gunuvi: U funny o. Does suspecting someone becoming a crime now on NL?

I think you'll find Justwise and others (definitely me) are wondering what your cryptic comment means.

Suspect him of what?

informatix: Please Help. i want to ask. Is it true if you Apply for US. Visa they will give you 6months Appointment for interview?. I want to have the Idea of the Time limit between application and interview.

eyoniggar: Simply scan the visa page and post it here on Nairaland, scan it in such a way that vital info wnt be revealed on here.

eyoniggar: @OP, you are getting more bashing than normal response to your original post. Simply scan the visa page and post it here on Nairaland, scan it in such a way that vital info wnt be revealed on here.

My Wife had travelled to US twice btwn 2009-2011 on visitors VISA, she was issued one year VISA twice those visits, and she only spent two weeks the first time,and spent 3 weeks the second time. Last year august, she applied, then she was given multiple this time and was never asked a single question about being pregnant and all that in which she was already 4months pregos then.

She gave birth December and the hospital bill was crazy, the clinic bills alone was up to $6,000, while the hospital bill was like 16,000 dollars plus, I quickly seek solution as to how I can take care of the bills. My cousin over there advised that my wife should apply for an emergency medical insurance for the hospital bill only, then we can pay the clinic bills ourselves. I was able to pay $4,320 out of the clinic bills, 2 days after making the payment over a month period after applying for the medical insurance, my wife received response from the hospital that the Medical insurance has been approved, not only for the hospital bill, but also for her clinic bills, I was really surprised. Now sorry OP for derailing your thread, but is any1 here that knows about this medical insurance? Will it affect my wife when next she wants to re-apply? If it will affect her, I might have to make proper arrangements to make the payment, but is there anyway to cancel the insurance coverage? Kinda confused. Any help would do.

somebody: Why were not prepared for the bills when you and wife decided she would have your kid there? These are the things the US Embassy seriously frowns upon. Your wife went to have a baby there and you guys did not have a plan in place as to how you were going to foot the bills? I am not the US Embassy but 1)She was pregnant when she applied for the visa and probably said the reason for her visit was visiting family or whatever. However, she went on have her baby there so she lied about her reason for applying for the visa. 2)Emergency medical insurance? Whats that? I haven't heard of that one. But the US Embassy will want to see evidence of all bills paid. To be on the safe side, I will suggest you pay the bills yourself. Ask for a payment plan from the hospital. And next time, you should ask the hospital in advance for the self pay option - its always a lot more cheaper. Perhaps you can still ask them for that option, your bills could be slashed in half if you are lucky.

eyoniggar:

We never planned for her to have the baby there, she was going to spend 3 or 4 weeks as usual strictly for shopping. But we decided in the 2nd week that she could just stay over and have the baby there. Now as for the bills, we called the hospital where she was gonna give birth and we made inquries regarding what the bills were like, and we were told that its gonna cost us $8,000, but since shes a foreign patient, she's eligible to 52% off of the total amount, with the bill being calculated to $4,000 plus, I knew I could afford it. Not until after birth, I saw what was an estimated clinic bills: 6k, and hospital bill $16kplus. This although was due to the fact that she had to be attended to specially due to some minor complications during labor.

Now if I am gonna have to pay,they'll have to cancel the medical insurance, and also they'll slash the bill 52% off, which will still bring about an affordable amount for me to pay.

Mamabi: Mamathrice, I am in the same situation and I will need your advice before reapplying. What was your answer to the section that ask if you have ever been denied US visa in your application? And what were the reasons you gave? Will appreciate your response please.

jennykadry: @MamaThrice

Pay them no mind. They are too busy being selfish to actually understand what pains you experienced when you were denied. I am going to say this not to bring tears to your eyes but show my understanding of your situation. Your first child is a citizen and the second isn't. At this stage you are safe cos the second I am guessing is still a young child but as time goes on this child will begin to ask you questions of why the first child is a citizen and he/she isn't. How can you tell your child that your lies cost him "the chance to a better life"? You all wanno travel overseas, the first child brings out his/her American passport, the second brings out the nigerian one wishing he had the same as the first.

I understand all of these and I think these bloody son and daughters of BS's are too concerned trying to look pretty and handsome than actually trying to see things from a different point of view. I am happy you said the truth and I am happy you got the visa. I don't know the process of an adult becoming a US citizen but I think the second child can get a chance to citizenship, the only problem is it will take longer.

All the best and kisses from me to you

PS Do not upload nothing, I have also been asked to upload my marriage certificate on this site many times, to prove what? like they contributed a dime to my welfare right from the day I was brought into this world

gunuvi:
Sure, suspecting the mod of trying to get varieties of opinions from everyone by first supporting the op from the beginning cos I believe he or she should have known better. And if you look at my post after that, I gave her my blessing after realising that she is still sticking to her stand. NL is full of folks who might wants to seek for opinions before attempting.

gunuvi:
I am still expecting your words o. As my comments may be cryptic to you but sure very understandable to most NL. It is a pity Naija will be better sha and very soon, everyone will have a free will to share their feelings without discrimination or coercion. No one is an island of knowledge.

manny4life: @Mamathrice

You owe no one any explanation, when your child gets to an appropriate age, 18 yrs of age to be precise, they will file necessary paperwork to be a U.S. Citizen. Just because you lied shouldn't be a deterrent, just focus and once again, congratulations on your visa.

On that note, though I'm not certain which, but under certain Obama Administration laws, children can be U.S. Citizens under different waivers. Now I do not know how these apply because it sure never applied to me, but certain waivers exist, explore them.

Whatever you set out to do, write and save all correspondence. If you tell the hospital to return the money to medicaid, write a letter, send it with registered mail. Save receipts or any payments that you make.

Actually it is when the child turns 21years
