Excuse me ,point of correction mind ur use of words. I hv ever advised u before to say I give wrong advice. If u like tour d whole world in a minute is non of my fucking biz. I advised based on what I hv done and seen some other person do. U can always air ur view and not castigate anyone.am entitled to my own opinion as far as this forum is concern. This is nt ur house where u control people as u like. Nonsense.

People need to stop giving others bad advice on here.

You don't need to lie about losing a passport to get another visa. I'm a frequent traveler and I've run through 2 passports in less than a year before and I'm currently on my 6th passport. With all that, I got denied a Schenghen visa via the Spanish embassy this year. Guess what... I still got another Schenghen visa after that for Norway.

Being denied a visa does not mean a passport is now useless. There are people here that have applied for the US visa 3-4 times before they were successful. Who knows what would happen if that deception is found out.

I know people generally give good advice here but we should also discourage it when people give bad advice

Thanks firstty, how's our Prince charming... Will PM you soon ma'am.

Pls all, this Arifrance deal, don't know how it works O. I intend travelling mid January, Houston Bound, due in February to return in March. So I know I can still get the promo. But the issue is the agent..Travel start. #294 or thereabout for a return ticket.

My questions now...
>Is Having JFK as my POE safe?
> What if I need to change my travel date, but still withing the promo period, will I still qualify??
> How best can I get an affordable connecting flight to Houston?
> Adding Infant ticket later, nko? Hope travel start will be able to do that with no stress of going to the airline's office.??

So sorry for my long questions O, as na still JJC/FTM things grin

First of all, big congrats on your visa.

Have you tried booking directly on AirFrance website or going to their office? I very much prefer to deal with airlines directly cos of changes that one might want to make later to the booking. It is usually easier when you are dealing with the airline directly.

JFK has been known to be ok. Heard they are becoming stricter with preggers these days though, but i doubt you will have any ish as long as you declared at the interview and you are prepared.

You should be able to make changes on the promo ticket. It might cost a lil more though.

I heard Southwest airline is the best as they are the only domestic airline that allow 2 checked in luggage for free. Mkae sure you book well ahead of your trip.

Travelstat might be able to do it. Just might not be as straightforward as it could be with the airline it self.

Bon voyage. smiley

. I WENT TO EMBASSY IN ABUJA FOR INTERVIEW I WAS ABOUT 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AND VERY HEAVY I TOLD THEM I WAS GOING TO GIVE BIRTH AND I WAS TOLD THE RULES AND ASKED IF I KNEW HOW MUCH IT COST ,WHICH I TOLD THEM AND SAID I HAD MONEY AS SHOWN ON MY STATEMENT , I WAS ASKED WHAT I DO AND ALL THOSE USUAL QUESTIONS .


AT POINT OF POE -

I DIDNT BOOK FOR A HOSPITAL BEFORE GOING, BUT ON POINT OF ENTRY I WAS DELAYED AND ASKED WHY I DIDNT BOOK I TOLD THEM THE PERSON I WAS STAYING WITH JUST MOVED AND WE NNED TO FIND ANOTHER HOSPITAL IN THAT AREA .

I WAS EVENTUALLY LET GO AFTER PLENTY QUESTIONS AND 3 HOURS

WHAT DO U DO
ANS -DOCTOR
WHAT DOES YOUR HUSBAND DO
AND -DOCTOR
HOW MANY CHILDREN
ANS- 3
HOW MUCH DO U HAVE
ANS- 4K AND THE REST IN MY ACCOUNT AS SHOWN ON MY STATEMENT I WILL BE USING MY DEBIT CARD TO ACCESS THE MONEY .

Madam... No need to get angry.. What's wrong is wrong angry ...

That you and other people got a visa using deceptive means doesn't make it right

If what you advised the young man to do isn't wrong, i'm not sure how else to describe it.

It's plain as black and white..

It's folks that do stuff like this that makes foreigners look at Nigerians and generalize that we're all dishonest people and fraudsters...

There's no point arguing with you ...You know you're wrong that's why you're angry.. maybe when you get a lifetime visa ban from one of these countries, you'll learn.. grin

@Apple19 I always feel bad for students hustling, it wasn't a nice experience for me. I always tell people I sold my body to survive in school, and before y'all go shocked It's not what you think o!

My dad had stroke wen I was in year 1, then things took a downward spiral, I couldn't belive the hardship after growing up with a silverspoon. I now heard that if you join sports and go for training in stadium you get 1k a day, dats how I took up a sport o! 35k a month for a student was cool cash that year o! That's how I "sold" my body. Hehehehe! Then you should see us scrambling for competitions. Usually 150k for gold, 100k for silver and 75k for bronze for local competitions. Dre was still thanks for coming. NUGA games, WAUG, National sports festival, free food and 2k daily allowance. All African games, my dream was to make Olympics, not just to win but to chop allowances! Won't talk further so I won't reveal my identity! lipsrsealed

The year Olympics tryouts started I graduated and got bank job, and poof! went the dream.

Sorry for derailing the thread but your zobo and puff puff got me thinkingm

@Hisuula abi wetin b ur name....The only reason u stayed glued to this thread is quite obvious. U prolly think pple here can afford to birth dia babies in US and definitely they must be rich. O se mistake aburo. The kain hustle wey some of us go even hustle to pay dis hospital bill and fund dis trip ehn... If we talk am here e go blow ur mind I swear! If u see me on top my sewing machine dey sew my colleagues cloth for midnite even with dis belle on top say I'm gainfully employed, u go fear fear. If u kip up with this begging attitude, u're not likely to make it early. "Apa lara, igunpa niye kan" if u know wat i mean. I bet if they giv u this money, u def will come bak for more. U seem to be a pro at begging. Oya roll ur sleeve and get down to work... U'll b amazed at how much u'll make in a short time. Peace!

...And after several days of postponement, i'm finally here.

To God be d Glory, our PRINCESS arrived exactly two weeks today(13/11/2015) at Oakbend hospital thru Dr E. The whole experience was quite different frm wat is obtainable in Nigeria. My tear was so perfectly sutured dat i now feel like a virgin(still need som time 2 confirm dat though grin) secondly, i didnt use epidural, bt in less dan one week, i wasn't feeling any pain down there( compared to my previous experiences)

I've settled all my bills except Brown n associates, have also gotten baby passport wt Naija visa on it. I've ported 2 Chicago, awaiting d arrival of my LO's SSN for our final porting 2 Naija. Will come to share my cost breakdown once i'm done wt B&A.

Once again, thanks 2 ds wonderful family, it wouldn't hav bn easier/possible wtout u guys. wink

@Apple19
Try and book from Jan 21 to any date u want on ur return ticket.am sure you will get something cheaper even on travel start or wakanow.
U can add a week extra to ur intended return date so as to prevent extra charges for date change
