Hello house! I have shared visa and Poe experience so it's time to share my birthing experience. I stayed in Michigan till a week to my EDD before I left for Chicago I had my LO on Wednesday 19th of July in Chicago. A day after delivery my LO's birth certificate was ready but cldnt get it till after I was discharged (I fast tracked it).I was discharged on Friday evening..went to vital records to get the BC. Had an appointment with the paediatrician On Tuesday after I was discharged and LO was certified okay...I got a fit to fly for my LO from the paediatrician cos I was gonna travel to NY and domestic airlines need certification for infants less than 14days to fly. Went back to Michigan on weds. Called Qatar airways Customer Care to get my LO ticket and was charged $150.(note that I got my ticket from wakanow but booked LO directly) Hubby mailed notarized form thru FedEx (I was very disappointed in their service) after several calls to them I eventually got the package on Saturday after which I left for the airport to board plane to NY. On Monday I went to NY passport office very early as walk in and I met a very long queue...eventually after 5hrs I made it in and my passport was processed for $165 I waited to collect it...left there around 9pm. On Tuesday I sent a mail for visa on on arrival to the immigration and got a reply after 5 hrs.. On Wednesday, Got to the airport checked in all my over weight luggage (3 big luggages 2 for me and 1 for baby) no extra charges the guy was too nice, checked in baby stroller and car seat and my supposed overweight hand luggage..lol... Had 9 hrs layover at Doha was lodged in a hotel...slept for 3hrs before we were taken back to the airport..got to naija on Friday morn..got my luggage and went to the visa on arrival section...paid $200 and I was given change of $10 lol... I left NY exactly 14 days(2weeks) after LO arrival. We are doing great...just adapting to this no light country again..lol.. Thanks everyone who helped out in this journey.. o appreciate you all.. God bless 33 Likes 1 Share |

See how people are calculating someone's conception date and EDD,my neighbour tried conceiving for 6yrs and didn't even know she was preg until the 5th month..what's impossible about the posters predicament...Biko follow this person advise and you will be fine..my elder sister had similar issue and she has renewed her visa over and over again..if you go with some peoples advise here ehen..you will never have the chance to travel to the USA..you will be condemned/seeing yourself as someone who cn never get into the USA ..best wishes iphiechuks: 8 Likes |

hello people, please the hospital i intend using in Florida is Broward Health, It is a walk in hospital so basically they do not give information on the phone or via email but my host recommends the hospital because of the proximity to the house. However, Holy Cross hospital has sent me registration forms, delivery cost and all via email but i do not intend to use their services, my question is can i use the Holy cross correspondence for POE, and if yes, does this mean its not necessary to make deposits before arriving?? 1 Like |

customised87: Pls o I'm overwhelmed with baby care so might not be able to reply everyone... For budget sheet send me an email. For Qatar go to their website and click your location which is US and it will list the customer care no that you can call...I called and booked without LO's passport details...it's not needed..I paid with my GTB naija debit card which was done when I called..gave the CC agent my card details and I was debited and transit hotel reservation was also done on the spot.. For leaving 14 days...I didn't tell anyone because I didn't want anyone to bad mouth, discourage or gimme unnecessary advise.. what I needed was the airlines policy on the no of days an infant is fit to fly which is 14days old and also paediatrician's check up that my LOs is healthy that's all... 7 Likes |

Unfelt: Yes,you can use their correspondence for poe,and yes again,it's not compulsory to make a deposit before travelling. Just have enough money to cover your expenses or evidence to show that you can pay your bills. 1 Like |
