What POE r u going through? I am thinking of using Virgin Atlantic to JFK then a connecting local flight to houston. Am leaving in 2weeks maximum. Cos am 33weeks by Monday. What POE is best. I hv all my documents and i stated child birth as travel reason (got visa days go). I intend to travel with about 10k and may even pay my hospital bills from here. Deciding a POE is my issue. Am houston bound kellylicious:
Is anybody having same problem as mine regarding flight booking? Wakanow said no airline will carry me if i am above 32 weeks. They said it is a new rule or so. I called airfrance and they also insisted on 32 weeks. Can anybody who recently flew at 33 weeks and above inform me the airline she used? |

DH: .......................
VO: what is your highest qualification?
DH:...........................
VO: turns to me and asks me to describe my job role and my highest qualification
Me:................
VO: what's your purpose of traveling?
DH: childbirth
VO: so how do u intend to afford it when yo have been married for a short time, have u been able to save?
DH: I had savings before marriage which was in a fixed deposit.
V.O: ok so have you contacted any doctor and do you have any idea what it would cost?
Me: Yes I did some research and I came across my doctor who has high ratings and I contacted him. Here is the correspondence indicating the cost as well.
VO: glances through and nods! Am glad you chose a good hospital.
VO: Do u have any relatives in US?
Me: No I don't.
V.O:where wld you be staying?
Me:I intend to use Soulcare concierge, I contacted them and I was sent a copy of their rates which I used to plan.
V.O:How long do u intend to stay?
Me: 8 weeks
V:O: I think that is too short cos baby may be too tender to fly. Contact your doctor and ensure you fly at the appropriate time with the baby.
V.O turns to D.H and jokingly asks if he wld be going with me or when the baby arrives.
DH: smiles and says he wld be there much later to welcome baby because of work.
V.O: ok that's great! Your visa wld be ready in 3working days.bla bla bla
Hope this helps some one..  |

Babatwi:
I guess so. Cant my business stand as a tie?
They advice you to apply alone so that your husband will act as your tie to home,that being said husband and wife have been known to apply together and were both given,so flow with your mind. |
