Good evening dear naira landers. Please I need your honest advice pls help a sister out
I applied for a US visa in early March for an office training( supposed to happen in May) and I was given( I work for a US owned-multinational
First week of May I had to go for a more important training in Europe so I couldn't make the US training
Third week of May I discover am 7 weeks Preggy ( due in late December)
During visa application I was not pregnant...( just to clarify)
This is my third and last baby and I want to give birth in the US. Because my visa was obtained based on official purpose and not vacation even though it's B1/B2 what should be my best course of action.
Will letter of intent work in this case because it wasn't my fault that my manager decided I shouldn't go to the US again even after obtaining my visa.
Please note that I have never been to the US before..and the story above is 100 percent true
Is it better I take my chances at Houston poe in december( I have family there) or I need to use the visa for vacation at least once before I go and give birth.
Your candid advice will be appreciated...God bless you



I suggest you go ahead and make preparations to birth, contact a Dr, hospital, sort out accommodation etc. I think a letter from your office to state why you couldnt make the US training should suffice at the POE, you may like to avoid Houston POE though. Use a less difficult POE and YES, you should write a letter to inform the embassy(IMO). If you can, go for a vacation before December but it will still amount to you not using the visa for the reason it was given.

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 4 by Xenadarl: 2:13pm On Jun 02, 2016
I think Lady G is right. In addition I think the fact that ur hubby is a UK citizen and u were refused a UK visa raised a red flag with the VO. If I were in your shoes I would find out the reason for the UK refusal rectify it and birth there.Your child would have instant citizenship since his father is a citizen.That is irrespective of where the child is born.
You could also try the US after rectifying the UK denial. But then you will be spending a lot of money for the same quality of care you re entitled to for free in the UK. Personally, I don't see the need but then that's just my opinion.
LadyGuinivere:

Well, obviously u can't apply from the UK.

I can't believe I'm the one giving this advice sha.Sometyms Abuja allows applicants to enter with their spouse. Can your husband come back? My reason being that the last refusal was prolly on the issue of ties. Maybe the VO didn't jus see your ties to Naija from the scenario u painted.
But if he can't, its just to go with their data page, visa and every supporting docx u can think of or imagine. And be very clear that u are there for childbirth. Don't go saying 'vacation and childbirth' God's grace.

@Neks na wa o! U just go hide! Shuooo! How una dey? Kisses to umu oma gi

So have been following this thread closely since January, now it's my turn to start giving back!
Thanks to @Happytbaby for answering my 'overflogged' question(before I started reading back),to everyone else on this thread God bless you,I almost misrepresented based on people's advice,glad I took time to visit and read this thread.
I had my visa interview today in Lagos and was approved....My transcript:
VO: pass me your passport please(which I did)
VO: so why are going to the US
ME: vacation and to have my baby
VO: is this your first
ME: yes it is
VO: where in US are you heading
ME: Houston Texas
VO: why Texas
ME: coz I got good hospital/price based on reviews I have heard and read and I got a couple of friends schooling in Tx too
VO: oh good (smiling ) are you staying with anyone or lodging
ME: Lodging
VO: what do you do for work
ME: I work at......as......i also own a...... and...... business
VO: what does your husband do for work
ME: He own .....company that is into ..... and .....
VO: any documents from the hospital and account work?
ME: yes (hands over correspondence,budget sheet and account statements) while she is going through the statement am explaining: that account has the money for the trip which we have saved in there,that is mine,showing my monthly income,those are husband's,as he's the sponsor
VO: looks up as says good,when is the baby due?
ME: ....October according to scan
VO: are you going alone?
ME: yes,hopefully hubby will join me before the baby comes
VO: (hands me back my docs and gives me the white paper) make sure u pay ur bills and travels with all the documents you have here....
ME: thank you very much
NOTE am 5months and my tummy is invisible, today I had to wear something tight coz I wanted to show by force,so having a small tummy is no excuse to lie about your pregnancy.

Now unto ticket,PTA and other matters grin


@Quinn how did you doyour budget sheet, I have sent you a request to email you.

many thanks

MadameU:
EvaMD I'm curious as to why you want to birth in the US? If your reasons are just the healthcare you would receive then no problems, but if you have your eyes on the blue passport, I suggest you just let it go, your child by birth would be a British citizen regardless of place of birth, (cos of paternity).
And with the trend these days at the US embassy, you may be asked why not birth in the UK where you have family ties n all.
And don't be carried away by the trends I would take the red passport over the blue anyway......
Just my thoughts all the best in your quest dearie. Be safe.

@ MadameU i sent u PM. Can u pls respond. I need your help urgently.

If your total budget is 800k, then you've not done your homework well. Apart from the main hospital bill, there are other bills like Anaesthesia, NICS, etc.
1. Applying in 2weeks interval might be too close but if you don't have time on your side considering your EDD, you can change your interview to Lagos or Abuja depending on where you had the previous
2. I don't think your accommodation will be a problem since you even have letter from your relative
3. Bank statement; if you have good explanation, I don't think it can stop you from getting the visa especially wen the monthly income is reasonable.
4.Applying with your hubby may or might not help you, because they also look at your ties back home. So it now depends on wat your hubby do, and guarantee that you are both coming back.

Gurus in the house will also shed more light and answer your questions, I've just tried to answer you from the little I have read here too. Cheers!




Sorry about this. The mistake was with the amount you mentioned. During mine, my husband was about to say 5k dollars i no let am finish when i answered 10k- 15k dollars was our budget. Even though you might get a deal of 6k, 7k for the purpose of the interview you have to prove you are ready should in case of any unforeseen situation. Going after 2weeks, will show you are desperate and you might not get the visa because you will need prove you have raised the said 10k-12k dollars. I applied with my husby and daughter then and we were all given. good luck.
