@Hotstepper, Thanks for this.

@all, What is the true cost for Visa on arrival in Nigeria? I called Nigeria Immigration Service in Abuja. I was told it's $160 per visa and that the approval letter/email costs nothing. But I've seen various visa amount qouted by others and some cost to the approval letter.

Can anyone kindly confirm the experience with visa on arrival at MMA?

OmoBendel24:
$190....

My wife is due around that time and i do have relatives in canada but zero contact and i have never been to canada before. So yeah that is an option that can be explored sharing accommodation. I will be going to USA end of new year month and may be i can go to canada to scout out there.

For a PR do you get instant healthcare for child delivery considering the fact that you may just be arriving? In which province can this be obtained?

Hotstepper:
are you sure alberta is instant?

Thespecialist:
Hello koolmum...
I deduce from your post that the reason you are going to Calgary is cos you get instant healthcare for free since you are PR...well just thought you should know that with your PR, you get free healthcare anywhere in Canada.

Hello Everyone;

I am also new in this topic, and i have read the full conversations 54 pages, really useful info, thanks to everyone that shares.
I am planning to come to Calgary on mid of January at my 34th week of pregnancy,
And hoping to find a doctor and hospital that is affordable, what i found out from this forum about calgary hospitals and fees as below so far.
But i wanted to check if anyone has more updated info, or had info about other hospitals or birth centers fees in Calgary.

Also i need info to find a rental studio furnished room, do you have any idea about the websites where i can look for such kind of accomodation?

Appreciate if you share your experiences, and knowledge.

Have a wonderful day to every mama out there.

@ peter lougheed hosp.
dr D igras kulach.
Baby : 1080
Me: 3900 per night
Dr: 1500
epidural I paid: 1250

Thespecialist:
For info on renting accommodation, search this website....www.airbnb.ca
Narrow your search to Calgary and to the postal code of the clinic and hospital you intend to use (to save you Uber charges).
Best of luck

deonu:
Hello Koolmum;

Ok glad that you have found a place to stay, and appreciate if you can inform us for all your experiences ahead.
Doctors, hospital fees, etc. And keep in touch if you need to share a place after january.
Hope you the best of luck and have your baby in a good health.

deonu:
Hello Koolmum;

I will arrive in Calgary also in mid of January with my mom and will stay about 2 months, we are looking places to stay during this time as well, so we may keep in contact if you still need someone to share a place in the mid of January.

Hello, thanks to everyone who keeps this thread alive,
My birthing experience in Canada. I got in canada through Toronto Pearson airport didn't spend much time at the point of entry because I entered at 28 weeks and I wasn't showing much.
I used dr nicollete caccia @$1500 at 30$ at each visit
She made me more tests at 120$
I used Humber river hospital at 2500$ and baby was 845$ I also took epidural which was 200$(was lucky with d doctor) I'm back in Nigeria by Gods grace collected my baby's passport and all
If u need any help I would be happy to help.

Hello @ urblackpearl. here's a breakdown of the bill I paid at bc. I travelled at 34weeks birthed at 38 weeks plus
1st visit with the family dr-160cad
subsequent visits/prenatals-75cad(had 4 visits)
drs fee-2000
hospital bills(cuts across all of b.c cos Fraser Health is in charge of health services in b.c)
3530 cad-maternity
1350 cad- natural delivery
1070 cad- newborn fee

the bill would have ended here but I got another bill of 1450 cad for routine medical tests they did for the baby (which I was told was free @ the hospital)

they took all my blood tests but was made to do strep b, and another one which cost 100 cad.

baby's pasport -107 cad for express (took 5days)

express mail(Canada post) to nig high commission in Ottawa from b.c-75 cad . very crappy service. didn't get the mail after 6 days & had to pick up d baby's E.T.C @ Canada post sorting ctr @Richmond after repeated calls.

E.T.C- 100cad

This is a rough estimate of the bill. been trying to upload the sheet containing the different charges from Fraser Health but it's not uploading...

I hope this helps you ......All the best in your endeavours
