Go with your Fit to Fly letter from your doctor, dey may request for it and may still send you to port health. Yes the port health report will be gotten during checking in on the day of travel . My fit to fly from doc was asked after wch I was sent to port health.

Hi All,

Is there a separate group of agents who only help to procure ETC from the US Embassy? cos I have contacted the two popular agents and they both say they don't offer that service. I know Nefertitiram highlighted the steps recently.

If anyone knows an agent who can help with the ETC thing, kindly share her/his contact.

Thanks

You can make a fresh booking and take that booking

Hope this helps

If you are sure you will be traveling by 1St week December, den change your ticket and proceed to the passport agency. Or I learnt you can book a dummy ticket ( booking without payment) .

You have to give them your reference number so they will attach your baby's ticket to your own. It's not suppose to be close to that amount even if they want to calculate 10% of your fare

Budget sheet: https://www.nairaland.com/617280/give-birth-usa-cost-procedure/105#25802670

Your change of accommodation should not be an issue, just explain to the VO if it comes up. Best of luck

Thank you so much @Shawlar, God bless you for the link you sent, so much information and things I dint know I had to do.

I delivered @ 36 weeks and 6 days, just one day short of my scheduled date for elective CS. I went into labor because I had spent days crying as I lost a dear aunt. I used CS although the doctors tried encouraging me to try vd

I really don't think we should post their number her, so that we don't overwhelm them, or make them jack up their prices. Besides they are not paying anyone for advert here.

Most people have been sharing via pm. Shoot me a pm, I will respond with their details

Your contact person should be your host; contact address also.... (although some people put in their docs details sha)
Relationship is relationship btw contact person and yourself
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:12am On Nov 12, 2015
Thank you so much...
Adiahabasi:
I wrote section 214b..i.e the reason for denial...no need for unneccesary story.keep it simple.. If d VO asks verbally sef,if i were you I would say I don't know why I was denied(in actual sense..they dont give a specific reason..so one can never be so sure). As for sponsor put in ur husband...if asked you can say both of you verbally..I stand to be corrected but i think your dr should be your contact person since that's the primary reason for the trip.

Hello, please what did you use to apply for the naija passport and how did you go about it?, a friend of mine said it can't be done since the baby has a us passport...
OsyCollins:


Thanks, they got the BC & Naija passport yesterday but couldn't go to the US passport office. I want to find out which exact office did u get d US passport from (in 24 working hours) ? Cos they went online for appointment & got 13th Nov & she said they claimed it takes 5 working days after the appointment. While the post office said 3--4 weeks. Just need a Lil guidelines on d US passport ASAP, sorry for always bugging you, guess you are the one closer home the most wink
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:18am On Nov 12, 2015
Thanks for answering...
shawlar:


Use ur host place of work... although personally, I feel that space is for if an organisation is hosting you
Also use ur hubby as sponsor on the form. You can explain to the VO verbally if you'll be co-sponsoring... Point out the transfers 4rm ur hubby on the statement if necessary
As for the denial, I don't really know cos I've not been denied b4 wink but I don't think they give explanations to peeps as to why they were denied sha)
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:20am On Nov 12, 2015
Thanks a lot
whiiteroses:


Burden of proof are all the documents needed for visa interview. It is also used at the POE to show the CBP or when sent to secondary inspection, showing them you are well prepared. For example
Doctor's correspondence, Budget sheet
Fit to fly, notification/change of intent letters to and from the embassy, statement of account etc to mention a few... or any other documents that you think would be necessary. @cinakin the above answer applys to you too.

For MIHS, you have to call or email them to clarify that.
The word 'port' means to change from one doctor or state to another. For port health someone mentioned something relating to that some pages back. I hope this helps

Thank you Lady G, don't mind me, I just needed answers. God bless
LadyGuinivere:

I agree with him.
IMO u have no biz with your host's place of work. Keep it simple.
Fill contact which is ur address. Leave the other. I don't believe I filled it.
Free advice @ Cinakin : calm down. You are sounding panicked
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:26am On Nov 12, 2015
Thank you so much favoredgal...
favoredgal:


This is an opportunity to explain ur case and put urself in a good standing before u meet the vo

Yes u don't know exactly why u were denied but u have idea. Use the space to tell the vo what has changed in ur circumstances btw then and now

For example my husband had been denied twice and I assumed it's because he had an immigration case pending even tho they dint tell him. When we got married and I filled his form I used that space to explain why he isn't a flight risk, married, good job, earns x amount etc, for the first time ever during his interview his pending immigration status did not even come up and he got the visa

So for people that have been denied before that is the most important part of the form in my opinion
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:28am On Nov 12, 2015
My dear... Thanks a lot... Please can I pm you?its urgent.. Learnt your entire bill is less than 5k?
ozycy:
@ cinakin,
I think you should explain why you were denied in the space provided if you hav any idea. I explained mine after I was refused and yes the VO read it thoroughly and was nodding before she looked up to ask me the normal routine questions. I assume she v already made up her mind to issue the visa after reading my reason for refusal.
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by cinakin: 2:29am On Nov 12, 2015
Yes! Phema, thanks a lot...
Phema:


Dunno if this has been handled.

Your contact person should be your host, same for the contact address. The relationship is the relationship between you and your host. Is s/he a friend, uncle, aunty, cousin etc?

Your contact organisation should be your hospital's/Dr's office (either address or phone number).

For burden of proof, please refer to page 105 of part 1.

Hi ozycy; I bought from next for a device sent from the US; it's just 2k and you just ask those pple at the pay point at the electronic section. It's one small pack usually on a shelve close to them.
Btw; I wish I know the day you'd be in next cash n carry; would've been at d entrance asking every woman: are u ozycy? Lol

my baby's ticket was more than this.
You're entitled to two free checked in 50lb/23kg bags, one carry on/ hand luggage and one personal bag ( e.g hand bag or laptop bag. I had both though.)
Baby is entitled to one free checked in 50lb/23kg bag, one car seat and stoller, and one diaper bag.
