@shawbabe, thanks a lot, the N5m is from me her hubby, I run a business in naija and I run a business in the uk as well. Her spouse visa is a biometric card and not a visa stamp on the passport so she has just one new naija passport without any visa on it. (we just filed for a missing passport and got a new one at the passport office)

you didn't need to get a new passport, the VO decides to grant or deny you visa before asking for your passport, LOL.. you don't even need to carry money and put in her account, you should have just given her your statement. showing that she has a UK visa ( strong one at that) should boost her chance during the application phase ( or would you say she hasn't traveled to the UK). Hope immigration wont cancel that passport with the spouse visa (since its a card and you don't need the passport itself) why cancel it. don't complicate things, my 2 cents.

Thanks Shawbabe and Pattyreal; I just want the application to be as simple as possible without any complicated stories.
She can use my bank statement and I've documentation to proof the source of the money from my business both in UK.
If she uses my bank statement does that mean there will be no money in her account?

First time i got a US visa, i didnt have up to 500k ( if e reach sef) in my account, and i was granted 2 years multiple entry, dem no even ask me for my statement, 5M would raise red flags for a student/teacher, if its yours then just give her a statement and letter of sponsorship. please don't say she is a house wife, being a teacher in dubai is a good tie to her country of residence.

Why are you making your case difficult and over analysing this situation? People can give birth wherever they want. Recently some americans have started obtaining canadian passport to ward of the threat from terrorist whenever they visit the middle east.

LMAO!!!!! Tvegas, you cracked me up big time, "THE QUEST FOR THE BLUE PALI" grin

@ PrinceAdeAde,

Countdown to PrinceAdeAde's interview tomorrow. You shall testify IJN. The God that did it for BJ2012golf and other nairalanders will do it for your family IJN. Amen.

There was a guy that asked how he could get a closer visa appointment for his wife. You just need to monitor available dates 24/7 on the booking website, you will definitely find a closer and more suitable date. Anyone that has been refused in the last six months is not eligible for expedited appointment.

Regards,

It's just grace of God when it comes to this officers at houston. I renewed my VISA before I came in for this baby but I was delayed at Houston because my hubby said No when they asked if I was pregnant in 2012 when we went for interview to get the VISA for my first baby. I had all my proof of payment for her delivery but they still had issue with the fact that we didn't say the trust about bin pregnant during the interview.
But I know that change of intent later works, cos my friend that just left did not declare she was pregnant during her interview. She did the change of intent letter tin n convince them at POE that she was not planning to come n have the baby when she did her interview. It's just grace of God. Just pray.

Wow. Congrats o. How many weeks gone are you abeg? And what's the limit for pregger women to fly with Arik? And why did you cancel your el paso plan? Did you get a cheaper package in Newyork?

My first scan said Feb 2 while my second scan said 14th January. So you can guess Lol.... I read from Arik ' s website that their max is 33 weeks but when I got there they told me their max is 30 wks. They accept 32 wks max if you are on a one way journey, that is, if you are returning to your home country or country of residence at that age. Hubby feels am too far gone to be travelling up and down. Besides I have friends here unlike elpaso. Cost of flight to and from elpaso and accommodation can be added to d hosp bill here

Am sure you are the lady in flowered dress, I almost asked you outside if you were on nairaland, lol. Heard the crew talking about you, they didn't buy your gestation age but had no choice, lol. The crew were nice to me sha, kept asking if I was okay, wanted anything, should call them immediately if I have any pain or cramps. That the head crew has experience in delivery babies etc. I just laughed and enjoyed the attention. I think they are just scared of carrying pregnant women after the experience they had and had to divert to Madrid.
That lady you met at the counter is my friend and she explained everything to me that they will only accept fit to fly from Port Health. Flew Arik twice to London during this pregnancy and we got talking the second time and I think she's pregnant too, lol.

Its me alright, on flowered dress. Yeah. She is preggie too. They are scared becos of that experience. They said they had to change their route to Spain so the woman could deliver her baby. I dint enjoy d flight at all. Won't do Arik next time. You dey try.

Hello dear,pls I sent you a PM,i will appreciate your response. Thanks


uote author=bloggerina post=28129667]Hello again,
Dr Risq attended to me for 2 days in postpartum when my doctor was off duty. He seemed nice sha very elderly, he reminded me of my dad who was also a doctor.
WHMC is a very nice hospital tho, single occupancy rooms for you so you have your privacy. My room in labour & delivery fine for my eyes so the, I told the nurses I wanted to leave the room because I was afraid they would bill me more. The nurses that attended to me that night were nigerians, they just laughed at my "bushness". Lol anyway they have good staff that's what am trying to say.

The prices they gave you are already discounted for self-pay but you will get a discount for pathology(labs) and ultrasound if you ask. If you don't ask, they will chop your money and clean mouth. Epidurl is $1200 if u don't ask for discount, the bill will be almost $4k.

I wish you safe delivery mama.
Cheers

A friend told me they are one of the cheapest but I purchased the ticket on Sunday afternoon b4 leaving lagos after United didn't confirm the one I paid for two weeks ago. Sure it will be cheaper if you buy it on time. Please use their website o.
Ok. One last question please... Did you have to take another trip to LaGuardia to board? Or your flight from Nigeria dropped you there?
