Some people are so lucky with IQAS my school in UK sent them my master's transcript since 3rd April & I haven't even got an email to say my file is in line for processing faxed them last week & they said they're experiencing heavy workload. Na wa o!

Hi,
Did you have to call your school in the UK for them to send the transcripts and did you have to pay?
We are using WES but I just want to get the general idea especially for those with UK qualifications. .
We've sent the certificates but haven't contacted the schools as I was assuming they'll send an email to the school.

Happy Mother's Day...

Nah wa o! This thread! Nah real wa!

nefertitiram:

Now I am confused oh. With this subsidising thing. My hospital says delivery alone is 13k but if u are paying cash it's 8k for cash paying. Does that count as subsidised? They won't allow me pay more cos the bill they give is the 8k. Is it an issue?

You're good to go.... there's a discount because you're self pay and you're paying cash ( not using insurance like the average American). Just make sure you collect the receipts and zero balance for visa renewal/ point of exit/ entry.
Please don't be confused.

Amen! I have decided to have my baby in Nigeria and apply for a visiting Visa later, so many regrets in my head sha, I should have asked more questions, I would ve refused the offer from day one, I was only being careful with my inlaws. The experience in her house is story for another day. My husband wants us to sue her or call family meeting for her to refund the money, but that won't give me the visa, so I told him to leave her to God.

If you're not due soon please try Canada.... At least you'll know you tried sha.

nefertitiram:
Fa fa fa foul!


All the mamas who have returned fr missionary journey, who got 1yr as visa duration for their baby? Is it not usually 2years?

All these idio.t journalists peddling trash up and down. They will soon meet their Waterloo

You can't say ALL. My son received a 3 months visa on his US passport.

chloe7:
Bbaby84 Buy dollar, fund dollar account and use the card to pay, I suspect you're paying for above 6 months

I'm actually paying for 6 months and I've used two foreign credit cards, and two foreign debit cards. It keeps saying unsuccessful. I don't have a domiciliary account.

justwise:
Yes somebody outside the country can pay for you or you get dollar account and make the payment yourself.

Recently people have discussed this in this thread last month you can read back for answers

All my cards have been declined. Foreign and local

Please I need help @just wise @nerfetitiram etc please how did you pay for your UK application online. All my cards have been rejected including all local and foreign cards. How have you paid recently?

hopefulme:
Haha..Yes oo daughter is 2 soon. How time flies. Hope you did not forget to renew yourB2 as our pretty angel will be 2 soon.

Have a great day.

Forget sha lol. Visa already renewed as we went to the USA and Canada for summer. My B1/B2 is valid till 2018.

How are you and your family?
Take care.

IyawoToBe:
Hi bbaby84, your previous passport expired so soon? Thought it's valid for 5years

It's 5 years already lol. It's for my son(he turned 5 in Oct)not my daughter(who is just about to turn 2). You're probably mixing up the time line.

How are you and your LO or LOs?

Have a lovely week.

shawlar:
I have actually made a correction on my sons passport at the US embassy in Lagos... that was like 3months ago. Its not a big deal. You'll have to make an appointment at the American Citizens section of their site. Print the appointment page and download & fill the required form. Stroll up to the gate at your scheduled time (dont go and queue up with visa people ooo ) and you'll be ushered in and attended to. I doubt if they'll request for the receipts although I remember them asking one parent for progressive pictures of his daughter - maybe she looked totally different from the pic in her passport and the consular officer wanted to make sure she was d same person.

Thank you... We already renewed and it was no big deal like you said. We were also told to come with progression pictures as he was just 6 weeks when he got the first one. We should get it in 2 weeks time. Thank you for responding.

Happy holidays!

Congratulations to all the new moms and expectant moms. .. haven't been here in a while... @firstymom how far? @Nerf what's up?
Big ups to those about to go on their journey, this dollar is not smiling at all...

Meanwhile, has anyone renewed their child's/ children's US passport in Lagos. ( I intend to take receipts with me just in case). Please tell me about your experience.


Compliments of the season.

[quote author=mumzt post=48974002][/quote]Yes there's Shop rite in America. I know NJ has quite a few shoprite stores. I don't know what state funtolash is in though.

funtolash:
My dear the benefit of having a family here is priceless. Free food, free accommodation, free ride plus a ready help to handle my troublesome toddler. Please I want to find out if it's ok for me to use coupons here. Does it constitute using of tax payers benefit? My host said they got lots of coupons that I can use to get some discounts off stuffs when I go shopping. Please experts on the house kindly advice before I got chop awoof wey go run my belle later.

Coupon yourself away. Also print some on retailmenot.com
Excellent savings.... Dollar is not smiling.

funtolash:
Unfortunately I didn't notice whether there was any "x" on my own print out receipt. But what I noticed for sure was that:
1. I was the only pregnant woman on the queue (and also on the flight from Lagos to JFK). To be honest for whatever weird reason, i seriously prayed that I shld be the only preggy one there at the time of my entry.
2. It was a Sunday morning when I got in (around 9:30am) so airport was relatively light (not like I know what it's like during the week, but I can almost bet it will be a lot busier. This is for the discerning mind.

Not that am saying the above have anything direct to do with how my poe experience went but it might have contributed to it.

I still can't get over the part of you leaving your suitcases..... lmao. You must have been very excited!
For your shopping, just go to Jersey Gardens (Burlington coat factory( Baby Depot) first before going around.
Thank me later .
Congratulations and all the best!

Just to share. ..
On my way back from Toronto to NY, I was asked why my kids were born in the US and if I paid. To be honest I was in a hurry but I had put the receipts in one of the handluggages so I just handed them to him as I was about to miss my flight.
Just a gentle reminder to always hold your receipts.

thebaft:
Just to let you know. My relation who applied for a visitor visa online on 26 April 2016 received an original passport request today 17 August 2016. Processing time was 113 days. I guess you can use that as a measure to know when your passport request might be sent. It might even be sooner. Just be optimistic.

Lmao... that one grey hair would have grown. Na wa.

Popri:

You're an angel! I know the UK one is pretty straight forward but I have no clue about the US and Canada one.
Thank you so much! God bless

Mistygal4:
Hello House,

Sorry for any typo.

OMG! Congratulations! Me I'm interested in how you got visa for your Nanny please.

Congrats once again.

I remember how some people descended on me when I raised the warning flag against Dr. F. It took my friend coming to this forum to narrate her horrible ordeal in his hands before some started believing.

Anyway, I stopped talking. Whatever rocks one's boat! An elderly aunt of mine said something : ' I don't understand why one would cross the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans of this World to the USA just to use a Nigerian doctor, why not use one here?" That was her statement after she heard of my friend's experience in the hands of Dr. F.

I don't totally agree with her but DR.F makes her statement seems right! Do your research thoroughly before you spend on hospitals or doctors who are not worth it!

I don't understand too.... Parapo things.. smh

Hotstepper:
I am toronto. U r about 35 mins away from me . U Don born?
