you usually pay $500 for doctor Glenn as deposit before they send you their acceptance letter. they will later deduct it from your final balance as it is part of the doctor's fee you are supposed to pay. I am wondering why theirs no much talk about northwest houston medical center. The quotation from them is very fair from my calculation. Congrats firstymum and everyother person with great POE stories. Peaceful2016: |

what's their prediac bills like? i am looking for my Chase documents to send to you. might be of help. their savings account makes all the sense. you don't also have to deal with the 1500 with their checking account every month unlike BOA. firsttymum: |

Do you know how much banks charge to send money to foreign accounts? Do they use cbn rates or the ridiculous 220bucks per dollar rates to do this? olokings: |

Hello mamas (and papas). Newbie here (although ive gone through both threads already so I almost feel like a veteran). Im due with my second in dec and the 2 birth centers I planned to use are now fully booked and have even jacked up their prices (I suspect you guys, cause they said they had an influx from nigeria). Im a water birth mama so birth center is compulsory. Thinking of porting to Arizona (they have a couple of midwife groups that my former midwives highly recommend). Hubby is however afraid and thinks we should settle for home birth instead of going to a strange land. Please those that used MIHS, what was arizona like in terms of safety, ease of transport, shopping, things to do etc. Also are there any areas to avoid. Heard that mesa was a bit ghetto. Thanks for your help and sorry for the long post. |

Just to be on the safe side you can also email the embassy telling them that you were issued a b1/b2 visa and you have used it for vacation but now want to use it for birthing, I'm sure you will get the generic reply. Just like was mentioned above,return ticket is a must if you carry a 9ja kpali 1 Like |

Boss, I stand corrected but I think that ban may not be applicable to everything ooh... I have swiped my Stanbic card for transactions worth over $500.00 at a tyme. I swiped it for car rental, and was still able to make purchases at the local groceries place all in a day... @firsty is #high lets poke at her tinker with her BOP n make her blow a cap... shawlar: |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 2 by olokings(m): 10:43am On Sep 26, 2015 |
Nope!... I don't have a clue. I'm just saying since we most usually take PTA for our trips (given d thought that PTA taken is not for miscellaneous) lil purchases can be done with naija cards while large amount denting can be directed to cash or otherwise... It's all about perspective though.. bigfido: 1 Like |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 2 by FinanceFitness: 11:37am On Sep 26, 2015 |
Don't understand, but will attempt to answer using different scenarios. If the transaction is eligible (e.g school fees, medicals e.t.c) for which you are able to provide your bank with appropriate documentation - they will credit the service provider directly, the rate used for that is the CBN official rate which is usually lower than PTA and MasterCard rates. If the transaction is ineligible or no documentation, you cannot buy dollars at all officially and cannot do a transfer even if you source the dollars from parallel market. The recent CBN circular prohibits making wire transfer from cash deposits to domicilliary accounts. If you receive inflows or export proceeds, you cannot just transfer, CBN regulates what such inflow can be applied to. bigfido: |
