Hello everyone. Happy new year to us all Big congratulations to all new births @ Phema, merry mum. Thank God for my sister Nef. We will all continue to testify of his wonderful works in our lives. @moniyet sorry abt ur emirate experience. I flew emirate year and the Dubai -Dallas Was more roomy because it was an AIR BUS with upstairs and downstairs. In the spirit of giving back I successfully had a VBAC, last year November. My personal lesson: most hospitals in America don't do VBAC especially privately owned hospitals, so for those opting for VBAC try govt owned hospitals. |

Hello, did u get a response to this Ur enquiry?.Gone thru d thread. Didn't find any. I thot I had my mind made up on ElPaso but I am now worried seeing this. Do they really refuse entry if u have doctores parati letter? @justwise I hope I haven't broken any rules with my question again. Thank you. A friend mentioned doctores parati to me and that informed my choice of Texas. I have actually contacted them but I need first hand info from anyone who has used them recently. I think I read somewhere on this thread that their appointment letters are always in doubt at the POE. Can someone pls clarify this for me. I would really appreciate[/quote] |

Hello all, I had my baby on the 1st of jan but I didn't inform the embassy dat I was going to give birth in america cos I already had my visa b4 I got pregnant. My tummy wasn't big when I came in dec and I didn't have any challenge at POE. The guy didn't even know I was preg and I just told him I was here for vacation. I hope there won't be any issue when I want to renew my visa |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by Virtuousdiva: 10:42pm On Jan 11, 2015 |
RitRit: There are so many people who have used them and talked about them on the thread.Just try and read backwards.Secondly,it has never been mentioned that their letter of medical responsibility is rejected at POE.It is when using in to apply for visa that some VO's have doubts and this just started recently as some people who secured visas earlier used it.I hope its clear now. 2 Likes |

Thankful to God for journey mercy, Wifey n son are now in houston. POE was very brief and pleasant. CBP: why are you her Wifey; vacation n av baby CBP: did u declare dis at interview at d embassy? Wifey: yes CBP: I will check to confirm dis Wifey: yes, go ahead CBP: why u wanna av ur baby in the US? Wifey: cos its d best for she n baby, besides had complications with the first and lost 2 pregs last year CBP: how much do you have with you? Wifey: $9.9k CBP: any Naija money on you? Wifey: No CBP: you work in a hospital, so you don't av confidence to av ur baby there, why must u come to d US Wifey: repeated earlier response abt sure to receive the best servi CBP: calls another officer to take wifey to secondary inspection CBP: how much do u av? Wifey: $9.9k hands all over to officer CBP: counts all d notes CBP: proceeded to give wifey advise regarding paying all bills and collecting zero balance, ensure safe keeping of all receipt and av dem handy when coming d US for subsequent visits n embassy CBP: leads wifey to food scanning section, and met a nigerian and friendly banter ensued. Luckily none of the items were seized That's it, it took less than 40 mins, Delta was lovely provided wheel chair in lagos airport, wifey's seat was changed to allow son more room to sleep, wifey was assited all the way. She had someone pick her bags and wheel thru out. NB: for all travelling please ensure you leave home early cos of mad traffic leading departure area due to road to road blocade n presence of military men who do nuthg but look at you! 15 Likes |

bosebabs: Keep all your receipts and other documents because you may be asked when leaving the U.S. and during visa renewer. I really don't know why people hide pregnancy from the embassy and at POE even when they can afford to pay for the delivery. Good luck though. 5 Likes |

justwise: @Justwise: I am planning to apply for visa in Doha, Qatar as we reside andd work here. But so many mis information about from our Naija people here that if you tell the VO that you want to go give birth in US they may deny you visa because they will know is because of citizenship bla bla bla. I have tried to explain that is normal and hiding that you are pregant is even what they hate. But our ppl reasoning is always negative. I want to know if one can truely apply from any US embassy just because you want to go and give birth or is only happening in Africa (Nigeria) only because of the health standard. Because is part of what ppl are saying here. Please clarify. Thanks. |

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by dere5: 7:49am On Jan 12, 2015 |
hopefulme:I dont think you will have any problem if you travel with more than 9.9k, i think the important thing there is for you to declear the exact amount you are carying,fill it in tne form they will give you before landing and declear it when you get to poe.DONT WAIT FOR THEM TO ASK YOU BEFORE DECLEARING IT O. Or better still you and the other adult can split it among yourselfs and convince them at poe that what each individual is carrying belongs to him. This is just my opinion i stand to be corrected by gurus in the house |

Good day all, Please can anyone assist me with any sample letter of invitation from a US resident. My wife, son and I intend to travel to the US to have our second child. We intend applying for the visa and declaring our true intention. We have an aunt living there who is willing to accomodate us during the period. But she requires a sample letter of invitation which she can write to invite us. I do not want to just write any sample for her, I need one that would contain all the improtant information usually needed by the US embassy. Kindly assist |

labdej:I would advice you to go back and read this thread very well,,at least from the last 100 pages backward,you will find all the info you need for this venture. I dont think your auntys iv letter is one of the most important things you need right now, come to think of it you dont even need any aunty to invite you once you have evidence to prove that you can fund such a venture,start looking for hospital and doctot around your auntys location e..t.c. The most important thing is read this thread and do your homework. 2 Likes |

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by justwise(m): 10:54am On Jan 12, 2015 |
segbas: Don't waste your time listening to such people, some Nigerians will always look for a way to circumvent any legitimate system and think they are smart but the opposite is the case. If you are living legally in Qatar with a good job then you got nothing to worry about, the most important thing is to proof that you can adequately afford it without it affecting your economic situation back home. Good luck. 2 Likes |

Good day ElPaso NLers, I just got an email from Doctores Parati that if I need a personalized letter of medical responsibility from a doctor in Del Sol Med Center (as I requested), then I have to pay a $100 non-refundable fee. In light of the recent concerns on Doctores Parati letters at the embassy, I want to ask if anyone has paid for this personalized letter and still experienced issues. Thanks. @justwise....ejo o. Shey I am not spamming this time. I need info biko. |

Hallo my people. We welcomed a baby boy into the world on the 7th of January 2015, coincidentally January 10th was my wife’s birthday, so it’s been double celebration. I have also been busy changing diaper, rocking baby etc The experience was an awesome one, labor proceeded slowly so you could see me praying more than papa adeboye. Infact after the episode I asked myself if I could pray that much.lol. 18 Likes 1 Share |
