Thanks dear

Won't be due till August o...still have a long way to go lol. Just want to equip myself before then. Please I won't mind information on affordable hospital and doc. I can see most people tend towards Texas and doctorsepirati. Though my dad is in newyork but that doesn't determine anything....na bill be the mail thing. How soon do I need to contact a doc over there.
NB : No state or hospital in mind yet.....any advice is welcome from my experienced mummies in the house . Thanks

u still have plenty of time... U can do the change of intent later.
U can start contacting Dr's don't forget to add accommodation to the bill and know how much in total. New York u don't need to pay for accommodation vs paying for accommodation in Houston for example.
Just keep reading the thread it will help u make up ur mind

Firstly. God is the most important thing you need. You also need to be careful of what you say and you must be extra smart. Don't lie if you can't cover up for yourself because they might tell you to show them proof. She was told to declare all her assets which she did. Then they asked her how much she had (cash at hand = $5500) They told her that's too small to give birth in he USA but she had proof for more cash in her account to cover up for her medical bills and she never wanted to carry too much money with her. She had to wise up and tell the immigration officers that she's due too. Lol. So after some time them jump stamp her gidigba for 6 months. Lol

Have you checked Google? That should be the first go to. I found this for you
How long does it take to get my baby's Social Security card that I applied for in the hospital?

Each state or jurisdiction has different processing times. See the chart below to find out how long your state takes to process the card application.

If you waited the indicated length of time and still have not received your child's Social Security card, visit your local Social Security office. You also can call us at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) between 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. If you live outside the United States, refer to Service Around the World.

If you had your baby in Houston, it should take about 8days or more to get to you. But one month is quite long. Did you call the SSN to complain?
There is a possibility that your SSN is missing somehow.
A friend of mine had same experience, she had to go to their office to reapply and they sent her another one.

Hello fellow mothers, I have been able to learn a whole lot as I plan for the trip ahead. I will be going to Houston via Delta airlines and so it is a connecting flight. Please I will like to know how and when you apply for the wheelchair services as I may need it as I am quite heavy already.
I will really appreciate your reply and congrats to all the new mamas.

I delivered in Houston, nfact same facility n Dr wt Ozycy n Firsttymum. God abeg oo, make my own no enter voice mail.

I think I may have to call them oo, I just pray it's not something that will demand my presence cos I'm already back to naija. Thanks.
