kuzeh: Hi,
My passport expires May 2015 and my interview is this week. Do I require a new passport before travelling?

kuzeh: Hi people,

skimmeh1: even at that, she can not fly with that passport which the visa was approved in. The Airlines also stick to these principle as part of flight condition. So advice your sister to go get her passport re-issued.

Emblem: Hello,

I just sum up courage and went for the interview like that.

Emblem: Hello,

I made a mistake on my DS-160 form in which i later filled another one. For the past 3 days, I have been trying to update my profile with the new DS-160 code i just filled but it kept giving me error "Error occurred while loading a visualforce page". Please what can i do as my interview is tomorrow morning.

Attached is the screenshot of the error message.

Nita2013: Hi ashleybaker, I won't lie it was indeed a long flight from dubai-chicago about 14hrs 40mins (though we arrived Chicago earlier) but it was a comfortable flight because Emirates economy is d premium economy(a higher economy) of other airlines like BA. There was enough leg room so u could stretch ur legs very well. Also d crew members knew I was pregnant so they kept asking me if I was ok and kept filling my bottles with water (but toilet bcame my best friend-which was very good). U can ask for fruit as many times as u want (they will oblige u since u r pregnant). Pls do not drink .

lizcom25: Every pregnant woman have a choice to make for safety purpose. Why will you wait till 35/36 wks bfore flying? Whatever that will keep you till then is the choice you have made over safe journey and birthing

Shawbabe: Your health and baby's health comes FIRST!!! Anybody that tells you to push it to 35 or 36 weeks won't be there to make you comfortable during the long flights and layovers! So even if it is work, beg them that you have to leave early!! The ultimate is God's protection! But we have to do our part and keep it to 34 weeks max!

Shawbabe: Yea I saw email saying you are trying to contact me. But it didn't show the message.

My dear personally, I think you traveling at 35 weeks is pushing it. Like Bloggerina said, 34 weeks should be out MAXIMUM! Me I plan to leave in february, Like 30 Weeks so I can have a comfortable flight and rest well. I am still trying to decide between Sugarland, Tx or Phoenix. Reason being that in Texas, I can get around easily and cost of living is cheaper.

I plan to travel with my mum so we will have to rent a place in any of the cities we decide on. I am looking at all these places suggested on here. Crossland (for phoenix) and 1-bed apt in Houston, close to sugarland.

nefertitiram: Hi All,
I lost my babies, poor handling in ICU here in Nigeria, even at 7 months. Another reason why everybody needs to have their baby in the US! I pray no one experiences this kind of loss in Jesus Name,
I have managed to move on. Time to go back to the drawing board, sad loss after trying for a number of years.
I cannot question God.

Tvegas: You are welcome ma. I will advise you shouldnt fret over such trivials as the first headache of a VO is to establish your home ties and your ability to fund your trip, your itinerary in the US is low in order of priority. You should spend more time building "Your burden of proofs".

Tvegas: Incase you got your appointment letter from Doctoresparati or any other hospital that issue such, inform them to change your appointment date in the USA and send you an email effecting the change. Print same, Attach it to your appointment letter and go the embassy with it . If this route is not possible, explain your itinerary in the USA to the VO.

Tvegas: Go to the DS160 page, input your old DS160 code and retrieve submitted forms. Click on cancel old application . The old form submitted will appear,change all the necessary details and print the new confirmation page with the new code. You dont need to tamper with your appointment confirmation. Go to the embassy with the new DS160 confirmation page, the old DS160 confirmation page and the old appointment
confirmation initially booked. You should be fine.

tzetzefly: Then you have no option than to attend that interview and hope for an oversight from the CO.

tzetzefly: Yes, you need to state a date for travel ahead of your appointment to avoid refusal. Fill another DS-160.

tzetzefly: Your question is not explicit. Can you please rephrase it again.

Ibtisam24: Dear Moms who send me emails and details for an appointment at MIHS. I tried all ways and my best to get an appointment for you or at least 3 or 4 moms. They did not accept at all even I went to the nurse I told them my friends should book ticket and hotel only after getting an appointment with OB. They said sould be here physically. I am sorry but what to do.

Ibtisam24: @queentha I have an appointment with dr on 4th after I meet finically deparment 3 days back so if you want me try to get you an appointment with dr I will try and ask if possible. If yes will let them send you an email. If that is ok with you send me ur name birthdate email Id. I wish I can help

Nita2013: Hello all,
I m MIHS bound next month as well as some other Mommas.

The cheapest accommodation so far in phoenix is Crossland Economy Studio. U can book tru extended stay on +18003987829 and tell them u want the extended stay programme. With d extended stay programme u get to pay $1200 for 60 days but to get this u av to book for minimum of 60days. But I hear from 1st October it will be higher. Also in crossland u can book for. Two double bed room.

As regards d reviews about Crossland, it's very bad but bear in mind that these reviewers r whites so little tins get to them. We have pple here that have stayed there and also some members here are there presently and they all say the place is ok. Crossland to MIHS by cab is about 15mins drive and $20/$20 back which is total of $40. By bus to and fro is about $4 but a total of 2hrs travel time (1hr going and 1hr coming back). The Mommas there said they use bus for antenatal visits and use cab when anyone is in labour. D $4 bus ticket is an all day pass.

Also as regards Zazu Pannee that's a more tushed apartment from what I av been told but they av some strict rules. They regard infant as adult. If u are going for a one bedroom in Zazu and u r goin with let's say ur mum or hubby, that makes it two persons and d rule is its a maximum of 2persons to a one bedroom thus if LO is born, d baby would be regarded as an adult thus u wud av to upgrade to two bedroom. This I was toldd when I called them and also a mail was sent to me as regards that. The lady I spoke with said it's their fire service rule. U can also call to confirm this. Their rates is weigh more than crossland.

Also there is Extended stay East Oak which is close to crossland as regards rates but it's still more expensive than Crossland and they av single beds only but from d pics, d place is nice.

There is also the one at biltmore that Blesyn83 is presently staying and she has talked about which she sayss is very good as well.

There are some apartments like Monterra, Camelback Cove etc but pls don't be deceived by the rates u see online, I personally called and they r all unfurnished apartments.

I hope I av been able to pass a little info. God bless us all

lizcom25: @stepedie please could you give us the details of accommodation at elpaso closer to the hospital? I will appreciate.

Lamisatuati: @kuzeh am not sure it makes any difference but to be on the safe side fill for tourism/medical.
