from naija are termed High Risk no matter d volume and weight of d lab tests u brot!
Edited- dats why I started by asking if her preg has been smooth so far. And d previous one.
Abi no be d same person?
