Hello house, Will poe officer allow a 34 weeks pregnant mum travelling to US for the first time entry? With all bills paid down. But what was stated at the interview was vacation. |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by boldbabe: 11:16am On Jan 15, 2015 |
nulygal: Kindly send a mail to the Lagos or Abuja embassy where you got your visa and explain to them that your reason for travelling to the USA has changed. You have to print out their response and go along with all your documents and receipts to show them at the POE. With that done, you should be fine. 3 Likes 1 Share |

nulygal:Of course he will, it's none of his business na, I stand to be corrected but I doubt if poe officers blink at ow far gone u r, it's ur airline's policy for flying preggies u need to find out and be worried about plus get ur fit to fly d way they want it. I flew at 35 wks and the Poe officer didn't even notice my belle until I told him I was there to av my baby. |

MamaTobenna: Its not easy to cope alone without help because the first one week after delivery, you cant do any other house chores except to carry your baby. I will advise you get someone to assist you after delivery. |

@SAkale: Any luck with your enquiries on Elpaso? A friend is considering using them but she doesn't know if she can rely on their letter of med responsibility. Dear US Birth Team I have been reading this trend and will like clarification on some issues i noticed..... Is it that it has been proved that EL Paso through doctoresparati.com is not a good choice or, PeaceNigeria and other new moms are just having a little misunderstanding that has led to confusing me a bit on making a choice. Kindly clarify the best option for Birth in USA. I will really appreciate this ASAP. ![]() ![]() Kindly respond anyone.... Thank you.[/quote] |

Good day members, I making inquiries for a friend of mine. She is not so good with using social media platform, so she needs to know if she can take another doctor/hospital's letter with her in addition with ElPaso's in case they have issues with the doctores parati letter. She intends to show them that she has contacted 2 different hospitals and might be using either. The only snag is that she will have to pay non-refundable registration fees at 2 different hospitals just to get their letters of medical responsibility. I need advice please. Thanks. |

boldbabe:You didn't even ask if she was pregnant before the interview and other circumstances surrounding her interview. Let's not abuse this change of intent thing. With the way things are going the letter will be taken with a pinch of salt at POE, and may eventually stop working. Thereby, making the innocent suffer. Little wonder the Lagos embassy changed their tone of response. Some folks will intentionally lie at interview or claim not to be pregnant with the intention of writing a letter to the embassy afterwards. Nigerians, we always abuse things ![]() ![]() 4 Likes |

Hi Guys, I got this from the USA VO Non-Immigrant Visa thread - I believe it helps answer a question a lot of people have about visas that have been obtained for previous purposes and being used for childbirth. It also relates to this popular email "letter of intent". Question Asked tiebe: Answer from VO abujaniv: 5 Likes |

Newmum0615: Hi, what was said if i can remember correctly was that dresparati are not medical doctors but agents and that some visa officers at the american embasy dont accept their letters as burden of proff. That said,some people have also gotten visas with their letters and others have also been turned back and told to ger another letter.. My candid advice to you is get anothet letter if you are going for visa interview. You can still decide to go the el paso route after you get your visa and enter the Us 1 Like |

@dere5: Thanks. What she intends to do is to go with both Dr Fagbohun's letter and Elpaso letter. If they refuse doctores parati letter, she will show them that she has a second doctor she has been in contact with. I hope that it will fly sha.

PrinceAdeAde: Have we not been sharing info here for ages? What we are against here is direct or indirect marketing which a lot people do here in the name of 'helping' people. If people want to market their business then they should contact the admin and discuss that. Please don't advertise accommodation, transport etc on behalf of anybody.
