you actually went to Ijebuode? You would have just applied in Fcmb lagos here, I hear wherever you apply they send to treasury here in the Lagos head office for approval ,at least thank God you eventually got!

telias:
A little clarification to all about Stanbic IBTC PTA. They have a BDC subsidiary so it's not like it's the Bank issuing like other Banks. In effect, they don't always get funds from CBN hence the reason why they have been issuing more than other Banks. This also accounts for reasons why rates differ, 197 today, 257 tomorrow.

NaijaMama:


Please what bank did you use for your form A?

Nnystc:
Sterling for one...

I say thank you to Nef, Nnystc and all others that have encouraged Blaize777. I ve been offline all day so by the time I got here, everything had been said.

@ Everyone who contributed in my days of indecision, I say thank you. The Jury is in and its El Paso. Bestie and Hubby tear me warning on saturday to better pick hospital that will accept Form A and lets move on. According to hubby, we cannot be using torchlight to find cheap dollars. Na so i begin email doctoresparati for invoice. They are so responsive!

Long story short, Form A was approved and account was debited today @ 199.5. We paid for both hospital and obgyn and even though there is an additional charge if 250 dollars for prepaying hospital bills.

@Biollar Onidollar Atawewe of God,

I used your hospital reference letter today. The doctor couldnt stop laughing at your stunts. God bless you.

Hello Good People,

Kindly advise and assist with the following:-

(1) two years ago, wifey n I had our first child in Wisconsin got visa and entry was smooth no issue. 2 years down d line, we applied via dropbox and visa granted . After this, the following doubts arose hence why I need you guys help:-

(1) During the first interview we told them we were going to deliver hence no issue but in filling the DS160 form, we picked b1/b2 and since there is no where to indicate that we are going to have our child, thinking is it s must to write a letter of intent to the embassy to inform them about this? Or there is no need? Going to Houston for the first Time and I heard the POE can be funny sometimes especially if your intent isn't clear, pls advise

(2) Has anybody been in this situation before, if yes, what do u advise?
[3] Can anybody assist with sample copy of similar email sent to the embassy in respect of this?
(4) Also, we are using Oakbend hospital for Richmond, can anybody give referrals of concierge services or flats or apartment we can rent or use? What has been your experience with Doctor Ziworitin and his team?

(5) Is it also a must to write or inform the embassy if your destination is changing? In our form we cchoose Wisconsin but host has relocated hence the change to Texas, is this a challenge as well?

Please I will appreciate Ffirst hand information regarding my questions.

Thanks and God bless.

As at yesterday the Bank did not have FX for PTA. A staff travelling today went to meet the head of every unit 'meetable' and did not get PTA. And yes, Treasury has to approve, they approve based on availability.

Hello wonderful Nlanders
I am seeking out anyone who has given birth in colombus Ohio.I have searched the thread for mount camel hospital and only one mention was made by beepearl03 in pt2. help with info about surprise bills, Dr etc.Nagode in advance. Also what's the best way to get to Ohio without passing through Houston and Chicagooooooo!

Information about birthing in Ohio here is basically next to zero.
I gave birth at Riverside Hospital in Columbus Ohio in 2012.after a 40% discount.hospital bill for mother and baby amount to almost $12000.Obgyn:$3500 including all tests.Epidural $1800 but 35% discount was given.
Note: this was a normal delivery no complications,no NICU,2 day stay.
In Ohio,most hospitals are under 1 umbrella called Ohiohealth.so do your research very well before you make a final decision.
