Thank you mamaiyanu.

I applied for an expedited interview. It was denied. Reason being pregnancy isnt a true emergency.
Except a miraculous earlier date pops up before this month ends......hmmmm.
I have been tracking both lagos and abuja. People are seriously travelling ooooo. No cancellation at all.
Please if anyone comes across an earlier date, kindly notify us. Even if na for middle of the night. Thank u

@mamaiyanu thank you ma. I'm sorry about yours too.
I already have an appointment letter from dr f stating my edd. Would i have to request another?

@Omobendel that was the plan. He was to stay with me the entire 8 weeks. I told the vO that. Apparently, she didnt like the idea.

Today i was denied. A very sad and disappointing experience.
Hubby and i were very confident we would get visas. Unfortunstely the blonde lady had other plans for us.

I answered most of the questions because hubby was holding our 2 year old son who was fast asleep. All our documents were with me. Neatly filed.

This happened in Lagos, today in the morning. We came into town from PH lastnight and were right on time for the interview.
