Noooooo,this is so.wrong. please go through the right way o. Your wife should apply for medical visa,still B1/B2. Get a good hospital and their quotation,if u can pay abit before appointment or if not make sure u have more than enough in your account when you are going for appointment. But meanwhile make sure u get an appointment date,which is the first thing to do.
Or better still please read through and see how its done properly. I went for a follow up interview and a lady was denied visa renewal simply because she used her visiting visa for birthing purpose.

Niveakreamy89:
You know there is not one way it getting this visa. But are you trying to say she can go to the embassy boldly with tummy showing and request for birth? Make una dey talk true ooooo. Well I said what I said. Oga your wife can not go there with big tummy. I saw a lot on my own day. So over to the elders.

You are talking nonsense, yes one can get a visa to give birth in US even when visibly pregnant during the interview

All the VO wants to know is whether the applicant can comfortably afford giving birth in US and return to Nigeria.

Tag one person that went there with tummy and did not lie about medical condition that got the visa. Abeg show me one person and then I will take my nonsense talk back.

I get your point.
In the past, we could get a B visa just because we wanted to go to the US to give birth. Effective January 2020, the US embassy has stopped issuing visas for the sole purpose of birth tourism. I have attached a screenshot from the Embassy's website.
In recent times, people have been travelling either with tourist visa (I hear you need to inform the embassy before travelling to give birth) or medical visas (with proof of why you need to travel for medical. Pregnancy related or not).
Even women who are not visibility pregnant and go for a tourist visa interviews are warned not to use it for childbirth without informing the embassy.
I got my tourist visa renewed in 2019 via dropbox and travelled to give birth in 2021. I wasn't aware that I needed to send an email (my last 3 renewals were via dropbox, so I haven't had an interview in over 7 years). I submitted for renewal via Interview Waiver and was asked to go schedule a follow up interview. Other people who sent the email had their visas renewed via Interview Waiver with no hassle.

UmmZayd:


Okay. Let me explain the "can't go with big tummy". The wife can go with big tummy if at the end she actually needs that "medical treatment at any US hospital" as long as she states the reason why she's going and she qualifies, they will not deny. Going with big tummy doesn't mean anything. Even though it's clearly stated that "you can't apply for visa for the sole purpose of birthing" there are still exceptions for women that apply for visa for the sole purpose of birthing.

Ma’am we are saying the same thing. Thank you

That update was 2yrs ago during Trump administration, B-1/B-2 visa holder can still give birth in US if you are able to convince the VO why you should be issued a visa.

You don't have to hid your tummy or lie during the interview because if you do you still get caught at the long run.

Toritse321:

Thank you babestell,

How many weeks was your 1st baby when you returned to Nigeria for the remaining Vaccinations. I'm thinking of doing same at 6/7 weeks. Just wondering what the effect would be

Somandla:

Hi,

Can you kindly please share Dr Z contacts.

Niveakreamy89:
[img]the only time she can go with big tummy which is still 50/50 is when she wants to claim complications (Godforbid ooo) and you will back it up with doctors appointment both Nigeria and American doctor that has accepted to take her with her condition[/img]. And then pray for high Favour.

AmeliaT:
Congratulations! Send them a message to notify them. My sister in law went to give birth and was called aside with 11 other Nigerian pregnant women. 11 were deported and she was the only one who made it in because she had sent them an email notifying them of her pregnancy and intent to give birth there. The others were told they were deceitful in their applications. The same thing happened to a colleague, my bank officer and a mutual friend- mutual friend was very rude and constituted a nuisance and was slapped with a 5-year ban as well.

Cover your tracks by sending that email. All the best!

Smartangels:
My dear, this is completely false

As for as u are well quiped with the vital document, u can always declare ur intentions with ur big tummy.

I'm first two birth was gotten while pregnant. I was even 6months give when I got one

Niveakreamy89:
Hi ma’am I don’t mean at the point of entry o. I am taking about the interview. Correct me if I am wrong sha. Do they grant birthing visa like before?? That is what I am trying to clarify. My 1st visa I was 5 month pregnant and I went there with everything and got the visa without no stress. My question is do they still give that? Because since trump canceled it no one has reversed it. But I might be wrong.

Hi please can you help me with sample letter of intent I can use to present at the point of entry please. And also which e-mail address will I forward the letter to. Thank you appreciate

justwise:


There is no sample or specific format of such letter, just send a letter to the embassy indicating that you want to use the visa for child birth.

Mumsyfiyin:


I wanted to send this letter till someone mentioned they really don't take this letters into consideration except declaring to the CBP officers.

Don't know which is which .

koko83:

Heard you can only be allowed to birth if you intend not to obtain citizenship

ardel:
