Good job so far. As rightly said, your funding source is a major determinant of the additional documents you need. Looks like your sponsoring yourself, so let me break it down for you.
If you're sponsoring yourself and employed, some additional docs include:
- Employment letter
- Pay slips
- If possible, get a letter of promotional offer to prove that you'd be promoted when you're done and back in Nigeria
- Letter of study leave
- etc

Self-sponsor and self-employed or own a business:
- CAC doc
- Business Bank Account statement
- Some transaction receipts of service offered to clients
- Website if you have one
- Payroll, if you have employees
- etc
- In your SOP, discuss the potential impact of the course on your business.

I applied for my study permit as a self-sponsored and business owner. The main idea is to think of what the visa officer would want to see to clear all doubts about your source of funds.
It is more important to show that your first-year expenses are covered and if this were last year, I would have advised you to forget the second year. However, given the recent happenings and policy modifications, I would agree that you should get a co-sponsor or something to prove that you can cover second-year expenses.
That's all and your SOP must also be very detailed. Leave nothing to chance and follow up with prayers.

please was it a year programe?
was it just business documents you provided?
when filling work experience, what did you provide?

i want to apply this month end as a self sponsored business person.

please throw more light on the process, thank you

Thanks Hawttattoo. I think i'll do it myself by getting a visa via Atlanta. I start today and will send it out probably tomorrow. Which doctor delivered your baby? The lactation specialist there, the tall lady only sees moms that are doing exclusive breastfeeding. She's a Port Harcourt person and we quickly identified with each other.
She did well to drop a manual Medela breast pump which was helpful and got my wife started. The others came freely lovely drinks from the pantry room, food, baby blankets, similac et al. For moms using Dr. Morgan you can ask the nurses if you are entitled to these little perks.

P.S I know it's been said here before but ensure you let your pediatrician or whoever will be performing your child's circumcision what you want. Tell them naija style and show them a pencil sketch of what you want if you think it will help them else you may end up doing it again.

Hi Guys,

My wife gave birth to our Son at Houston NorthWest Medical Center almost 2 weeks ago. So thankful to everyone here that has helped with information one way or the other. Special thanks to @oresmum and @domrita. God bless you all.

Our Doctor, Glenn Morgan was great and did a wonderful Job. The nurses that tended to my wife were great, and overall I would say it's a hospital I would recommend to anyone. Freebies to get us started like a starter breast pump, belly waist band, similac, baby starter clothes, etc were given.

Currently we are 'free-er' what with tending to baby and trying to chase his documentation. And so far we have his BC and Passport but i'm having a hard time getting through to Tanko.

Can anyone here (maybe you have mentioned before and I missed it) offer an alternative to processing his Nigerian Visa or a better solution like a passport instead without travelling to New York?? Please any advice would be appreciated as we have limited time.

firsttymum:
Congratulations darling... I'm patiently waiting for the pediatricians fee

Popri:
Congratulations on your bundle of joy..4.45kg, wow..weldone!
You had a natural start of labour, so you were augmented not induced
Congrats once more

Phema:
Congrats Ma'am!

Hello all! My passport expires Dec,2015 and I want to book an appointment on Ds passport! Can I still proceed with the appt, and renew it later? Does it have any effect once visa is to be given? Pls advice me

LadyGuinivere:
Emmm! I cough well!
1. Ist congrats on top the barrow wen u de push (the pregnancy o! Before u tell me say u be ajebo and can't understand pidgin ) Nne! If u read a few pages, you'l see dates don scarce like boy pikin. Your husband has to make a hard choice, abandon his date (and possibly lose the fees) so he can apply with the 'itsy bitsy babies' or apply for them later.

2. IMO, you are going for childbirth now, it is logical for hubby to want to accompany you but not so for the kids so I do not think you should put them in the same application with hubby. I believe the VO may ask why do u need the kids at childbirth? Who will take care of them while you are at the hospital with oga witnessing the birth? Plenty plenty long thingz!
I suggest oga goes ist , then the lil ones apply after oga don get.
God bless !

What is the addiction of Nigerian women to telemondo? That's how my sister packaged the wrong owo idana for my father in law cos she was watching Mexican movie.

I helped my wife ordered like 10 from amazon at a cost of $3 to $10 each. She kept herself busy with them before I got to US. Make sure you select those that have English subtitle.

Nogen:
Why bother to carry all these from Nigeria when you can get them from an African store here in the States? Heard stock fish is even cheaper here than in Nigeria!

Enjoy your meal jare. At least, you can eat your naija food daily than weekly when you are at the kind mercy of your host.

Toks07:
Congratulation on good POE story. I pray mine too goes the same way. Pls what kind of food did you take because am kind of lost on what is allowed. Thank you.
