tk8681: Do you already have an appointment ? If not please read the post below: I thot mihs had stopped collectjng foreign patients. Find out before leaving new york so that you dont get stranded Thanks so much,I was so scared when I read your post.I had to pick my phone immediately to call them and I was told the policy is for those that do not have an appointment yet,that my appointment still stands with them and i specifically asked if friends can still come from Nigeria but was told no,that a new policy have been passed. |

yuddiepro: @ Yuddiepro, I'm an October mom and I plan to give birth in Michigan. So far, I've contacted 2 hospitals there. 1. U may look up Oakwood Annapolis Hospital on Google or try oakwood.org. I contacted d financial counselor who said d hospital fees for vaginal (self-pay) is $4,500. You may also want to look up the ob/gyns that r affiliated to the hospital. I saw a Nigerian on the list. I'm yet to contact any of the doctors. 2. Also check Garden City Hospital on www.gch.org. They have their discounted price list for uninsured, self-pay patients on their website. Vaginal delivery is $3,950. It covers mother and baby (whatever that means) but it excludes physicians fees. I called to see if I could haggle further but was told that the prices on the site were the final. I've contacted 2 of their doctors. D 1st one said he would collect $3,000 (additional $250 for pediatrician and circumcision). D 2nd one said he would collect $2000 and that his bill covers both circumcision and pediatrician's fees. I was also told that my gestational age @ the point of registration would not affect the fees. I hope this helps. Kindly keep me posted on any better deal in Michigan. Thanks |

I am in dying need for assistance and advice, i and my wife was deny a B1/B2 visa some time in April, the reasons being that we don't have family travel history together. She is presently pregnant n she is due by Nov. My elder brother lives in Houston, i just want to know how good are her chances since her condition have not changed yet and i don't know if it's advisable to pay all the Dr Fee and part payment before going to for her next interview. I have about 4M in my acount, i don't know if that is strong enough to take care of her bills, since my brother lives in Houston, accommodation and transport won't be an issue. |

kindheart213: "Family travel history together" hmmmm excuse that touches... This sounds like our dear black lady. My own advice is 4M is more than okay to take care of her bills in Houston excl accommodation and transportation. Please don't make any payment b4 ur interview cos it will look desperate. Leave the money in your account and reapply when you must have gotten quotation from doc and hospital, and all other burden of proof listed by our dear Phema. Oya Tvegas, Nef, Phema and all other profs over to you. 1 Like |

Nasadiva: Thanks my sister.. It was really frustrating. The black lady was busying denying people, she didn't issue white paper to more than 4 people that i saw her interviewed. I have narrow my search down to Northwest Medical Center Houston and Dr Fagbohun from what i have read on this forum. I will make contact with them on monday. What other documents you think could help us with the VO? |

So, house. I came in through Newark with my hubby and 2 year old son. I was 34weeks. Tension was all over me. but then we got to the officers desk after a very long queue. I had planned my 2 year old to greet and charm the officer. My son said "Good afternoon officer" 3 times but the officer didn't reply not look at him. At this point, I don dey piss for bodii. he finally raised his head from the computer after about 4mins of smiling at the computer. Your cards and passport, he asked. We handed it over. why are u here? Hubby answered- for holiday and child........... (officer wasn't listening anymore) and "birth" came out of hubbys lips like a silent fart. where are u coming from? Hubby answered- Birmingham UK he went back to his computer for another 2mins. And asked hubby what do u do? Hubby replied. he took our finger prints and that how we got stamped in for 6 months. It was like a dream o. Infact, I reached for the toilet immediately I got to the baggage claim area. I wish all prospective travellers a successful POE story and most especially I wish myself and other expectant mothers safe delivery. Cheers! 15 Likes |

Nasadiva:You've said it all,you sef done bag PHD for this thing. It's just one of those reasons a VO can cook up if he/she doesn't want to grant your NIV application. There is no harm in the wife applying alone. |
