Thanks dear. Still wondering why naija scan kept saying baby girl.
For BOA account, ask them for SAFE BALANCE ACCOUNT. I ve had mine for years now and never had issues with minimum balance or monthly charge.

the penis might have been hiding. Or it was too huge to believe it's a penis.... Hahhahahahhaaha don't mind me..mayb it was hiding or mayb u checked too early. Same thing happened to my SIL

Ok thanks alot...

jayjay4lyf:

My thot, you have your visa already, you have correspondences and receipts of part payment, that should suffice for POE, somebody just mentioned some 'affordable' hospitals in NJ like 2 posts before this, (St marys and St Barnabas I think)
Return ticket is a must if u don't have residency permit
Gurus I try?

@jayjay4lyf thanks you are the best, i guess i will buy a 2 minths ticket to be on the safer side

Take your mind off it to avoid being sad all through your stay. I paid 225 per dollar with my GTB card throughout my stay in the US and it wasn't funny. I simply chanelled my energy to the reason why I was there and forgot everything about exchange rate in order to maintain my sanity.

Before I left, I called Gtb customer care and told them I will never keep a kobo of mine in my accounts with them because of how we were ripped off by them whilst customers of other banks got better exchange rate. I made sure I carried out my threat upon arrival. Yeye bank. Never ever benefitted anything from them yet they kept taking from me by every means possible.

My people, please is Alabama a good place to give birth.
Also, assist with any good hospital in Alabama and cost of delivery.

Are you not planning to come back? It's compulsory you should have a return ticket.

Maybe it's your threat that made them to reduce their rate, they are among the cheapest now @ #220. Sometimes I think it's even better to buy from black market and carry all our money, den pay up hospital and doctor asap, and still have less cash at hand. I rmber hubby buying dollar at #209 just about one week before I travelled, and when I wanted to buy, the rate was already abt #224. Who knows how much black market dey sell now?

U shouldn't compare stanbic to those other banks jare - they r on another level...
One thing you can't be corrected on right now though is your assertion on firsttymums state of mind, considering the below - lol

@Nasadiva - congrats on the birth of ur lil one. Its good it turned out to be just one, not two or joint . May the blessings of God rest on him and you also.

Agreed, no limit on pos and online purchases. Just cash withdrawals.

I've used up to $2k online and $900 at POS. Worked both times.

The only snag is the $50k per annum thingy - you shouldn't use more than this on all your cards. It can now be consolidated with BVN.

Lol. I'm sure they got similar calls and threats from other Nigerians too.

In addition to PTA, I also plan to Process form A through UBA to pay my hospital fees since New Jersey gives bill break down for hospital fees at least besides doctors fees, no obgyn will give you a bill breakdown ahead of their services "gathered from my inquiries so far with New Jersey Hospitals"
Form A charge for Medicals and school fees are based on the Cbn rate real time. This will cushion the effect of the fx inflation/naira depletion. God will help us my people!

@berryl we only sent a letter from hubby and myself and data page of our passport plus baby passport and money. We didn't go to the embassy direct, but used an agent that was given to us by a natural and mom I met here. We got the etc by post.

Hope this helps someone.

Yes u will have to pay a non refundable fee of $100 but will be deducted from your total bill if u use him

Used my ATM card to pay for most of my bills over the phone including oakbend

Are they telling you it's impossible?

Black market was 210two weeks ago not sure of now tho

Hello dear

I used form A last year for both hospital and doctor fees (el paso) - so you should be able to. These are the CBN requirements for processing medical payments:


(i) Completed Form A
(ii) A letter of reference from a specialist doctor, or a specialist hospital, in Nigeria.
(iii) Travel documents including valid passport, visa and air ticket.
(iv) Letter issued by the overseas specialist doctor stating the cost of treatment,
maintenance, etc.

It is generic for all banks. So just go to your account officer with both invoices and you should be fine.

PS: I think I know you... We met briefly before I came back home.
