Hello drafrican, sorry to bother you again I am trying to order for my baby's birth certificate on vitalchek and its asking for my ssn to place the order, I even tried using 4 zeros but it still not going, is there another way of doing it. I filled the form at the hospital though but I don't know how to go about it or check if its ready. I just don't want to waste time in processing the documents. Please how did you get yours.

Try 8 zeros. The SSN is more than 4 digit no.

Medical grounds do qualify but you need full supporting documents to show that you are really pressed for time. You can try your luck for expedited, I think a mama her has gotten while some have come to say the expedited interview date request wasn't granted. So just try in all

Congrats to all the latest mamas and LOs, still following and goodluck to the future mamalettes. May we all be granted with our heart desires in this new month.

Yes i think it qualifies u,because pregnancy is under medical and medical reasons qualifies for expedited appointment,especially when u are running out of time on your delivery date. So give it try it will work.

Hi,

I think one of the major reason for the denial is that you have a 10 month old son yoi plan to leave behind in Nigetia for a while. May i suggest you reapply with him?

I may be wrong but that was a red flag to me...all the very best!

Freshtestimony, sorry I literally dozed off since my madam had slept off too, since you said you have a guy you used during your SA trip if he did well you can use him again, let him take the cash sha just incase bank decides to do upgrade that day and network is bad via ebanking. Or let him go to Sulah in the airport there, they have a stand abi office in the arrival terminal beside the firstbank atm and they also have at the departure terminal but i'm so so certain about the exact place it's located there but it shouldn't be hard to find, please all these my descriptions are if he is flying from muritala mohammed intl airport o

Udy05:
Good morning good pple NL. Can someone pls come 2 my rescue on this

If you read FADEO s account you will understand why you were denied.

Travel history, esp as a family. Be that as it may. It doesn't mean people without travel history don't get visas but the chances are slim

oluwainfin:
Good People of Nairaland, I need your help.

My mum wasn't interviewed today, Reason:

Her DS-160 code is different from her appointment confirmation code.

The official said to try to reschedule an appointment in the next two working days, challenge is the next available date is Jan 5th and her ticket is Dec20. Is there anyway to fasttrack her appointment? She is going with DW for birthing purpose.

Thanks for your help!

Please what is the implication of overstaying in the US after your Visa expiration and how does it affect subsequent visa renewal and visits

Your visa is only required to take you to the border. The CBP will stamp you in for 6mths or less.

My visa expired august 2015. I left US October, just before the date on my i94 expired. I renewed in January, and my visa was issued. I was called to interview cos I stayed for 5 to 6 months but my records were updated on the system that I went to have a baby.
I have been to the US after then and it has been hitch free

Except you go with your doctors report stating serious reasons why you need medical attention abroad.
Good luck

Buying dollars is more expensive at MMA but if you have to sell that's your best place. Any external Mallam will give a better rate than those at the airport. DM for a link to someone who might be able to help

Read her comment and be careful o

chloe7:

Wait till December middle / ending ticket prices will drop a bit then or even that Jan, i'm also due to travel January but i'm chilling till January to buy the ticket

What of PTA? Won't that affect it.. Since PTA now is to queue.

I pray it drops... Cos from what I'm seeing hmmmm

Qatar has a flight to Washington from 17th January - 30th March for 369k and next cheapest is Ethiopian Airline with 420k. You can get a local ticket from there to Dallas.

Direct flight to Dallas is About 560k.

The layover is quite long for Qatar tho, so you can give it a shot if you won't mind...

Just found a ticket with Egypt Air to New York sometime in January to Mid February for N299k...

You can go to their website and play around with dates and maybe get the deal for a date that suits you. You can get a local flight to your final destination.

Just helping out guys...

is it just me but i think the rate of denial is now on the increase lately. Could be anything but i think all loose ends should be tied now before going for interview.

@Rhonkee, i remember you saying something about changing your DS-160 form, are you sure nothing on the form is contrary to what you said at the interview or you didn't fill anything misleading?

[quote author=lively123 post=51567728][/quote]

Thanks for your reply.
Yes we wanted to change the DS 160 firm then because we applied fr vacation initially instead of childbirth.
We were able to change it a week to the interview. Besides the only question in this printed interview here that is in the DS 160 I think is the "what do you do"
We didn't lie about anything at all.
I'm just disturbed about the whole thing mahn!

Calling on everyone to please come to my rescue!

I really wanted this. It'll be my first baby.

I applied for a B2 visa, no lies in everything I filled in my form.
@nefertiti @furstymun @chibertha @justwise and every other person pls help me look into this I beg you.
What can I do differently please?

hi mamas,

Please quick question for the house / frequent flyers.

Does anyone know when do the counters open in MMA?

Say I am travelling on a flight that leaves at 11pm.

Can I go and check in my bags as early as 3pm, 4pm? Is that possible? I have a non missionary journey coming up and need to make some plans...
