Hello beautiful people, I got into the US on Sunday via JFK with my 3year old. POE was hassle free. I was asked my purpose and I told them vacation and childbirth. He asked how much I had on me and I told him.It was below $10000 so I wasn't to declare. All he said was congratulations and make sure you pay your bills. Sent to agriculture but my bag wasn't checked and I was free to go. Glory to God. Now waiting for my 1st appointment. Thanks a lot for all the help and info 7 Likes |

[quote author=trendivaa post=37628527]Great! It is necessary to explore all alternatives jare. I sent two emails now to Dr Fagbohun but not received a response yet. Hopefully he responds today. In the meantime can you forward the quote you received to my email (iyawoade01@gmail.com) Also contacted Dr Glen Morgan and only gave Dr's fees so will need to contact Houston NW Medical center for remaining fees. Accommodation will be decided after I conclude doc/hosp plans although I am also considering In town as it appears to be my cheapest option at the moment ( compared prices with precious cedars Will keep you posted if I find anything more reasonable KINDLY ALSO FORWARD THE QUOTES TO ME....I INTEND TO USE THE SAME HOSPITAL MY email: jacklens336@yahoo.com.

Experienced mamas and papas in the house. Pls I hav some quick questions. I would appreciate if anyone can answer them. 1) Wats the best bank to open an account with. The capital one near my hosts's is asking for tax I'd or utility bill with my name on it which I don't have 2) For those that travelled with toddlers what did u do with them when u went for ur doctors appointments. Thanks in advance |

Oyin15: 1. Bank of America, Chase Bank, US Bank...are the foreigner friendly Banks. You can check Phema's post on her experience with one or two of them. They usually require a second form of ID e.g Driver's license in addition to your Passport. 2. No idea! |

Someone dat travelled with a toddler pls help me out |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 2 by FinanceFitness: 10:28pm On Sep 03, 2015 |
I travelled with my mum in law too, so basically left them when I go for appointment. However, based on watching mums that travelled with toddlers alone, here are the options they used: - take the toddler with them - take the toddler to a daycare centre - got nanny for those days - leave the toddler with a fellow preggy - particularly if you live in an apartment and already made friends - most people often use this.

Yes she can. I've used both cities: Elpaso accepts only embassy notorised consent form whilst Houston accepts any notary public. Any notary will do in Houston. Was at their office this Monday with my random notarized form and I have my passport. However, though my husband came to Elpaso last year, everyone had to go to the embassy after delivery for the accepted one. ozycy: 1 Like |

I am so grateful to God for coming across this wonderful thread...Many selfless people here, God bless you all. I specially want to thank those that posted their negative experiences so we learn and not fall victims, not everyone is this kind...For Nef,Modath, and on Ochio.....lol can't remem the posters name that was sent back sometime back from Chicago, I thank u all @tvegas, Phema, Olokings(ur last min advice), beryl, gosh! Can't type all ur names here but thanks for ur tips Had my visa b4 I was preg, used it alrdy but I did all d necessary things.. Chose JFK as POE, used AF/Delta from Abj-Paris-JFK-Chi, got fit to fly from ports health after the one from my Dr was checked, paid 2k Flew in at 33weeks 3days not really showing so CBP didn't knw I was preg Asked for my passport and boarding pass, after which he asked for address of where il be staying, as I was about bringing it out from my bag he said never mind I see it on ur landing card. He then asked to verify the amount I declared I answered in the affirmative and asked why I was travelling with such cash, so I said I was here for holiday and childbirth to pay all my hospital bills. He said he's sure I've contacted hospital and Dr and I said yes, was about giving him the letter and he said NO, never mind. Asked if it was my first childbirth, and I said yes. Asked what I do in Nig and hubby and I answered, so he said u want to give ur baby the best healthcare unlike what's in Nigeria yea? He was looking at me and smiling and I said yes.. Just said submit ur card on ur way out and have a wonderful stay, just looked at my passport and saw the stamp til March 2016.. I give all thanks and glory to God, I had all my docs imma handbag but nothing was checked, no secondary inspection or seizure, money was not recounted also.. Resting 13 Likes |

Congratulations onyi15. Thk God for a successful POE. As regard your baby while not call the doctor office and know their stance on you carrying ur baby along for appointment. For me I went with my kids but hubby was arround with them. They have gone back. Subsequently I went alone. It's a little differ from your case. Just call ur Dr office my own opinion sha. Oyin15: |
