my hubby's second us visa wasn't used(we weren't married then) He didn't av d time to travel. And he did drop box and was given a visa.
1. Yes u can renew it before it expires. (That's what my hubby usually do.. More like a habit)
2. From my above comment, u can see it's not a crime not to use ur visa.

...just wondering why black on black killings don't attract this sort of protest...black life matters only when killed by white?




justwise:


...just wondering why black on black killings don't attract this sort of protest...black life matters only when killed by white?

Everyone knows that the blacks who commit these heinous crimes are held accountable by the system. They are never given a free pass on any level whatsoever. How do you think America became the only country in the world to incaserate close to 2.3million human beings mostly people of color through decades of a failed drug war? Even though statistics show that whites use drugs at the same rate or even more than black folks. Now that the drug epidemic amongst whites has reached an alarming proportion politicians are no longer for mass incaseration but rehabilitation and treatment.
People protest police killings because they took and oath to serve and protect. The criminals are not under any such obligations. Anytime the instrument of state is perceived to be used to subjugate or oppress a minority then we have a problem. I will admit that the media has successfully ingrained certain stereotypes in all of us...
** A Muslim or someone with a Muslim sounding name shoots up a mall and we immediately think -terrorists
***Mexicans are illegals
*** Blacks are considered criminals
*** A white man who shoots up a school full of little kids or a church full of blacks is labeled mentally unstable.
The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses. Malcolm X

For others... U can actually pay your epidural before u r discharged. They will come up to u and collect it and give u ur receipt.

If it's an emergency... U can drive to oakbend and pay

Thanks Firstty for the response. Interestingly while there I requested to make payment for the epidural (i had read ur post) and the nurses got someone from accounts/admin who said I can't pay there, no one would take cash from me.

Is there a specific person I can ask for at the hospital to be able to make the payment. Thanks

Do you mean doctor fee only or is your 2.5k for doctor and hospital?

If it's for both, that's a long shot!!

Try to do a search from the parts 1 and 2 of the thread you'll find hospitals that others have used..

As in u paid oakbend?? Pls throw more light cos I read they don't accept pre registration !!

Had someone make the deposit with the Dr office to cover, part of the total cost (hospital,Dr etc) then got a letter from the dr office on oakbend letterhead that I had made deposit towards the total medical cost. Note that they didnt even ask me any questions abt hospital or dr at Poe.

how did u pay? What account did u use? Or have u used oakbend before?
Elaborate

Moo u have to find a way in the midst of dollar scarcity. Find someone that needs Nair and will give u dollars and meet in the middle. Cheaper than black market if u lucky

Hi
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by Enyinne(f): 8:54am On Dec 30, 2015
I gave birth there exactly 2months ago. For Birth certificate, it comes in within 5days but request from the person filling the form that I need to speak to their madam or her number so u can follow up with her.that's what I did.
For zero balance, call them in their line, and request for it immediately after dischage,it always ready 2weeks after delivery.
Their bills range from 7 to 9k dollars. Normal delivery is like 7k and around 9k for c-section. All depends on d doctors fee and epidural / pediatrician
It all varies so enquire and choose wisely.

jacklenst:
Hello! Everyone in d house.
I need to make an enquiry from the forum:
1. Has anyone recently used West Houston Med Centre?
2. How fast do they prepare birth certificate, and prepare zero balance letter?
3. How is their bill like?
Thanks for anticipated response.

[quote author=kemmytino post=41475788][/quote]
you mentioned a doctor off the top of your head? so what correspondence did you give? cos the rules clearly state that you should have contacted a doctor who is ready to accept medical responsibility. Hospital correspondence only shows their fees and policy. You are the one giving summarized stories (maybe phony too). To come here asking for Atl doctors when that has been flogged and beaten to death and even buried in the other parts just seems phony. I am very sure that your "correspondence" clearly states that they are exclusive of physician fees.
VO advised you to book a doctor's appointment? #miraculousvisathings LWKMD!!!!
Plus you have been a registered nairalander since 2007 with interests in other random albeit male-seeming kinda posts - building and recruitment. and since 2007, all of a sudden you post on dec 29th, 2015 asking about Atl docs. maybe i have watched too much fiction sha.
