Ok, here is me being polite. Don't reapply for the next 5years, except you can ascertain you have not been banned.

I mentioned using an immigration lawyer, I think they are the ones that can get your banned or not banned status from the embassy. If you haven't been banned, you can go ahead to build a defence. If you have been banned, I heard Canada is pretty nice in summer and Brazil also gives citizenship

Just wondering what you do for a living.

I'm really just trying to help when I say this.

You can't convince a VO that your initial decision to stay and have a baby was unplanned and still prove you have ties back home.

If you have a job for example, how do you suddenly just decide you're not going back to work you'd rather stay for months in the US to have a baby? It doesn't seem logical. I'm not sure there's anyway you can truly explain how you could just decide based on a 6 month stamp in that everything in Nigeria could wait and you would just stay to have a baby in the US. Please consider this before you tell a VO again that it wasn't planned.

Hello house, great work you all are doing here I must say. Please I have an issue that requires a quick intervention. I applied for a b1/b2 visa to attend a 2weeks event and come back, and was given a b1 1 month visa (annotation) 2014 after been denied in 2013 for the same event (its yearly), got to ATL Poe and I was stamped in for 6 months as against the 2weeks I initially put in my application to stay since I was pregnant as at then (6months and VO was not aware) and was stamped in for 6months, I decided to stay back and have the baby there after the said event. I paid all my bills in full got my zero balances to show. Got back to Nig, waited for a year and now reapplied last week hoping to renew my visa b1/b2 visit visa. Getting to the interview the VO asked couple of questions which to the best of my knowledge I answered truthfully (no current pregnancy related questions, although I am currently pregnant and plan to birth the baby there) after the interview I was denied 214b. Now I urgently want to reapply because I want to birth my second baby there. How do I go about it please? Also my child has been really sick, sheduled an appointment with his pediatrician successfully. Should I just reapply saying I am taking him for medical reason or just apply saying I want to go birth my second baby? (Hoping the change in travel intent does not disqualify me) Or just reapply and stick to the same travel intent I was just denied of? Please house help as I don't want to be denied again please and also don't want to appear so desperate to the VO (considering I was just denied last week). Thank you house. Quick response please because I am currently 30weeks gone (with a small bump tho)

When I mentioned this in the office today, most people were of the opinion that Havana has lost its salts. One babe said she ran away from admission there after she was misdiagnosed. It's like they are losing grip... am jst so sad! it's an avoidable death. And she's a regular visitor to US o! Now all we can say is if only...

biollar1:

True at loosing it's salts. They changed mgt I think. When Dr Okeke G C E(co owner) was still in charge...it was so diff. and smooth, I only know they still have a very good consultant cardiologist till date. It is well.

My SIL also over stayed. Hers was for almost one year. Her baby had serious health issues so she had a valid reason for staying. She paid all her bills but she has been denied twice this year even after changing location. She had her interview in Lagos, was denied. Switched to Abj, was also denied. I hope you get this sorted out.
@asikiye thanks for your input but my case is different I never overstayed my POE stamp, guess my offence was birthing a baby on a B1 1month annotated issued visa from here (Nigeria)

Austine2020:
I think the main cause of the refusal might be that she birthed in the US with a wrong visa,because B1 doesn't cover medical,But B2 did. So she can come clean by applying for the right visa and tell the whole truth about her previous travel with all her burden of proof and hope that the VO will be fair to her,with the help of God she will be fine since she paid all her bills on the former one.

chloe7:
momsomyy, I think you should take note of what TheLeakyTribe said in the last post, also you are 30 weeks gone already if you want to reapply do that in time as I hear now that appointment dates are now like 1 month ahead of when you book, I don't know how true that is, just stick to the advice you have gotten from here, gather yourself and be prepared for whichever outcome, I pray you find favour.

Vcole, Modath, Firsttymum, where my peeps @!!! Only 2 years and we become Brazilians (All I know about Brazil is secrets of the sands, Raquel and Ruth).

But seriously, how does one get to rectify this kind of problem? Is it by going over and over again till you get a fair hearing? Lot's of people are in this category.

TheLeakyTribe:
Thank you so much everyone. Wish I could mention all your names.

We will all celebrate the births of your babies as you have celebrated mine today. Praises to God.

Hello, thanks for taking out your time to reply me. Ok so the thing is I was not faced with much questions or difficulties during my interview last week because all the VO asked was why do I want to go to the same state I went to previously and I said for Vacation, He now asked me duration of my last visit I said 6month which was the truth and he went ahead to ask what I was doing there for that long and I answered birth my child and immediately I brought out my zero balance to show him, he collected it went through it and started typing and handed me the section 214b refusal paper (that refusal is based on having no strong ties to ones country from what I have read) so now the issue is back to your no 1) suggestion I have a family I am to stay with and they have sent a letter which I used in filling the last week application and they are still willing for me to stay with them also, so I was thinking I should still maintain that contact so I don't contradict every part of my application, also to your no 3) I am married traditionally now with my baby dad but yet to do court n white (after this delivery we would do that) but while filling the form that got me denied last week I filled single because I didn't know if they accepted our traditional marriage or not. So now I want to state that I am married traditionally and take pictures with me to show. Will that be good enough ties? Or you advice I don't take my child with me? He's just 1yr+ and very glued to me

360degree:
Good morning lovely mothers n to be. I need your counsel on my situation. My family got a B1/B2 visa in Jan 2015 and travel to US in Dec 2015 and returned Jan 2016. Our visa was issued for holiday and we were not asked any question about pregnancy although we had no intention of any such at that time. Now I am pregnant and wish to give birth in the US in Oct this year. With this my situation, do I need to write notification or change of intent or what is my chance if I go without this letter and declare my purpose at POE? Please if I need to write this letter can someone help me with the format. I have searched the entire the entire thread n could not find one. I would also need to know if I would require to support the letter with any document? Also is the embassy going to respond to my letter to indicate approval? Please I need your advice on some of these issues. God bless you all.

There is common law marriage
There is civil union.

These are big big english for being traditional marriage and cohabitation. Some other countries use De facto relationship. Use those options rather than married or single for now
