Hello guys! Please any idea what time Port health guys close? This is because my flight is a late night flight and I hear the airline may still insist on port health medical cert. Thanks! |

If the soft copy of your passport doesn't meet the passport requirements it wont upload. I had them email me a soft copy rather than using a scanned copy and it worked. maybe you should try that OnJosh1: |

Ayokunle07: Ayo pls something has been bothering me about payment of bills, pls help clarify, is there a difference between discount and financial assistance? Some hospitals will say they are giving "financial assistance " to self pay individuals. I'm really scared it may be a baptized form of Medicaid. Pls help 3 Likes |

Ok... time to share my Poe experience... 3rd missionary journey. Left Nigeria on the 15th sept with two toddlers and hubby with emirates. Emirates asked for fit to fly from dr and the one on their website. The flight was good just that my younger son disturbed my hubby all thru. Anyway arrived Houston Poe there was no queue met a black cbp.. Cpb:what are you here for Hubby: Vacation for me child birth for her Cbp:how long are you staying Hubby: 2 weeks and 12 weeks for them Cbp: Did you inform the consulate of your intention Me: Yes during my 2nd visa interview last year Cbp: why did you have a second interview didn't you do drop box Me: yes I did but was called for interview Cbp: Why Me: Cos I have my first child here but didn't say I was coming for child birth Cpb: so u used ur visiting visa for childbirth Me: yes Cpb:ok... so you sorted it out at ur second interview Me: Yes Cpb: So your visa of f last year is what you are using for this birth? Thts one visa 2 kids? Me: yea Cpb: Any dr appointment yet? Me Yes and gave him all my drs correspondence from dr f Cpb: Have you made any payment Me: No I usually don't make payment until I arrived ve Cpb: Stamps us in and asked if we have food Sent us to agric Interview number 2 Got to agric one over Sabi officer collected my passport and started round two: went to his computer and started asking plenty questions: checked his computer oooo Cbp: This is your 3rd birth in the Us Me: yes Cbp: did you pay ur bills Me: yes He kept checking computer ooo Cbp: did you open any account her in 2014 Me: yes with Boa He continued checking for his ancestors on the computer Cbp: Do you have any outstanding bill? Me: yes I do from my 2nd child's birth The hospital sent me a bill of 13650 for treating jaundice for 3 days. I asked for a price breakdown and they gave me a discount of 6500: when I insisted on a price breakdown they further gave me another bill of 4400 so I started a payment plan of 200$ monthly Cpb: do you have a copy of all these bills? Gave him the 3 bills of 13500,6500 and 4400 Cpb: so it you and the hospital one year to negotiate this bill Me: yes I just started the payment plan 3 months ago . He kept looking at his computer oooo Cbp: ok make sure you pay all your bills and keep your receipts. Scanned our bags and checked all the egusi, Maggie etc then said ook you seem experienced after 2 kids so you didn't bring any contraband. I just faked a smile cos this guy no understand say I don tire from emirates journey and all their investigations. I have been speaking in tongues since I got down from the plane and I just went to heaven to ask God for favor especially when he started asking about my unpaid bill... so I was tired physically and mentally. They sha let us pass o. Hubby was in shock till we got to the house we. Me sef I shock o but thank God. Av gone for my appointment with Dr F and waitin for baby to come. Thts my testimony. Pls I don't know how to do PM If you notice I took me over 3 weeks to type this epistle cos I am pregnant with two toddlers to run after all alone... so pls no plenty questions. Thanks and may God grant us all favor and safe delivery. Amen 17 Likes 1 Share |

Please, buy your ticket directly from the airlines or trusted ticket agent not "come and travel agents o". Don't fall for tickets are cheaper in the US. You may be caught in between a credit scam. I have seen two cases in one month. 3 Likes |

kekeakinwale: While we wait for the gurus , (1) shouldn't be a problem. I think carrying your marriage cert./change of name should clear this. (2) use the search bar up there . Narrow it down to the travel section. Just hang in there, I'm sure the experienced moms will answer as soon as they come online. 2 Likes |

Lanifat84: Hi. can't access my nairaland email so anyone with questions just has to ask it here. You don't need an appointment to go to the hospital you need to understand that the hospital and the doctor's clinic are separate entities. you can go to the hospital as soon as possible and speak with a financial counsellor. They will give you a list of doctors who have admission priviledges there. A good number of the ob/gyn's have their clinics within the baylor complex so you can just visit them while there and find out their costs as well as if they will take you on depending on how far gone you are. you can then finalise with any one you choose and go back to the hospital to register. All the best! |
