[quote author=Mamatukwas post=65279880]Hi People, Finally Got into Chicago few days back... Yup used thier POE PART 2: CBP: Show me proof that you pay your bills. Me- Brings out reciept for 1st 2 payments... CBP: After going tru my 1st child's own, I see you paid $9k+ to the hospital but the itemized bill shows a total of $16k. What happened to the rest? Me: It's the discount they gave me as a cash paying patient. CBP: Cash paying? I don't know what that means. Me: means I don't have insurance. CBP: Calls his neighbor, that one agrees with him that it doesn't add up. Someone else must have paid. Neigbour: Infact your zero balance letter just says paid in full, it doesn't say who paid. How do we know it's you? Me: Huh I just smiled some more and said pls method of payment is at the back- Cash and cards. Abi that one no do! Neigbour CBP walks away. His work too was done. Me: I quietly bring out the rest of my receipts and continue showing him.. doctor, epi, pediatrician paid in full. CBP: Ok but I still don't get this discount. Calls the hospital... After a while someone picks and tells him that financial dept has closed oh, no one to attend to him. ME: I said must be because of the time (The guy just said he knows) but it doesn't favor me. Me: In my head Yimu! CBP: Which other receipts do you have: Bring out all for child 2 and state that My hospital bill is remaining $1k plus dollars to finish paying. I'm doing payment plan. CBP: Shakes head like this one is not serious hehehe!! So where is the receipt for the one you've paid? Me: Show him all receipts I had for child 2 (other services) and says that they can't give me a reciept for my hospital till I'm done paying however I've printed my BOA statement showing Monthly payment plus Initial cash reciept/deposit I had. CBP: It's not my job to go through your statements, you should come ready to show me proof of payment. Me: In my mind but that's what I have, Abi I should forge documents I sha keep quiet. CBP: Ma'am I don't think you came ready today. I'm Not convinced. Me: Well, I can only say what I know. I've always been upfront. I pay all my bills and I have no intention of owing. Can't say anything else other than that. CBP: Shakes head, and says he's coming. I go back, commit every to Gods hands and again face CNN. CBP comes back after 5 mins: Stamps my passport and tells me to go. Me: Thank you very much and I stroll out. Things i noticed: That secondary inspection is mostly psychological at least at Chicago.. They kept harassing one Naija Man and he was doing well until they told him to bring his phone for search; suddenly the guy became nervous and I heard them jubilating that he was breaking Another middle eastern couple made the unfortunate mistake of lying (separately oh) that the wife was not pregnant. They told them to bring all their bags and found proof showing otherwise. If you see the way they were shouting 'You're liars! You're going home tonight! Latest tomorrow! You have enough luggage for one year! You plan to stay back here! Liars!! Oh boy, inwasbsorry for them. No one advised them. Plenty people there were asked to bring all their luggage for search. They Also asked me if I had an appointment and a return ticket and I said yes to both questions. Honestly I was calm throughout and answered very calmly because I had made up my mind that: 1. It was not a do or die affair, even at that I was going to cross coz Gods hand dey d matter. 2. I was truthful and kept things simple. I can only defend the truth so while you can harass me for not being better prepared according to your standards, you can't harass me for fibs. 3. Don't do Chicago POE if you are not well prepared and have mind. Me I had the mind but if you know you crack under small pressure abeg waka pass mbok! 4. CBP's are not predictable in their pattern of questioning and they might tag team with others to try and harass you. They ended up not even confirming the said cash we came to count sef smh.. it was just to see if any part of my story will/had changed. Finally, the biggest weapon you have on this journey is the truth. It will indeed make you free. I'm currently chilling in my accommodation, counting down to baby Please does anyone know who can cater/deliver bowls of Nigerian food to me in this Town? I'm wakaing solo and trying to be ready for when baby comes. Please if you have any good contact let me know, before hunger finishes me! All the best to all those still on thier way and may it end in praise! Ciao!! 31 Likes 4 Shares |

Hello everyone. Please I have a question. I have a medical visa to birth my baby in April alongside my mom. My husband plans to come around in May. Please is it advisable for him to apply for a visiting visa while I am still in Nigeria or should he wait till I arrive the US in April. Thanks. |

Let her stick to the one she has always use to travel. They have it in their system,my mom almost had the same problem and it almost caused a problem for her. After they had issued her visa,they sent her a message that she need to come for follow up and it was just the age that was the problem. She clarified it by saying she didn't fill the form herself but me and the V.o said No problem that they just needed to clarify her age on their system. She was issued after 3days. Let her stick to the one in her passport and if they ask her question concerning it let her answer that the error was from you. Not a big deal [qqquote author=cindermum post=65226551]Hi All, Please I need your advice. I made a mistake on my mum's DOB when I applied and now I want to apply for her to enable her assist me during my stay in d US . She has been to America a couple of times but not in the past 12yrs with her correct DOB. Now I have to give her my own visa page which would reflect when the consular checks that the DOB on her passport is diff from what I put down. What can I do please? Thank uuuuuu [/quote] |

Ddy2013: I don't know if this applies to your situation,but I've heard people say here that you can fill another ds160 form and call the embassy to swap it with the 1st one you filled. Its because of issues like these and others that you are adviced to stay away from agents. |

First go back to the site with the details of the current form and cancel it then Fill a new form and go to your portal to insert the new number. All this you can do latest 2 days to your interview date. That's all no need to call anybody Ddy2013: |

Good morning everyone. Please I will like to know if a telephone correspondence with my doctor is enough evidence at POE? I do not have any email from the hospital and Dr. E is very busy to send me an email before my trip. Thank you in advance and I hope to meet with any Dallas bound mama for 2nd week in March |

Please, Please, Abeg, Biko, Joor. If you are still here in Naija without the e-mail correspondence, I strongly advice that you get it sorted out before you board your flight, in your own interest. valeria: 1 Like |
