Thank you for this. I appreciate. KaptainAfrika: 1. Had it been this was his first visa interview, the VO would have factored in the stammering as a symptom of appearing for a US Interview for the first time i.e. he is nervous. But this is his fourth visa interview.
2. I know we all make mistakes, but making a mistake about how much you earn, is a red flag.
3. When asked why you are going to the US, this is an opportunity to clearly explain why for example, I will be attending a conference on X because it will go a long way in helping me achieve Y in my Z place of work or further my career profession in A.
4. The VO has implied that your husband used an agent to fill the form.
5. When he reapplies, he should use the "why were you rejected portion of his form to explain himself".
All the best. |

Before u rant and conclude about stuff ask questions first. I already tried to Google Dr "wf" and nothing came up. Is it now a crime to ask questions here. If u don't have anything positive to add to my question, keep it moving. chloe7: After she put Hospital name, doctors initials and prices, which more information again, can't you call the Hospital instead and get any more information you need, all you need to do is a Google search of the hospital |

The cost is still so high. I may have to change to maybe Atlanta. Thanks chinwe11: I had my first child in Raleigh north carolina and would be having the next there. It's much more costly than other places. I paid 2200 for doctors fee and 4800 as hospital fee for vaginally delivery. I also paid 1500 for epidural and 1550 for pediatrician who saw the baby that day. However when I got home I kept getting more bills in the mail...I would say I spent total of about 13k. I had my daughter at rex health care. Wake med gave me a higher estimate so couldn't even go there. I also had to pay 300usd for a 2 hour stay in nursery when my baby was crying and I wanted to rest. I thought it was free till I saw the bill. My labor was 24 hours and they were ready to take me in for ceasarian. They had told me the cs was 13k for the operation alone and then with other care everything would end up at 20k. See me crying lol. Na so i tell them say i want to tey and push one more time. Luckily my baby came. My sister inlaw lives there too so had to go. Just hold enough cash because if there is any complication the bills will just sky rocket. I am going again in march sha. They dont have any oackage per se theybwill just tell you that they give a percentage of 35percent discount and that delivery is between 4800 to 10000k for vd but could cost more. They wont lock down any package price. Feel free to pm me for more info emails or for the doctors I used. |

Wow thank you so much for your reply. 28k! That is crazy. dere5: North Carolina Na one chance o. I would advice you stay away from there o. It was this exact mistake of "that's where I have relations" my friend/sister did and ended up with a bill of about $28k in 2015,she is still paying it now via payment plan. The same arrangement she had in north Carolina would have cost her about $7k if she had gone to Houston or Elpaso,and she would have spent max additional 5k for both feeding & accommodation. So pls run as far as you can from NC,except you find a hospital that has a package deal and you lock it down in black & white(pen & paper) |

Hello house. I have been following this thread for a while now I'm pregnant I can join in finally! I'm a July mom and I'm in a bit of a fix. I have family members in North Carolina and I will most likely be having my baby there to save on accommodation costs cos the dollars hmm. I see El paso and Houston are the more popular places to go. But by any chance has anyone here gone to North Carolina for birth or knows someone that has. I'll like to know about how affordable it is and if possible doctors. Thank you for your responses. |
