I try to keep quiet these dayts cos I tend to very strong abt my opinion when folks know the truth YET refuse it and YET post it.
The other poster knew about the thread yet lied. Same with thisperson. Thank God somebody just gisted how his visa was revoked. People lie, risk deportation and worst for me is the making It harder for honest applicants in future. Lies like these make the change of intent worthless at poe.hm!
it's hard to keep quiet when it comes to things like this...
I read her post over and over... I just cldnt believe what I was reading..... You'll wonder why cbp treat us with disrespect or hold a pregnant woman for hours without considering her condition....

Morg all..
I am new here..
My elder sis introduced me 2 dis forum few wks ago & I v learnt alot. I v read almost all d pages in part 1,2&3. I feel so blessed to b here. And I hail all d lovely mama's & papa's in d house. U guys r 2 much
I was frustrated & decided to engage my self in prayers, lol, am not a prayer warrior oo. Prayer was d 1st tin dat came 2 my mind. I prayed althru while I was outside waitin 4 dem
U sound like being a prayer warrior is a bad thing... undecided

VO: asked if I v any reason to go to d hospital , or If I v prepared any medical plans.
Me: I said no

VO: He said if I eventually go to d hospital I wnt b attended to, dat I will b turned back.
Let's hope with this statement made by d vo he didn't type something that wldnt favor you at d POE when u go For d delivery.

Me: Ok.
Unfortunately, we cldnt travel on d 24th of Nov due to my hubby's tight working schedule. So we v decided that I Shld wait & v d baby in US.
My ques is:

1. Has any1 given birth in indianapolis, cost & all so I can compare wit Elpaso.
2. How many March Mama's do we v in d house intending on birthing in Elpaso.
Pls let's hook up.
Luv u all..
Honestly I thought ur question will b change of intent and stuffs related to it. You shld b worried about the statement that vo made.

YOU DENIED YOU WERE TRAVELLING FOR MEDICAL PURPOSE....
And the VO further made that statement... SORT OUT THE LIE YOU TOLD THE VO.. Make dem no bounce u from poe.
Your change of intent shld b very constructive... Cos those cbp officials hate when u lie... So it's not jus about writing a flimsy change of intent. In ur case u lied.

For someone who has read part 1-3 hmmmmmmmmm

@Firstymum am loving your mood this morning.laughing so hard at some of your response grin grin grin
@oradew why did you wait to go to the embassy to get your baby passport,in my opinion that was an unnecessary risk you took but Firstymum has answered your questions basically.
Have a blessed day everyone.
it's breastfeeding hormones... Lol

I agree... The risk was really unnecessary ...

Lack of information tho

Hello,

Two years back Myself & My Wife have been granted Multiple B2 Visa with 5 Year validity , we had been to US, she had Baby Birth in US
I visited the consulate after a while in order to get some documents ready for my Baby in order to get the US Passport
Outta curiosity what documents did u need to get the baby's passport?

when I was there, the Officer has figured out that the reason behind being in US wasn't for pleasure, and it was for my wife to give a birth in US so our baby gets US Citizenship, hence he told me that "we believe that you were not honest your intention to visit US" and your Visa will be revoked, with a red pen he has written "REVOKED" on my Visa.
awwwww sorry about that.

I have couple of questions in this regard:

1. Is it possible for me to get a Visa to US in the future for pleasure?
I don't see why not. You might have to do some explaining

2. Is it possible for me to get a Visa to US in the future for Business?
Yes it's not a ban...

3. If I have been selected in the DV Green Card Lottery, will this case effect my chance to get an immigrant visa?
It shldnt.. But mehn I'm not sure how their lottery tingy works.

4. Will my wife's Visa be revoked as well?
Hmmmm nope... But it depends if she was flagged or something.

5. What will be the situation if my Wife travel again to US for another Childbirth?
She may b lucky and she won't b quizzed. But she shld hold her receipts.
It's 50 50 she might meet a hormonal person at d poe and wld start asking why she lied or didn't inform d embassy.

I stand corrected

Good evening all. I must confess I got a lot of information on this forum because I never had any info about this topic despite the fact that birthubg in the state is my dream. But I realised that the trend in the choice of hospitals and cities have changed over the years; 2011 to 2015. Moreso, from this forum I realised I suppose to have started the whole process before now. All I have is a Virgin naija passport, though I was supposed to go to Dubai last month but couldn't make it because hubby's visa wasn't ready till my leave days got exhausted. We only have tickets that we can amend to go if we have the time
Now, my questions.
I don't mind if I can have any aspiring mum that will be due in May so we can plan together, my email is azeezatsule@yahoo.ca
I always wonder how this works.... Seriously
Considering you haven't even applied for visa or made up ur mind about Hospital

I also need to know the hosp, doc, poe, in trend now. Cos at first I thought the El paso/doctoesparati was ok, but in the later post am seeing oakbend and others. Pls asist me with updated info.
Now this is a first... I don't even know how to reply this really... It's an interesting question. Plus u have been going through the thread you shld have concluded this by now.... At least almost

And now I need to start to apply for visa itself, how do I go about that please. You can asist me with sharing the link here. Thanks so much
We shld post d link for visa application? Wow
Google is our friend darling... Use d search button.

To think I was so calm during that ordeal is unbelievable...All I can say is that God was with me, coz she kept repeating I will cancel your visa, but I was very calm and I spoke softly and clearly looking straight into her eyes, and i saw that look in her eyes like "won't you beg me"? You can't change their minds, you can only try to convince them and pray to God so begging was not something I even thought of

Thanks again for the reply!

The bank statement has been inconsistent for some months now. I have a project that i am doing and its zeros my balance. With this new development, i would stop the project and concentrate on funding the account appropriately. I can start that this month till March/April we intend applying. But that would only be a solid 4-5 months statement. Confused!

Reason for Wife's visa first:

Since i have been refused based on my family and siblings being in the US and no strong ties to Nigeria, i want my wife to apply first, then i go after she has been given.

Thanks yet again!
Ok cool... Build the account well.... Avoid funds that can't be explained or will raise an eyebrow.

It can just b because u r busy with work like I said. Prep ur wifey very well o

I intend for my wife to apply first. If she is asked why i am not with her or why i am not applying for a visa, what is the best response to the possible question?


Thanks
6 months for the bank statement.
What's the truth to ur question? The common answer to that question is "indispensable because of work"
