Thank you so much! Do you know the name of the form he is to fill at the Canadian Consulate in Lagos? Or should he just walk in and ask? JESUnifemi4eva: |

Thank you so much! The birth certificate has both our names. Do you have any idea how long processing the form in Lagos will take, please? rolorolo: |

[quote author=Hotstepper post=31991132] It doesn't matter. My family friend was already preggy when she applied but she did online application and there was nowhere they asked if she's preggy or not so she didn't indicate. She wasn't called for interview either and was given 4 yrs visa. Now to the info everyone is itching to hear ![]() So for her, 1. Dr fee was 750 2. Hospital was 2500 per day and she stayed just a day nd it's CS Ooo 3. Anesthesia..640 Total is 3890 CAD The baby paid nothing because immediately he was born, he's Canadian so his health card which was given immediately at the hospital made it free. All the specialist that came to check him like eye, hearing etc was free. So this is the part that in US that adds up cuz baby have to pay. @ Hotstepper please what's the name of the hospital could help a sister. |

Hi Ncify, don't worry you will be given the details at the passport office and probably with a reference number.to forward to your husband. (I think its to get the fathers consent as well as information about your baby's location in Nigeria etc) I paid for express passport service and got it in about 5days or so (can't really remember). Cheers! |

This is not true as long as you have sufficient funds to cover your tourist expenses. People opt for the invite because you wont need to declare much funds to back up your visiting purposes. awash: |
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by Fiwajoluwa(f): 4:10pm On Mar 23, 2017 |
This is true. A lot of nigerians living abroad dont know jack about nigerians who just want to travel for various purposes. Most of them live in fear and wont let you do things the right way. Best way to get info is to as fellow nigerians who live here and have gone for whatever reason you are now going. Imagine an a nigerian living in america aguing with me that i cant drive with my intl drivers license and wont even believe its legal to drive inter state. i dey tire for our nigerians living abroad. Most nigerian visitors are more informed than them. God help us Nita2013: 2 Likes |

Fiwajoluwa: True that! However just don't know if they deliberately feign ignorance some times or they are that much lacking information-wise.... The strength and unassuming exactitude with which they stand their grounds on empty soil awes me really. |

OmoBendel24:Think it's the same reason that makes some people think Africans live on trees. Besides, they don't need that information but many of us here need the information, thus we need to dig deeper. |

Hi All, Hot stepper especially I have read through a good part of this thread. Thanks a million to those who have shared their experiences and stories of people that they know. I am about 3 months gone. Fresh passport but want to go have my baby in CA with my two kids and mum. Please 1) how do i go about applying for all of us and can anyone provide an estimate of how much funds I need to have in order to secure our visas. 2) I also do not have any close relation to stay with so I most likely would have to rent an apartment for at least two months (one/two bed, depending on the cost) - Please advise on best location in terms of affordability, quality care and ease of mobility so I can make up my mind Your prompt response will be greatly appreciated. |

I just feel American visa is easier to get for birth purposes compared to Canada. |

Congrats! I dont have any experience with Visa so you have to try your luck. however, doing paper application instead of online will be faster and better for you. Toronto or anywhere in the GTA will be better for you. 1 bedrom apartment can go for 1k dollars . Good luck nairalinda: 1 Like |

Nairalanders pls come and share your recent canadian birth experiences. I am contemplating on Canada or USA and i have been to both countries. There isnt much difference with the baby birth for both countries as i heard except for the expenses. Pls kindly share your recent experiences as i need to start looking for flights and doctors to take me. How much you ended up spending in total and stuff like that. Una Biko o! i will be waiting for your nice replies. God will bless you all oh as i dont wanna go the american way if canada is almost the same and cheaper. I would be happy to save some of our hard earned naira on the mission. |

Re: Giving Birth In Canada by BlessedMD2: 4:59am On May 03, 2017 |
Hello people, greetings So for the little information I have for now, here it goes.... I arrived Calgary safe and without any hassle, when I say no hassle, my time spent at Poe was about 2 minutes tops. Got in, settled down and my search began for an ob/gyn It wasn't easy as everyone I called asked if I had insurance because they can't accept cash payments. I finally got a referral to a Dr at Foothils hospital Calgary Alberta. I visited the first time and for the first visit I paid $180 cad, and subsequent visits will be 60cad. Then he examined me and said all is well and from the tests results I brought(thanks to informants here, God bless you all) that I won't be needing any more tests. Im due in June 2017 by their calculations/report, but by God's grace I'm praying for my specific due date ![]() Now to the part that amazed me ![]() Dr fee 5000cad(this excludes all your prenatal check ups oh! Hmmm. Well I have just a few checks IF I will use him) Hospital 4765cad Baby 1968 Epidural 1500 cad Hospital admittance fee 865 ![]() I was speechless cos everything he told me is completely different from what I have been reading here though it's not specifically on Calgary doctors, but I did a rough estimate from findings here. I got home, called rocky view hospital and they said their hospital fee is 3488 and baby is 1968cad, that they have no idea about doctors fee, that I would have to get a dr to know that and the epidural fee too. So here I am thinking if I should "jejely go to the aarmrika" or keep searching or go to another state cos I'm tired cos we budgeted 6k for everything. Advice my people. Thanks and God bless you all 3 Likes |
