PoliticsRe: Can Fela Durotoye Fix Nigeria? Watch For His 2019 Blueprint!!! by BBSweetheart: 10:02am On May 29, 2018
I also thought Fela was just a joker until I started following him closely, and now I can confidently say the story of Fela Durotoye and 2019 election will be like the story of how David defeated Goliath with a sling and 3 stones.

Your first booking should suffice. you can always extend your stay when you get there.

Also planning to leave around 20th of Jan and also stay at intown suite. Visa not yet issued, my interview is on 14th. Have u already booked the suite, if so we're u able to book for the number of weeks u intend staying or u booked for 31nights as in their portal?

What's ur take and when are u due?

@ BBSweetheart,
thanks for ur info, pls I want to ask the difference between employment letter and letter of introduction?
Its my pleasure. Kindly note that the list here is just a guide. However, the letter of introduction could add extra boost to your credibility, especially if it is a reputable coy cos it shows that you have their consent, but if you are unable to get one, your employment letter should be just fine.

Hello house,
i was referred to this house and i must confess that you guys are awesome.
i am in my first trimester and i wud like to have my baby in US. my husband wants us to apply for visa now (we havent travelled abroad) cos he feels i might not get the visa if there is baby bump and that i should state that i am going for vacation which i am not to comfy with it. i suggested tourism and medical but he said no.

2: we both work and we havent saved more than 500k and i was wondering if our bank account is very much important as we intend to attach our payslips?

should we apply now or wait till febuary or march 2016?

Please i need answers ooo.
Its a good thing if you apply for your Visa early enough. your account details and payslips will suffice, however, it is the transactions record in terms of cash flow that matters at the point of visa application. your payslip would already give an idea of your income. You need to tell the truth, they will still find out at the POE. All the success stories here are based on the truth. Birthing your child in the US is not illegal.

Several questions have already been answered in previous thread and i have also benefited from scanning through 1,2 and 3, but to make it easiers for you and others, here is a list of documents you need for your visa application.

1 International passport
2 Hospital Email Correspondence
3 Visa Receipt
4 Appointment confirmation
5 DS160 Confirmation Page
6 Marriage Certificate
7 Two 5cm x5cm white background passport
8 Newspaper Change of Name
9 Change of name affidavit from court
10 Wedding Pictures
11 Hotel Reservation Confirmation
12 Letter of Consent/sponsorship from hubby
13 Hubby's 8 months account statements
14 Hubby's Employment and promotion letter
15 Hubby's international passport
16 Your 8 months account statement
17 Your employment letter
18 Evidence of pregnancy from hospital in Nigeria
19 Budget spreadsheet
20 Letter of introduction from your office

Cheers

@ Nogen please advise thanks
Hello everyone please I would like to know if anyone has recently used Doctoresparati recently as thats what im using at the moment, I have paid abouthalf of the hospital fees about $2700 dollars, rest would be paid in cash upon arrival, can anyone with knowledge of them tell me of their experiences and all. Plus does anyone know of any cheap and affordable accommodation which is close to the hospital, I plan on using palmas and Desol Healthcare. P.S im coming with my mother and daughter.

2. Im moving back to Nigeria from UK after living in the uk for six years, im due in february 2016 by Gods grace, would have waited to have my baby but home office has made things so difficult so hubstar and I decided to move back home, now my pregnancy is already classed as high risk as a result of excess amniotic fluid from my first pregnancy and also cos of my weight , i have my pregnancy notes from the uk to prove that. I have read in past forums about proving ties to nigeria but in my case what do i do, hubby and my father are willing to sponsor my trip, i was a stay at home mum in the uk once i had my daughter in 2014 after my mba but my husband was working , i dont know what else i need to prove as husband has a land he acquired in nigeria in both our names , we also have our own house in our name, i am taking our daughter with us as hubby has to sort things in terms of job and all out before the arrival of this baby. My sincere reason for having this baby in the us is i have never experienced naija healthcare in terms of pregnancy and the stories i have heard too scary and 2. my first baby was 4.2kg and i had vaginal delivery o my midwife and gp told me i could do it and they encouraged me, in naija na CS straight as i heard so i really need this to work out and oh to be sincere the passport of course lol. I have already set an interview date for myself my mother and my daughter. My mother has travelled twice to the us but I and my daughter,haven't. Sorry for the long story but I rili need to explain my situation in full so you all understand what im working with. Thanks
@ Olivia, I have read several post on previous thread about how people were refused Visa because they used Doctoresparati's letter. The VO claims they are just middle men not doctors. others have advised that you use a letter from another doctor/hospital even if you dont intend to use them or ask Doctor Espariti to provide you with a letter from Del so (The Delivery Hospital). Someone mentioned they now provide that at an extra payment of $100.

PropertiesRe: Land Purchase Advise by BBSweetheart: 5:54pm On Nov 25, 2015
ozomagala:
I have a very tight budget, but I need to buy a land in Lagos.

I have been taken to Ibeju Lekki axis three times and shown lands between 1.5 and 2M. I cannot see myself moving to that area to stay - I work on the Mainland. I can purchase any of these now but that location.......

I can raise my budget to 3M by early 2016 and get something closer. I have heard that some land owners tend to sell their properties at reduced cost at emergencies undecided :PP

What do the gurus advise?
