Thank you SO much for this post! This idea that discounted prices infer some kind of government subsidy is erroneous to say the least! And while the Embassy is well within its rights to highlight any criteria it sees for visa issuance, the truth remains the truth. Prompt pay discounts have absolutely nothing to do with any ones taxes. These hospitals offer these incentives to minimize their billing cycles and the potential losses from having to chase money after service delivery. I wonder why no one challenges the cash pay pricing given by the OB, Anesthesiologist, Pediatrician, even the Labs have discounts for people who pay cash upfront. This is not a foreign concept! Theres no denying that so many Nigerians have taken advantage of programs specifically geared towards the under served in certain communities but this is purely a case of painting with a broad brush.

Correct.

Please do they ask for birth receipts and discounts on the receipts at the point of renewal too?

I wasn't asked for any if these.

APPLICATION RECEIVED: In essence, they haven't touched your file "proper", relax all the same, except for the "needing my passport out for something urgent" part.

Begin to worry some bit if status changes to "Administrative Processing" and doesn't change to "Issued" in 2-3 workdays thereafter.... All the best!

Hi house, I want to know how airbnb.com works for those that have used it in the past. Do I have to make payment for at least 1 month to be able to book the place down? is there any other alternative site I can use to make apartment bookings, I'll appreciate some help here. I am filling this DS-160 form and I need to add an address of where DW will be staying since we have no one in the states, any help on this aspect too will be of great value to me.

Thanks.

Go to booking.com and use your Naija ATM card and make a reservation at any accommodation close to the hospital your wife is using,and print out your reservation.You will not be charged until the date of your booking. Make sure you cancel it a day before the due date if you are not going to use it so that your card won't be charged if not you'll be charged for a night if you don't cancel or show up.
No you don't have to make payment for at least one month to be able to book airbnb. You pay for the number of days needed.

Actually, not quite correct.
For booking.com, you will have to check and make sure the hotel/ accommodation you are booking had FREE CANCELLATION otherwise your card will be debited or a hold placed on funds depending on the policy of the hotel you choose so check and make sure.

For air bob, most accommodations will ask for some kind of upfront payment, and some do have free cancellation. Again, it’s accommodation dependent and you have to read the terms and cancellation policies of the host before booking.

Can anyone kindly help with information on how to go about ETC ( Emergency Travel certificate) application quickly and how long does it take.

He’s trying to limit the number of immigrants who intend to make the United States their Permanent Home especially those from Africa...

It’s funny when I listen to folks say that Former President Barack Obama never did anything for the Black Man while he was in office...

But what most people fail to realize was that President Barack Obama actions was frustrated & blocked by the Republicans led House & Senate...

Even House Leader Mitch McConnell said & I quote “My number priority is to make President Barack Obama a one term President”

President Barack Obama didn’t have any other option but to use Executive Decision to push through his landmark Signature Accomplishments...

President Barack Obama Accomplishment on Immigration:

A) The Marvin Program: I know a lot of people even personally here from Nairaland who joined the United States Military & immediately became U.S. Citizens within 6 months to 1 year...

B) DACA Program: This is mainly for undocumented immigrants who where brought to the United States as kids. A lot of Mexicans & Spanish people benefited immensely from this program...

C) TPS Program: This is mainly for individuals from worn torn countries & areas of natural disasters like Earthquake i.e. Haiti & Sudan

Now ask yourself what has President Donald J Trump done for people in Regards to immigration absolutely nothing...

There’s a reason he is known as destroyer in chief

A) He signed a Legislation effectively banning foreign nationals from seven predominantly Muslim Countries from entering the United States

B) He wants to rescind & eliminate the Obama era DACA Program

C) He also wants to rescind & eliminate the Obama era TPS Program

Even when it comes to the economy, President Donald J Trump is simply taking credit for the Great Economy left by Former President Barack Obama & Former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke

Former President Barack Obama inherited a worst economy from Former President W. Bush but was able to turn the economy around during his 8 year tenure as President of the United States including overseeing the Great Recession in 2008...

By the time, he left office the Economy of the United States was definitely in the right trajectory...

It’s very funny when I listen to folks make mention that President Donald J Trump has done more for Blacks than Former President Barack Obama did during his 8 year stint as the President of the United States...

That simply shows me that most people are unable to make an independent research for themselves & can easily be brainwashed...
