W: To have my baby?
VO: Where are you going to in the US?

VO: Why Houston Texas?
W: *confused* wasn't sure if he meant why the US or why Texas and not any other states in the US.
W: it was based on a friend’s recommendation.
VO: looked up, (like, not convinced)
W: reads body language then says: for dual citizenship purposes and access to better medical health care.
VO: Where do you work?

VO: Have you traveled before?
W: No
VO: Has your husband traveled before?
W: Yes
VO: Can I see his passport?
W: Passes my passport to VO. I also have an intro letter from his coy, would you like to see it?

VO: Are you married?
W: Yes
VO: When?
W: xxxx. I have the marriage certificate here, would you like to see it?
VO: Yes, please
VO: passes a white paper and says pick up visa after three days.

Advice from my wife:
Be organized. Make sure all your documents are well arranged and you can easily reach them.
VO looked at the bank statement and focused on where there were bulk transfers but he didn’t pick it because he noticed those transfers were from my company. So, avoid bulk transfers.
And lastly, take the initiative, read body language and ask to show them documents that you think can help you.

Thanks everyone


Hello Cretaceous,

Can you please share budget sheet of Houston Medical Centre with me.

I have also contacted Precious Cedar Mother Care for the package.

Thank you.

VO: Can I see your correspondence, budget sheet and bank statement
hands them over, looked at the bank statement for a long while. Asked some questions about certain outflows and then passed the white paper.

I am grateful to all the gurus on this platform, cos before I eventually decided to do it myself, agents were saying the fact that i just finished masters might be used against me (probably that i want to go find a job in the US) and were suggesting all sorts of lies to tell. I give God all glory sha.
