Hey guys please within Turkish airline and virgin Atlantic which is preferable also I'm traveling with my toddler, please those who have flown these airline I need review to make a decision,thank you .

i would say Virgin atlantic is a no no for me, i flew virgin sometimes this year with my toddler and i regretted it. they aint child friendly, infact as soon as they see you ve an infant or a toddler, they tell you to stay aside and all sort of runnish. i didnt enjoy their services at all. just that its easier and faste to get to the states via UK(Europe)

Good afternoon house, Please I need clarification on this.
I dropped our(myself&hubby) passports on tuesday for dropbox application. I received a mail today to schedule an interview, however my husband didnt reveive any. And in my own mail, they used singular words e.g dear applicant, pick your passport, etc. Please how can we confirm his own application status? we need to know this because ot requires us to travel and wont be neccassary he does if he has bin given.

For mothers that used Oakbend, pls did you get an itemìzed invoice for your renewal interview? because the doctors' and hospitals zero balances only may not be sufficient. Thanks.

Congratulations. The bold lines got you the visa. Good that you let the VO know it's because of dual citizenship. Someone in your same situation that have travel to UK many times was refused, the VO asked her why not give birth in UK but she did not tell the VO what they expect to hear. It's time to open up during the interview to let the VO know it's because of the dual citizenship. I salute your courage, congrats!!!

Be careful ! You don't know who is who here!

To ease your boredom, go to memorial mall, galleria or the mall on westheimer (highway 6), spend the entire day..enter shops, feed your eyes and go home. You can also visit the zoo

Hmm. Word. Thanks. I got carried away.

That's true. Irony of life

The weird part of life... you stay with "friends" and it's a nightmare, you stay with complete strangers and they jump hoops to please you, for little in return. Sometimes those we call "friends" are simply strangers in disguise.

My people, ejo, biko, pls, those whose mum/mum-in-law have gone for visa interview, pls i need ur help/info/advice.

Are the following documents sufficient for her to take with her for interview? Copies of my visa page, my last baby’s US passport data page, zero balance etc for the last trip, doctor’s correspondence for the next trip, evidence that she is retired (to show her previous work history).

Pls what else should I give her apart from the basics, confirmation page, GTB Payment receipt etc

Any tips on what she should be prepared for?

Hello, pls how did u add infant ticket and how much was it?
when u get to the airport, u give them ur visa on arrival approval letter, they then print out the ticket. I think it cost me about 113 or 117. dollars... but it wasn't up to 120 dollars... some pple have actually paid less, like 80 dollars. I think it depends on the period. mine was in December.

Are you the primary applicant? i.e. is it your details on the ustraveldocs or appointment portal?

I was the primary applicant and I got the same mail and it was "dear applicant" but both our passports were returned. My DH didn't get that mail. You will get another message from ustraveldocs when your passport is ready for pick up. That's when you will know if your husband was given the visa or not.

Let's know how it goes

Eh... if you got a 221g "refusal" (i.e. applied via Dropbox and asked to schedule interview) you may not be able to expedite your appointment.

The date I got for interview was two days to my travel date (I was going for a meeting). I tried to expedite it.. called, emailed and chatted with their customer care agent and was told that you can't expedite a 221g appointment.

There is no harm in trying though.
