Hello all,I applied for renewal of my visa by dropbox but was called for interview n denied.The consular asked how i got such discount n i explained to him that its because am self pay,he checked henrico drs hosp website n insisted i used county assistant which i didn't.I went with all my bills,receipts n zero balance.How else do I prove that I didn't use any government or county assistant and should I reapply asap or chill till am ready to travel in may?

My dd is June i'll be travelling by may 2017 DH is not going with me as he will be in UK then, a close friend is offering me a helping hand by accommodating me, getting a child birth center for me which she says will be cheaper as she is going to use her account to get more discount for me base on sister level, my issue now is, she said they will accept me to have my baby there fine but they cannot not send me doctor's approval letter until am there
1. If am bn call for f 2 f interview at the embassy what will I say? (I.e after sending letter of intent since my initial visa was based on visitation )
2. What will I tell or present at poe if I v bn asked if I v contacted a doctor (she is the one making every arrangement for me)
3. Can I use her as my sponsor since everything is going to be through her act? Can I also get her account details to show I can afford all my bills? How much cash can I have on me (Tho DH is going to send money tru her account)
4. Will they ask me why my sponsor is not DH? (We both have same visa also my son and now I will be going alone) if they ask me watin I go tok?
5. At 37 weeks will Nigeria immigration allow me to fly

PLEASE OOOOO AM CLUELESS HELP ME!! Thanks.

Abeg what airline is she using? Cost? For when?
Finally what hospital is she using? Accommodation?

Too many questions, I know. Sorry just hoping that this one folks are running to Tx that I'm not missing something.

Ayokunle07:
Hospital is Emory Midtown. Doc is Tates. We have not booked an air ticket yet (hoping to have the airlines drop fares with sales). Due in Aug, travelling in July.

We would have done TX too but Atlanta is where we have accommodation.

Are you also planning to go to Atlanta? What info do you have already?

I ll advise you do your thing by yourself since your husband is paying, let your friend help you with only accommodation, don't let her cajole you into using her account for anything, it might put you in trouble at the long run. I am having issues renewing my visa now cos of something similar, my husband's aunt works in a hospital and she gave us a quote of 7500 for VD, we gave her the money. She said it includes everything, but alas we kept getting bills for lab which was up to an additional 1500, finally she gave us a receipt of 5500 citing that she had to buy gifts for some pple at the hospital to get the discount. Now my zero bal statement shows I paid 5500 and got a discount of about 8000. The VOs at abuja think it's impossible for to get that kind of a discount no matter who she is at the hospital. The hospital has written and all but my visa was still denied. You can imagine how I feel after spending close to 10k. So please get a doctor and hospital yourself to avoid stories that touch.

Good development. Dollar will crash soon. Bank rate is 316. And gbp is 396.

Amen!

Good morning beautiful mums, honestly I've been reading a lot of the posts here and they are quite enlightening. Great job . please I have some questions directed to the general house. Anyone with similar experience should let me know.
1) will it be possible to get my visa approved as my passport bears my maiden name, marital status single and my son(1yr 7months) has a passport that bears his fathers surname. I'm a 5th year medical student and intend to take my son for medical treatment
We have done our traditional wedding and the white will b coming up in December invitation cards are already out. I had my son when I was in my 4th year in sch.
2) what documents do I need to go withand which ones can i use to show strong ties here in nigeria.
3) what are the likely questions I could be asked.
4) which hospital can I contact to get correspondence
5) how do I make a budget does it have to be typed by me? A picture of one will go a long way to help. Thanks love.

. This is exactly my issue, they said it's impossible to get such discount, I reapplied 3 more times and it's same thing, Infact at my last interview, the lady said ok, but that my new hospital is too cheap (Dr. Mbagwu and St. Francis), that it is impossible to get that quote from a hospital in California. I ve given up.

Babatwi:


I don't think your husbands aunt was being totally honest with you guys,you get discounts in American hospitals because you are paying cash,na which one be buying gifts for some people again? That one na naija style na. Na which kind gifts she buy with a whole $2,000 na motor abi na 6o inch Lcd Tv? I'm so,so upset with this your aunt inlaw jist.

mayorsboo:
My sis I just tire, it's not like we didn't have the money o, why are we buying pple gifts when we can pay, if I had gone to El Paso I won't spend as much as 10k but I didn't want to be a rebel. Now look where it has landed me.

Still can't believe your question is for real. Anyway you've answered your question.

cfcchick:


Please if u find any cheap ticket please sir/ma carry me along. Due in August, wanna travel in July! Using Emory/Dr tate

dtush:


Hi, i dont know too much but i will answer you to the best of my knowledge
1. I applied for my visa with a passport that bears my maiden name, which i have not changed till date, and i have traveled twice with the passport. Once while i was pregnant and second time with my family.
2. Have u contacted a hospital that is willing to take on ur son's case? Its important to have a mail correspondence showing communication btw the hospital and yourself
3. Even though i went with my marriage cert for my visa application, i was not asked for it. But u can go with the IV for the white wedding, pictures and all
4. You shld prepare a budget sheet showing your expenses, the naira and dollar equivalent. Your statement of account shld also show that u can afford it. On the safe side, have a million or so above expenditure amount in ur account. For the budget sheet, just use ur excel. Column one; Expenditure type eg hospital bill, accommodation cost, feeding, airfare etc. column 2 Naira at N510, the amounts in front of the expenditure type, column 3 the dollar equivalent. I dont have one anymore but u can search the thread esp part 1 n 2
5. For the likely questions, u might get asked y u are taking him out of the country for treatment and not using any hospital here, so u will need to get a referal letter preferably from a general hospital

U can pm,lets not clog up the thread has this thread is for a different purpose. Wishing your son God's divine healing

I heard on radio that Airfrance will be having sales between 1 to 3 March that interested persons should walk into the office in port Harcourt for it.
I don't know if it is applicable to other states too.
