Most banks will say NO because May is in Q2...However nothing stops you from applying now and keep your fingers crossed.

firsttymum:
Those that used form A I'm sure u read people asking severally about it.

It's selfish not to at least throw some light on it.

I didn't use form A.
How I know it works is
Find away to register in d Hospital of choice
Add all ur bills together and pay.
Who ever registered you, can mail u an acknowledgment receipt. (If u are an old timer.. Meaning u already have an account there. U just go ahead and pay)
Now remember the hospital is over paid. So get d Hospital to pay Dr, epi.
Your Dr can help you follow up... ( Depends on ur rapport).
Else u just call them....


PLEASE THOSE THAT USED IT, THROW MORE LIGHT OR CORRECT ME.

I used Form A to pay for part of my fees in El Paso. Used Stanbic IBTC. Process was very fast. Deduction from my naira funded account was made the same day I requested. Hospital confirmed payment the next day. Rate used was 199.5. The only caveat at Stanbic is to make the request, fill the form, provide documentation and all before 3pm. Anything after 3pm means the transaction will be delayed till the next day.

emeldamicheals:
I did not apply and I am leaving nxt wk. Will it still work so I don't fly to lagos in vain.
Thanks

Yea You can get, you will just have to beg them. It would have been easier if you were in Lag. So you could try the standard chartered someone mentioned. If it doesn't work, pm me.

Thanks dear, please when did you do this transaction? And does that mean you don't need a Stanbic account?

So the $100k allocation was not approved by the Gov....sorry to be the bearer of bad news...implication is that the scarcity might be tough next week...till next Friday (except a special intervention is approved b4 then)...however the likes of Stanbic that sells from other sources apart from CBN will still sell so be aware.

Sorry Mamas!

[quote author=emeldamicheals post=42853532]Is it standard chattered in Abuja or Lagos. Also, I am leaving next week thursday. Are u saying I can get it on tuesday if I open today.
Thanks

Scb abuja. I'm saying it's worth a try. I'm also traveling with my mom nxt week Tuesday and we just submitted her acc opening form today. They said acc number will be out on Monday. If it works we will collect on Monday and bail.

Just try.

This was done the last week of January. That's about two weeks ago.

Did the transaction two weeks ago and I have a Stanbic account so I do not know the status for those who do not have Stanbic account.

Okay thanks a lot. Much appreciated.

@ Firstymum,

Your post might have been overtaken by events as there was a post a page or two ago saying that CBN is to ban the use of FormA for medicals and school fees.

However, there is no long procedure, you just fill a form and add your supporting documentation e.g invoice showing bank details of the service provider. The bank either bids on your behalf or sell from internal funds and wire to the beneficiary.

You typically need to be an account holder to do Form A transactions.

He can't do the interview without the receipt. How did he make payments?

Hi, any advice where to give birth in philadelphia area with affordable price? Tried to read from part 1 but it's way too much. Already tried to contact penn hospital and given 12.500 $ approximate cost to be paid in advance. Birth center for 6000. Looking for hospital option in case of emergency. Thank you in advance.

Don't think it's a serious issue, we didn't go with our GTbank receipt when we got the visa 2 years ago and we didnt have issues. We just explained to the lady at the window that we left it in the car.

Anyways, he can still try and search for it. I shouldn't give you false hope because it could have just been favour.

I'm not sure he can make it past the embassy gates without the visa payment receipt.

I think he should go back to the GT bank where he made the payment and ask for another reciept. They'll likely issue him another if he can remember the date of payment.

Check Delaware county memorial hospital DCMH Philadelphia
Dr fee $1,500
Hospital $6,000 ( VD 2 days or CS 3days for both mom and baby)
Anesthesia $1000
And pls don't go the birth center route o! Cos in case of emergency you'll be transferred to a hospital and end up paying both the hospital and birth center.

He should go to the branch where he paid and ask for a copy.

Someone I know was told to go and get it. Luckily, he paid online so it was easy for him to print another receipt
