Okay. Thank you, I ll apply and pick november date for interview since my EDD is in feb 2019. What do you think?

Once you are denied, you have to wait 6 months. You can't reapply immediately anymore

Austine2020:
November is far, u need to apply earlier incase the outcome didnt favour u,then u will still have time to reapply again. So u better start early so far the Visa will still be 2years. So applying early wont do u any harm at all.

There's also a Disneyland in Paris. A schengen visa should fix that. Sorry for the denial

GreenArchitect:
I had a hunch that might have been what she was looking out for in my bank statement but it would be improper to come to a conclusion by relying solely on my personal bank statement.The Ghana trip was funded from the company account and I didn't see it fit to go to the interview with the company statement of account since the intended trip was going to be privately funded.Kindly send me a link to the Disneyland in Dubai let me see if I can get my wife to buy in.Thanks.

Thanks so much for your prompt response. That's the same option I see being feasible for her

OmoBendel24:

I will go with 2 if I were in this situation. Wait till you have a good reason to travel and use the unlocked MRV fee receipt number. It is valid for a year from date of purchase, and I believe you know that, but I'm just saying this for emphasis sake....

Good day all. A friend of mine tried expediting her appointment in Abuja but it got denied. Her doctor's appointment and date she indicated she was traveling in her DS 160 are in June. The date she booked before applying for expedition is August 5th while her EDD is July 16th. What can I advice her to do?

1. To go for the interview after she has had the baby with her current DS160 and explain to the VO? She applied for a B2 visa indicating Childbirth. Will it matter that she already had the baby?
2. To not attend and hope she gets to use her MRV after it is unlocked for no show?
3. To fill another DS160 removing all indication of childbirth? But the issue is, she would then not have a reason for applying

Please advice. Thank you

Abuja is July 30th today. Lagos was September 8th as at last week

Latifahed:
[Which dates are availabe so far please?]I applied for an expedited interview. It was denied. Reason being pregnancy isnt a true emergency.
Except a miraculous earlier date pops up before this month ends......hmmmm.
I have been tracking both lagos and abuja. People are seriously travelling ooooo. No cancellation at all.
Please if anyone comes across an earlier date, kindly notify us. Even if na for middle of the night. Thank u

Tuesday was a holiday

lionhead6969:
Good day all,
I applied for B1 B2 visa, did interview on Monday but up till now, I have not gotten mail that my passport is ready for collection. Does it sometimes extend more than the usual 3 working days?

Abuja is July 5th

Tabsy:
Hello everyone. Please who has recently scheduled an interview. What's the present date for both Lagos and Abuja...

Thank you.

Katete:
Good day all, I want to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread, your wonderful tips and points are highly appreciated. I went for my Visa interview on Wednesday and I was given a visa, the V.O did not even check any of my documents, he just approved �. Will type a transcript later

Congratulations!!!

Please could you send to me as well? All my efforts to get through to Shelly has been in vain

[quote author=mummymos post=66990856][/quote]

That's for the doctor. There's no way to reach the hospital financial counsellor

customised87:




If you read the sent scanned papers well, u ll see where it's written that you should reply them with a date you ll want for your first appointment. When you reply them, they ll send back a letter showing that you have an appointment with them on the said date

I'm having same issues. Emails bounce back and they keep transfering to her voicemail! I guess I'll make do with what has been sent already since the hospital website doesn't open here

Mamaiyanu:
Hello dear NLanders, please can anyone help?

Been trying to get a hospital quote for HNMC for the last two weeks to no avail. I called Dr Xydas office and they sent me some attachments that look like they were scanned by a child! I can see the info I need but I need something that looks decent and I can present at embassy/poe.

I called Dr Morgan's office and they asked me to call the hospital for the quote. I have called about 5 times during US working hours and when they transfer me to the financial counsellor, it's her voicemail I always get.

I got her email shelly.braham@coniferhealth.com but all the mails I have sent just bounce back.

I would appreciate if anyone here has a decent quote and can send to me, or has an alternate way I can reach the hospital to get the quote myself.

Thanks

Violetdaisy:
My husband's passport would expire September 17 and he intends traveling from July to September 8 for vacation.Would that be a problem?He has a valid visa
Thanks

No problems at all

I'm guessing the fact that you and DH applied together; from the statement in bold

sazlex:

VO: Turns to ME, will you be travelling with her.
DH: Yes, to witness child birth.
VO: How long will you stay?
DH: 2weeks.
VO: Have you traveled before.
DW: No, although we were planning to travel to mark our 5th wedding anniversary in May but plans changed when we became pregnant.
VO: Am sorry you are not qualified for visa.
DW: But why?
VO: We are ensuring that only US citizens are in the US at this time and that those travelling have strong tiles to return

lolaemerald123:

Hello ma'am, pls do u pay dr Dama for Doctor appointment letter that u showed at ur interviews

Most of the doctors require payment for appointment letter

Eby123:
I went for my Visa interview today. Got there 8:35am fot my 9: 15am interview. The queue was so long. I had to use the bathroom and After standing for more than an hour. Didn't recognise the VO from November last year when i and DH applied for a vacation. This time i applied for a medical visa

VO: how do u intend to sponsor ùr trip?
Me: wasn't thinking again and said... I have my bank statements and my husband will be sponsoring me
Vo: ok. I'm sorry blah blah...... the letter will explain better
Me: ok... feeling so sad

So sorry. Was this Abuja or Lagos?

antozek:
Please am new to this platform,have been reading and taking notes,but i need more clarifications and advices.

I intend to apply for a medical visa to have my baby is California, but haven't gotten an invite, can i apply without an invitation letter? Also my DH has a British passport,shld I mention this at the interview,and he's sponsoring the trip,how much should be in his account to satisfy the VO.

Pls need your honey advice

You don't need an invitation letter. You only need to contact a doctor and/or a hospital, get your appointment letter and go on for the interview with your printed doctor's corespondence

decimator:

Please, can you explain the one month stamp in. Will the baby be required to be returned to US at expiry. Confused. Thanks

After baby is stamped in, you have to process the baby's Nigerian passport within the stipulated one month

dere5:


It's normal for you to get B1/B2,even though you applied for B1.
I don't think changing your accommodation arrangements is such a big deal for you to bother yourself about it,it can easily be explained away,plans do change now and then. That your whole family is coming to stay with your brother in-law is not their business,the important thing is that your brother in-law is there legally and that he agrees to accommodate all of you.

Do you think she would need an invitation letter from her brother-in-law to support this?

Ojugunrege:
Now, my BIL who is a permanent resident is offering us accommodation in his house (he's married with children). I hope that will not be a problem at the POE? I hope they will not say I lied at the interview & also that we are coming to crowd his space/be a burden to him and his family?

bizzle6:




I called Shelley the financial counsellor of HNWMC, she insisted that they don't give itemized billing for self paying patients. I explained its for visa renewal she said its the hospitals policy. really don't know what to do now.

Oh wow. And I'm set to use them myself..I've even gotten my Doctor's appointment. Maybe I'll just use Oakbend

Omodadi2:
I was interviewed again today(3rd time)

VO: You brought them but they are not making sense. I also said sorry, is it the account statements or the doctors correspondence and I feel you could ask a question or two if there's something not clear to you. ? VO kept mute and later said that everythingis there on paper, you don't need to be explained anything.

I wanted to talk again then she said she's sorry, she may not be able to give me any more information. Have a nice day!

Only God knows the criteria for getting US visa again now cos I don't get it anymore. My visa expires in January, many people told me to use it before expiry and I will be stamped. But because I like following due process, I said NO that I'll renew my visa, now see my life. I have spent up to 500k applying and travelling for visa interviews. The same thing I got in 2016 by just saying the truth this way, and even now my income has increased and the claim is I am not eligible. It is well!

God help us all. I'm really sorry you experienced this. Her reason is bollocks!

abisoyed:
Good morning mamas in the house. Can someone or people who went through Houston POE between January and now share their experiences. Kindly help a sister out as I am in a panic mode, I bought a BA ticket to Houston for April and my family and friends have been scaring with different tales of being sent back, even the person I rented an apartment from is not recommending I come in through Houston and my ticket is non-refundable. What do you all think? Thank you as I await your response.

Search for POE Houston in the search bar and select travel. You'd find so many
