Have used an agent before for the purpose of family vacation but then no document was checked wat I notice is DAT the question that always end the interview is if have been out of the country before but hubby have been to France 3 tymes, China once, nd UK 4 tymes but hve never been out of the country before
Did your agent give you a copy of the ds-160 form that he probably filled for you? Are you sure there are no contradictory information? Many pple without travel history got their visa including me.

I pray thee to take a moment and forget about document checking. Documents are Rarely checked.
Most times the form filling is the key to success. (Who read that back in d daygrin?)
So ask yourself, did the agent fill in any untrue Or inconsistent detail/s? Sometimes. Lack of travel history can be held against u but people with zero travel history get eg @cinakin. Take for egs now, will osinbajo's daughter be denied visa because she hasn't travelled before? Course not cos she has it going good back home.
So if u can analyse ALL your applications objectively, u stand a chance.Your husband has shown he isn't a flight risk. I believe u should Look at your forms again...
Btw part payment don't make any difference.
God's grace

Photocopies either coloured or black and white will suffice from my previous experience.

I returned to Nigeria today having left the lovely city of Houston exactly 2 weeks and 2 days after the birth of our lil' man. By day 14, we already had all receipts and zero balance plus Passport and ETC. Everything.

I will share our experience in a subsequent post but for now, here's the overall cost we incurred for an unscheduled CS:

Hospital: 3500
Doctor: 2630
Lab work during Antenal: 260
Anesthesia: 950
Brown and Associates: 115.05
NICS: 555.70

Mummy and LO are bidding their time in US while I prepare the home in anticipation of their return.

I'm going to queue for fuel for the generator. (I missed doing this while I was away, *rme*) When I return from this perilous task, I'll share details of our adventure

It depends on your condition, eg pregnancy induced hypertension. Aspirin is a blood thinner and I used it up until I got to the US @ about 32 weeks and the Drs here stopped the prescription. It's used to prevent blood clotting in some instances or cases of previous miscarriage.

Baby aspirin is nt harmful to ur baby. Most people with tendency of blood clot disorder or high proteinuria in urine can take it. It's knw to control pre-eclampsia if ur at risk for it. Normally started at 7weeks or by 12weeks till 35 to 36 weeks. It can also be started early to prevent miscarriage if ur at risk.
I took it thru my pregnancy and all went well for me.

Who prescribed it for you?
It is good for high blood pressure in preg up to 32 weeks. Infact, it prevents pre-eclampsia in preg.
I had bp at 17 weeks, my doc placed me on baby aspirin till 32 weeks, my bp was so normal till I delivered it works like magic.
BUT! It must be prescribed.

It is the normal aspirin that is VERY BAD in pregnancy! Don't even touch it

If you're going to have surgery u need to be off it for minimum of 10 days before surgery, its a blood thinner and prevents clot formation, which they won't want in surgery
