Hello all, after lots of contemplation at whether to share my experience or not to I have decided to share. I know lots of people will judge me, insult and criticise me but I have decided I don't care my major reason for sharing is for others to learn. Myself and dh had our first interview in September 23rd which was in lagos, I went there with so much faith and burden of proof , and ready for them cos of all the I have read here.
Us : Good morning Vo: no reply Vo: can I have your passport please, why are you going to US Us: vacation and childbirth Vo: how far gone are you madam Me: with a big smile I replied, im just 33weeks today Vo: no airline will allow u fly at 33weeks Us: delta airline and some other airline would allow me fly and moreover im travelling immediately Vo: sir where do u work Dh: blah blah Vo: how much do u earn Dh: blah blah Vo: I can see u use to work maam , where and what do you do there Me: blah blah blah Vo : have you both travelled outside the country before Us: no Vo: type type type type den she says unfortunately ........... Dh was so depress, we got into the car and he said let's pray and he thank God all thru I informed a friend and we were advice to reapply in abj asap and also someone told her my last interview won't be seen so abj vo wont know about my interview in lagos Then we started the process , travelled to abj had my interview on 30th of September , this time I went alone Vo: good morning, how are today Me: good morning im fine (this time I was not smiling I was practically nervous) Vo: why are you travelling Me: childbirth Vo: how far gone are you Me: my heart started beating fast den I made the greatest mistake ever I lied and I back dated with the mindset that she won't see my last interview Vo: your answer is so precise....started typing again den she looked at me and said ma how far gone are you Me : I answered again back dating Vo: you visited us last week and you said you were 33weeks gone and now you are saying this , so im going to ask you for the last time, how far gone are you Me: den I started shaking and still stick to my lies and she just looked at me and ask oda questions den reply with unfortunately
I was angry with myself, I shouldn't have lied, she gave me opportunity to say the truth but could not bring myself to it.
Then I decided I was not going to leave abj dt I will try again, my friend gave me the confident and told me to be open minded dt dey mght not give me but we shld just try , dh was worried cos of my state and the emotional trauma I was putting myself through but he later agree I go if not for any thing but to set my record straight and say the truth. Then I went for another interview in Oct 8 I was praying the same vo should interview so I can be apologetic and all but unfortunately she wasn't the one who did Vo: good morning can I have your passport Me: good morning Vo: why are you travelling Me: childbirth Vo: hmmmm is will be quiet easy , can I v ur doc correspondence Me: gave him Vo: how far gone are you madam Me 35weeks today Vo: do u think any airline would allow you fly Me: yes, I have contacted delta airline and they said they would allow fly but I should come with my doc fit to fly that they do not have restrictions for pregnant women Vo: okay.....I can see here you are a home maker who is sponsoring your trip Me: my husband Vo: where does he work Me: blah blah Vo : as what Me : blah blah Vo: how much does he earn Me : blah blah Vo : what is his rank there Me: not sure but I know he works as so so and so Vo : went through the doc document, type type and type, then he said the unfortunately again but this time he didn't give me the green paper and was wishing me well and my unborn baby. I left there sad after all money spent and stress, came back to lagos that same day hubby was super excited to see me and kept calling me strong woman that I could face them 3times and still get rejected that after that first rejection for him he is done . Waiting patiently to have my baby here in naija though painful but what more can I do than to thank God for life nd gud health |

[quote author=iolite88 post=34135739]I don't think you not having a job is a problem, if you are applying for birthing purposes just ensure your husband's statement and your own can cover all your cost. If you are asked about work I don't think there is a crime if you stopped working because of your pregnancy rather than you were let go. As for your name if you have an official change of name thy will ask you what you new legal name is. This happened to me when hubby and I applied. The name on my passport was still my maiden name they collected my husband's passport for his visa that day and gave me 5days to go and change my passport to my new legal name which can only be done in Immigration office Abuja. Also a couple before us were asked why they came from Lagos to do visa application in Abuja and from all indications the guy refused them saying they should reapply in Lagos. So you need to prepare an answer for that. Thank u so much, that means I will still need to do change of name on my passport and either stick to lagos or tnk of wt to say to them in abj embassy |

Good evening all, thank u so much for sharing all ur experience cos it has really help sumone like me, I have been reading rghtt from 1st page and I think its time to join inorder to ask few questions. I willbe aapplying for visa for the first time with my hubby dis week nd I v bin able to get letter of confirmation from Dr Fagbohun, but my fear is I just lost my job 2weeks ago due to management complaining about overhead so presently im out of work but my hubby works in a bank so my fear is hope my been outof job won't affect anything and also this is our first time of applying for anything called visa . Please I need more advice cos I know im suppose to go with marriage cert, affidavit of chnge of name, newspaper publication (cos I have my maiden name on my passport), letter from doc FAGBOHUN, hospital and accommodation, budget tables , and statement of account. Please sir and ma wt else do we need cos we are planning to fill the form dis friday applying straight to abuja embassy cos I read it here they are much more considerate than lagos, thank you all so much as u reply.. |
