Hello Poster. How is your daughter's health now. Kindly share update

Hello house, I shared my POE experience a few pages behind ( this is to show Im not a hoarder of information ) so please someone help me with my own question too. I will be processing baby's passport in New York. I'll like to know if the Consent form from d father can be signed in the presence of a notary public or must it be at the US embassy. Thanks

Hello! Hope your trip was good . Please what hospital and dr are you using in New Jersey . I plan on going to New Jersey but not much information here on New Jersey .
I'll apppreciate a reply

Hi, I am using Dr Fares and St. Mary's general hospital

Hello house, This is me giving back �
I got into the US on 18th of September at 35 weeks pregnant through Turkish airline with my toddler. I went with my fit to fly from my doctor to the airport but they insisted I still go to port health ( I feel they are just looking for business for themselves jare). The lady at the porthealth was soo cold saying they never issue fit to fly at 35 weeks. I knew she was just being difficult so I insisted that it's on my airline policy that 35wks is okay. She finally did it and afterwards, my hubby dash her 1k...come and see her shine the brightest smile ever. Smh!!.
Anyway I almost missed my connecting flight at Turkey cus it was just 1 hr wait but thank God we made it. I travelled with my toddler.
We finally got to New York and the queue was so oooo long. A lady came to move us to self service, I got my slip and was moved to poe. This was the fastest interrogation ever!!
The officer asked why I was there...I said child birth. He then asked how much I had, I told him. The officer had no issue but his colleagues ear stood cus d money was like 9500 and so the colleague interrogated further , if it was because I didn't want to declare 10k that I made it 9500, I said no, that it just happened that was how much I got after changing to dollars. He said okay and they stamped my visa. He asked me what food I had, I said garri and could not even translate the others in English (pap, amala, crayfish, ogbono). He just asked me to go, didn't even send me to Agric

I kept looking back cus I didn't believe that was all. Then I noticed my son's passport wasn't stamped but didn't want to go back to same guy before he will remember something he forgot. So I asked another officer walking by who then told me they don't stamp pasport for citizens again.
I was so happy cus nothing was asked sef even though I had carried everything. I had my toddler in US in 2015 but I wasn't even asked for receipts.

My visa was b1/B2 which was renewed through Dropbox in December. I almost wanted to travel during the course of the year just to "use" the visa for visit purpose but thank God I didn't! .

I'm in New jersey now in a rented apartment waiting for baby's arrival. I'm still yet to understand this notarisarion from Naija and VOA cus my hubby was here the last time. Hopefully I will understand it before baby comes, if not, someone who has done it in NJ can give me expo.
All the best guys

Hello house. Please o, for mothers who have had baby girls in the US, how did you manage with their ear piercing. Please explain giving details of cost and procedure. Thanks

Good day Everyone,
Please i want to know if the Consent form that will be notarized by the non-applying parent must have the date of birth? can it be skipped because i e is in dec

Hello I've been trying to respond to your pm but not working. You can message me on issybaz@yahoo.com

Hello House,
Please, has anyone used St. Mary's general hospital in New jersey or any general hospital for that matter. The reviews online are really bad but that's the only place my doctor uses. Just wondering if things are really that bad

Is anyone here travelling to New jersey between September and November and will like to share accommodation. kindly reach out

[quote author=Uniquezuri post=59605208]Awwww... i thought you were Houston bound.. that's way expensive oo. I got quotes for vbac from 3 different docs and 2 hospitals in houston.the quotes i have (adding hospital and doctor fees) is about 10k. Paediatrician should be about $400 to $500 max. 28k is not beans mehn



Please can you share these hospitals. Thanks

This is not true. I did a vbac in New jersey and I paid the price for vaginal delivery. Unless if you are telling me that it is different for Houston.

Doctors charge more for VBAC as well. Typically more expensive than what they would charge for CS. Not uncommon for the price to be the cost of CS x 2. [/quote]

Hello house, please I want to clarify something here...is it true that vbac is not done in houston? . I just stumbled on this gist and I am really surprised. I've even done 1 vbac, this is my 2nd I'm attempting but a lady with a similar story here said she wasn't able 2 get it. If anyone has had any experience with vbac in Houston, kindly share. Thanks
P.'s vbac is vaginal birth after cs

Good morning house, please for those of us that have gone on 2nd missionary journey, what zero balance receipts do you present when asked at poe. Is it individual ones from each practitioner, like doctor, paediatrician, hospital etc. Cus I just realised there isn't just one receipt but several. Thanks

@Dwebb55 Good morning. I intend to use Inova fairfax in Virginia. could you please share the name of the doctor you used and the cost. Does the doc have reservations on the age of pregnancy before taking on patients. I will be staying in Baltimore. I will really appreciate a response from you so I can go ahead and buy my ticket today. Thanks

P.S I have read through the whole thread and this info hasn't been shared before

Hello house...no one has answered my question o...so i here i go to post it again...thanks
Good morning house, how are you all doing. I had my first baby in 2015 on a B1/B2 visa after visiting on the visa first. I have renewed the visa without any stress in december. i will like to have my other babies in US this year. My worry is should i visit on the visa first (like i did before)or just go and deliver. Has anyone had experience with this lately. I think I may be pregnant ...thus travelling for the fun of it is not really ideal 4 me. Any suggestions

@ Awelekiti..thank you for your detailed explanation. I guess my refusal is just a sign of the economic times we are in. I submitted invitation letter o ...someone who just got PR invited me (she has successfully invited her mum and sis reccently too). so i guess she should be quite eligible

@ chco...thank you for your response. My purpose of visit was just christmas holiday oo...I don't know what else they want me to write. i just wan come flex 4 canada...shikena!

I schooled in Uk and did not stay back, I have travelled to uk like 2ce after graduation in 2010' I have travelled to us twice with hubby and had our baby there last year, I have been to Dubai, India, Egypt and Ghana.so I can't really understand why we were refused. Myself and hubby have very good jobs and have never been refused visa! ever!. I was thinking of reapplying from US on our next visit (I have heard many people mention that here) but I have no ties with the U.S. not even a bank account, so I have been wondering how to go about it. Experienced gurus in the house, please help me. Or should I just do it in Naija and repackage well cc: jay fierce, awelekiti, And every other gurus in the house...please help

Hello house, Please, I am about to do dropbox but one of the instructions on the letter is do not drop anything not requested. Does that mean I cannot drop my receipts in my dropbox just to show my non-indebtredness. Experienced persons...pls answer o. thanks

i was denied visa on the basis of travel history, purpose of visit and ties to canada and home. so sad!. I have never been denied a visa. I will just renew my US visa, then try again...hopefully in January.

jayfierce:

You ticked that you would like to receive monthly updates in your CIC account. I still continued to receive that monthly update even after Visa approval. I've disabled it accordingly.

Oh thanks, jayfierce...I was begining to wonder which kind insult upon injury b this

Good morning house. I got a mail from CIC yesterday telling me there has been no update on my account. why are they trying to rub it in . Is this normal tho or is it because I keep checking my cic account everyday. By the way, i submitted on sep 30 and did my biometrics oct 9 or so.

paparazzi1987:


Your mum app, was it Online or paper route?

@paparazzi...abeg answer oo, we are many waiting for your response.

[quote author=OmoAje1 post=49970842]Hello House,

Please I need ur assistance, is it compulsory to upload the marriage certificate n children's birth certificate. If compulsory under which uploadable option I should upload it. Is it under letter of explanation or Purpose of travel.

I don't they request for child's BC in online...at least, it wasn't requested in mine. For your marriage certificate, it will be written there for you to just click and upload.

I believe you can still upload the letter of invitation and maybe data page of the invitee on proof of relationship.

P.S...i Just submitted and yet to get a response but these are my own thoughts.

Hello house, I have been struggling with compressing a pdf file and thought someone may be able to help. I already compressed from 9mb to 4.13 but its not compressing any further and I can't upload unless it is 4mb. I can't take out anything cus its my financial evidence so its quite bulky...any tips pls. I want to submit today ooo

jayfierce:


Confirm you've filled ALL sections? Even if a section does not apply to you please put NA.

I have researched deeper and found answers online. I think I am to print and get my hubby to sign since he is authorizing me to submit on his behalf, same as when one uses a representative or an attorney. It kind of makes sense since,it is authorisation. Thanks guys for your response. the only other confusing thing is that, for payment..it shows 2 for visa application but 1 for biometrics

^^^
Were you able to download the form or had problem in downloading? If you were able to download the form, you should be able to upload it after filling it.

i was able to download it. but it came up with a clear message that I cannot save it. so I fill but can't save.and i need to save to upload (or is there another way?)

RedReact:

All online applications are filled online.

Thank you very much for your response, but I have this stubborn form : family representative (IMM5713). It wouldn't allow me save the doc for upload. I just hope i am not doing something wrong. by the way, the form requires my hubby to sign that I am submitting his application. Could that be why??

johnpoko:
No I haven't traveled out before.

1. Complete and signed application form, family form, representative form.
10.Round flight itinerary and hotel bookings.
11. 2 passport photographs.

I am yet to submit mine o but I thought we weren't to sign the application form, did u download and sign instead of validate
