This should help for question 1. IMO you should fill MEDIF and still have the fit to fly.

Mamaiyanu:
Hello guys,

Please I need your opinion on something.

1. I'm gonna be travelling at 35weeks plus 2 days. I've read conflicting information on this thread about flying with Emirates. Is 35weeks +1 say equal to 36weeks ? Do I need to fill the medif form to fly at 35w+2days? Or is my doctors fit to fly sufficient?

2. For those that used Dr Xydas/HNWMC, do I need to do labs here or are they covered in the fee paid? As much as possible I don't want to incur additional cost in the US on labs.

Thanks a mill for your response.

My dear nairalanders,
I applied for my first us visa in 2014 to have my first child. Denied.
Applied to have my second child this year in March (posted the transcript earlier). Denied again

So I decided to apply again for the visa. I took time to fill my ds-160. In the space where they asked have you been denied a us visa before. I said Yes, and explained several reasons to contradict why I thought I was denied. In the space for employment, I also described what I do in my company with plenty story .

Lagos dates were not looking favourable so I decided to pick Abuja.

On top visa only God knows how much I have spent. Visa fee twice, flight ticket to Abuja, hotel in Abuja, taxi to move around. It is well.

My interview was scheduled for 7:30 am this morning. I'm sure my burden of proof was more than Phemas own sef.

There were 3 ladies and a guy doing interviews. The three ladies were more thorough, asking plenty questions and requesting for documents. The guy on the other hand was sharp sharp. Denying people like water in less than a minute. I was just praying to God that I should not go to the guy. Alas it was my turn and I was asked to go to him. I just braced myself and said babe let's do this.

Vo: pass me your passport please
Me: hands it over

Vo: How are you doing today?
Me: Very well thank you


Also take charge of the interview. If he asks a question, give him more details than what was asked. Don't just stand there giving one liners and waiting for the questions to be asked. Their default predisposition is to reject you, so you need to give them a reason to give you the visa by showing you know what you are saying.

All the best to future applicants!

Congratulations!

hands them over, looked at the bank statement for a long while. Asked some questions about certain outflows and then passed the white paper.

I am grateful to all the gurus on this platform, cos before I eventually decided to do it myself, agents were saying the fact that i just finished masters might be used against me (probably that i want to go find a job in the US) and were suggesting all sorts of lies to tell. I give God all glory sha.
