@Phema, a big congrats on ur successful POE story, please i will be leaving mid dec and as wit the rate of dollar going up to 182 i cant afford to change naira, do u think i can hold some dollars like 3500 and hold enough pounds since that is what i have.. i hope this wont raise eyebrows oooo... abeg all the gurus in the house add to this... thanks

@ rali... Hi dear, u can apply for a canadian visiting visa, it dsnt take up to 3mths anymore, there are two options for u, either u apply online and go nd drop ur passport or u apply in person which takes a longer time.

if one is applying for a student visa, thats when medicals is necessary, also the visa fees is not too expensive, but the burden of proof is very cumbersome. u can give it a try, no interviews so u have to pad ur application very well, especially strong ties...

its same as US, u get ur babys passport immdtly, and thy have a nigerian embassy in ottawa.

Transportation system is better than us, just google and get good deals, but do not give up on giving ur baby the best future..

My 2 cents.

i bought my ticket in oct before the promo, i bought it 289k from wakanow

@9jabiggurl, i understand clearly, am neither a marketer or advertiser, and am pregnant due early next year, i jst decided to contribute and wondered why pple on the forum never mentioned dekalb hosp, so i tot they never knew abt it.. reasons why i dint leave any details and told @AyaSho to google and find out details.

i have really learnt alot from this thread, and i read it religiously from page 1 till now. Hope to share my POE experience soon, as i will be travelln second week in dec via Delta...

@AyasHo really, maybe things have changed, but my sister had n emergency CS, was with her all through her stay at the hosp, and it was really a good experience, i was impressed.

i have a friend who is presently in Georgia, and she has gone there and spoken with them.. she said she likes the place.

Hi AyaSHo,

am a slient follower of nairaland but active in other Nairaland Forum, am also giving birth in Georgia, but am using Dekalb Medical Hosp, alot of pple dnt knw abt the hosp on this forum, its a very good hosp, as my sister gave birth to her son 3 years ago, my docs fee is 2800 inclsv of all test scan and delivery, and hosp fees is also 5000 for normal delivery nd 5500 for CS, not sure about epidural but a friend is going to find out today.

u can google the hosp and also call them to find out their price...
