Dear Vo,

I applied for Dropbox Renewal on 9th October with my boss, his passport been returned successfully with visa and mine is yet to come, have written mails the embassy and no one is ready to give reason why my passport is held this long and we have a conference to attend this Nov.

However my last visa was b1/b2 which I have used once Dec 2015, I used same visa for birthing Aug 2016 notifying both the Lagos and Abuja my intent for birthing. Declared at point of entry and was checked and advised to pay all bills as still was mentioned in both letters from Lagos and Abuja. I came back with all my zero balance receipt.

My passport has long overdue with no notification of delay.

Kindly advice the next step to follow.

Thanks.

Beautiful ladies.. Is high time I share my experience and how heaven saw me through. I am nursing a 10 month baby now, @ 6 month just after exclusive breastfeeding I was 8 weeks prego,was feeling funny went for scan was told another baby on the way, didn't recall how that happened cos I was yet to see my mensis....I came home married my phone all day in search if I should continue breastfeeding or stop.My research have me positive answer and we continued. 10wks gone I had a terrible cramp one morning as I was quickly rushed to hospital. Emergency bla bla I was sent to scan room to diagnose what the issue was, Result came Madam you have leaked ectopic and require emergency surgery.
I have read about ectopic omg I asked why me. Someone has to sign for me., hubby wasn't around I told the doctors I have to call for him cos I wouldn't want any other person sign for me. See wahala you will die oo this one that one I ignored and managed my pain. My hubby arrived same night went to chief surgeon telling them he don't want a surgery any alternative to that, the same big hospital said no sir., your wife has fwe hours to live u are here looking for alternative. He insisted surgery should be the last option what other option have u tried, no option kindly pay 250k deposit for surgery so they can commence. He made a transfer and refused signing till the next morning. My sister some hospital na wah all they wanted was money and couldn't help the young man with option B if available.

All these was happening close to midnight still in pain. My hubby didn't sleep that night he was looking for all alternative for me not to undergo surgery remember one tube will be cut off as the surgeon said.He adviced I should call my doctor abroad and see her suggestion I opted and begged him to sign I don't want to die.mbong

Finally grace found me he got to a bro that told him not to sign but pls bring your wife to Ph we have doctors that can treat her without surgery my Wife just has same experience. 7am flight we left the hospital to Ph and she got to the hospital I was asked to do scan over and over to ascertain the results. The doctor asked me some questions and I was responding well and no fainting at all. He told my hubby he will try some method before surgery to see if I am bleeding so bad. He performed a 4 quadrant tap to check if i was bleeding so bad since my last scan also confirmed I had leaked ectopic., my dear no blood on his syringe and oh my heart was gladden. The pain was nothing to explain.
I was admitted and methotretex was prescribed for trail to help flush off the blood if no result then surgery .
Immediately I married my Google and that would have been first alternative since there was no fainting at all.

Behold within 8 hours I was bleeding and was monitored closely and within 9 days of addmitance i was dischrged clean.
I have gone to back for check up and everything was clean.
I wake up this morning again thanking my God sent that saved me from that surgery who knows what the outcome might be. It was a high risk though but mercy of God was upon us. Join me thanking God I am 3 cycles gone and is positive. I don port with my pikin make oyibo take care of us this time. I pray mercy will find us all in Jesus name AMEN.

Hello house , I need some clarification here.. I walked into FBN was was given 18% for 42 days and as well 18% for 365. The percentage didn't make much difference.
Wich is better is it short term investment or long term.?
Assuming I do short period and reinvest over and over.

Assuming I invest 7m how much is the interest for both.

The tenure thing is confusing and bankers won't help at all. She just said I should take a decision.

Thanks all.

[quote author=Hotstepper post=31991132]It doesn't matter. My family friend was already preggy when she applied but she did online application and there was nowhere they asked if she's preggy or not so she didn't indicate. She wasn't called for interview either and was given 4 yrs visa.

Now to the info everyone is itching to hear this is not MHIS Cuz Canadian system is different since our health care is free. Lemme explain.

So for her,

1. Dr fee was 750
2. Hospital was 2500 per day and she stayed just a day nd it's CS Ooo
3. Anesthesia..640

Total is 3890 CAD

The baby paid nothing because immediately he was born, he's Canadian so his health card which was given immediately at the hospital made it free. All the specialist that came to check him like eye, hearing etc was free. So this is the part that in US that adds up cuz baby have to pay.

@ Hotstepper please what's the name of the hospital could help a sister.

firsttymum:

Well...there are several school of thought on this. Did u get it for delivery? If yes, no need to send the letter. If you got it for tourism and did not declare to be pregnant coz u weren't then , then you need to send a letter. To this, if you got it for tourism but did not use it for that purpose and will be using it for the first time for birthing, then you should send "Change of intent" letter. If on the other hand, you used it for tourism already and now want to use it for birthing, you can send "Notification of intent" letter to be on the safe side. BUT.....if you got it for tourism, was pregnant and you were asked if you were pregnant but you denied.....that's a different ball-game entirely. Can't help out on that

My 2cents....others can contribute too if i left something out.

@ Damidamsel don't worry u got your 2 cent send me your PayPal account.

Meanwhile the Visa I got is a business visa I wasn't married the last time I did a Dropbox last year. So no queries about that. I have used the visa severally for business visit so i am just thinking if i should email. Since i want to use it for delivery August, hope they won't cancel my visa I no wan story please.

Don't me angry with my plenty questions abeg.

damidamsel:
OMG! OMG!! OMG!!! Arrived USA today. So here's my story.... Got B1/B2 visa in Dec, travelled 4 vacation in Dec. Returned 2 Naija n sent Notification of intent to embassy to which i got a general response. Began gathering all my burden of proof. Had 2 change hosp from NJ to Philly coz of cost and proximity, so i began hosp n doctor search all over again. Got necessary correspondences finally. Then PTA search began....opened acct at Stanchart n Stanbic, awaited call from stanbic.
Here's d testimony......Did not get any call from Stanbic so i went wt hubby on d day of my trip. Got there ard 9am n d lady said no funds!!! Hubby said let's go buy from aboki n i said Heaven No!!! Not spending xtra 500k just to get $4k, God is ABLE!! So we sat awaiting a miracle....we began hearing of a Mr Femi who helps (n i rbred i had read abt him on here) n i started believing God to bring him in. Long story short, God brought him, we approached him n in abt an hour, we got our funds. Jump to trip....Delta did not ask 4 FTF,got placed on fast track n sky priority all tru my movement at MMA (God's favor). Booked wheelchair but stated use at ATL only. 12 hrs later, got to ATL POE....wheeled straight to CBP.
CBP: Morning, why are u in d US.
ME: Childbirth.
CBP: How long do you intend staying?
ME: 2.5months.
CBP: How much do you have?
ME: $4k cash n $5.5k in chase n extra funds in Naija acct. (Cash wsnt counted, statements of acct not requested)
CBP: How far gone are u?
ME: 34wks.
CBP: So abt 6wks to go?
ME: Yes......Takes fingerprint n pics, stamps in for 6months. NO SECONDARY INSPECTION, NO BAGGAGE CHECK. Straight to next gate for connecting flight. Indeed it was God all d way.
Thanks to all the info i got on here, i was an avid reader and though no doc was requested, my prep wt d info i got on here gave me much confidence.

Hello dear I already have a visa like last year so I need to send notification to embassy intend for delivery kindly advice pls.
