Lolzzzz. U no go kill person. Oya answer my questions I beg.
Do I need to shw medical report at the POE?
The medical report I have now is been dated since June, do I need to get my doctor update it to date of travel or close?
Na 20k for the report. Updating it means me paying another dough.
I don search d whole part one and two. I no see answer.
thks
Na wa o... 20k ? Chai .... If it's for POE what u have is ok I guess ... But for airline fit to fly ... Someone suggested port health tingy which is a perfect idea ...
modath:
STANBIC do sell @ 208 at their Idejo VI Hq but I can only confirm that one branch, though someone posted in the biz forum that they sell in about 4 other branches but they are all in VI lagos..
@akindolz bought her pta from stanbic.
Oh really great then ... But 208 is not a smiling something... In Portharcourt then tell me NO

4k PTA (I assume u know what that is) den buy the rest via black market or if u don't wanna, u use ur naira card there and pay for stuffs ... Alternatively [s]if u have someone who is traveling but isn't interested in PTA u can use d person to get PTA [/s]

Looks like u ain't in Nigeria... Western union or use ur card jare

Hello NL, please I am new to this trend, I have been going through the pages, but maybe I haven't gotten to the right page, and Each time I want to throw my question to the house, the fear of been embarrassed won't let me, but I have summoned all my courage to ask now......
PLEASE I NEED AS MUCH HELP AS I CAN GET FOR GOD SAKE.
I am trusting God to have my baby in America, I am due around end of the year, I don't have a VISA yet, and I haven't apply yet for some reasons
1) I applied with my family for a course in February, and we were denied VISA, so I was advised to wait till 6 months (which will be in August) before I can reapply
2) I really don't have a place to stay, even though am hoping I could rent a small apartment
3) I would love to travel with my 1 year old son.

I know it might seem a little too late to be asking this questions now, but like I said earlier, am trusting on God's grace.

PLEASE I NEED ALL THE HELP AND INFORMATION I CAN GET BEFORE I APPLY.
Thanks
1. U obviously didn't read through the thread, mayb u are doing so...

I suggest u start afresh with a jotter and pen.. This will answer all ur questions and even questions u don't have.

2. I didn't see or get what ur question was..

3. For the accommodation( if that was a question) someone was answered a few pages away ( u see that u didn't read d thread)

Hello pep.

@Silverplum thank you for your response,one more thing. My friend paid the visa fee but in the receipt printed out by GTbank,the visa category was stated as Business/ Tourism as B1/B2,is it still the same thing with what she filled in the DS-160 as tourism/medical? Please quick response from everyone,thank you in anticipation.
