Haba...madam...cut yourself some slack now! This is a general rule, if u didn't know about it before, get enlightened! Stop sounding overtly bossy in answering peoples questions abeg.
I should get enlightened to ancient human resource restrictionshuh

Except it's a general rule for Nigerian companies. But the company I work for does not operate under those rules. In fact they try to please female employees in all way necessary because they believe in equal opportunity/no discrimination. Male employees also get paternity leave. So it's for both sexes.

Hello house, pls I'm in a fix now and I need some clarification. my hubby and I got a visa for vacation in February, we really wanted to go for vacation then but due to the dollar scarcity, we shifted it. mid March, I was confirmed pregnant. mind u, I wasn't asked if I was pregnant during our interview and neither did I know I was pregnant den. now, I'm 3 months gone.
The issue now is my hubby and I planned going for the vacation next month (may) den I can go for childbirth later but I was told today at my office that I can't take my annual and maternity leave together in a year.
So now, I don't know what to do. can I go for childbirth later with a letter of intent since I wasn't asked if pregnant then? what are the options available for me now as I'm really confused. gurus in the house, over to u.
So how did your office know you're pregnant? You told HR? Which kain stupid rule is that? So if you take the annual leave, they'll chain you in the office to have your baby there? Except you went telling people your U.S plans in the office.
Anyway you're better take casual leave, go for vacation. Come back and plan your birthing trip.

lol @shawbabe post. Haba get stuck in the air. its not that bad na.

@miracle twine, I flew them last summer to London and it was ok. You actually get what you paid for. No inflight entertainment whatsoever,so jst make sure you have your tab to keep you company.

As for food, its okay. You will be given the normal Naija food we are all used to and pls note they go directly to Gatwick.

The landing and take off is also ok.

Not as bad as I thought it will be. I can fly them again because its very cheap and they keep to time. Well, don't know if they have changed lately. This was August 2016.

Hope this helps.
Lol...I don't know why, but I always advise people to stay away from Nigerian airlines when flying international...at least till we get our act together. We have a way of messing passengers up without remorse. And when you complain, they say abi you want cheap flight.

Hahahaaa! I told you either the government or TWoods will come for you. grin

I always find his sarcasm hilarious! Or maybe it's the fact that it drives yall sensitive folks crazy lol.

On the real though Cutieaidomo, it's amazing how quick you wanna start depending on the system already. But I understand you probably just needed clarification. If she has medical treatment in the US without you paying for it, it's as bad as having your child here and resorting to Medicaid, etc.

Good day all....please I have 2 questions and I will be needing clarification.
1. Pls can my LO who is an American citizen access free healthcare in the states? If yes, how do we go about it pls? She's meant to undergo a medical procedure which is not an emergency and since I will be traveling with her in August to have baby no 2,I'm considering doing it over there. Pls I hope there are no negative effects to this. Anyone with such experience can pls throw more light.

2.Has anyone put his/her LOs in a crèche or playgroup while on this birthing journey? From what age can they be in such schools and is it free for American citizens?


3. Any elpaso mums traveling btw late July and August should pls holla @ me,we could hook up for accommodation and other logistics.

Thanks all.
Talk about being ready to start milking the benefits lol cheesy

Well to answer both your questions, as far as I know, the answer to your questions are NO! You are liable for anything your child uses here in the US. Medicals and daycare. US aint Canada that free health starts from birth. So my advice is to factor in the expense for your toddler too on this trip. Becoz they'll come for you if you have the government pay for her treatment. Well either the government or TWoods comes for you grin

Seriously though, you can't use free healthcare for her. There's no free healthcare in the U.S. Someone is paying somewhere, you (insurance, works, etc) or the government.

Hello my good people....please help a sister. I have been following this thread for a while now and I intend applying for the visa by feeling the form myself but someone just said the interview date I will be given will be so far, that those agents can get a nearer date. I want to go through medical.....pls I need advice asap.
Are you sleeping with the form? grin


On a more serious note, you better stay away from agents when it comes to you and your visa applications. They have a way of messing up one's credibility. You are better off doing everything YOURSELF.

Its amazing how some pple just turn themselves to keyboard warriors. How can a grown adult come to a faceless forum and say 'I don't understand how an intelligent person that can use phone and internet will be going to travel agent to book ticket??'. That is rather insulting. And as you said, una get money to be dashing them, next time pls just jump and pass.
Yea a grown adult said it, now what? And also I refused to jump and pass, again I ask, now what?
Speaking of keyyboard warriors, who died and told you you are in a good position to address my post? Aren't you a keyboard warrior too? Shawbabe makes a post and reminants come outta lurking mode. But when someone else is "rude" (since yall are a buncha sensitive folks), una no fit talk to the person. In fact I'm even making your "grown adult" self important by responding.
Nahhh I won't again.

In the meantime NONE OF YOU HAVE RESPONDED TO THE PEOPLE THAT POSTED ASKING FOR INSIGHT.
Na Shawbabe carry una destiny. Una must think if you come in numbers to quote my posts, then that has some sort of effect on me huh, last I checked NO ONE HERE KNOWS ME OR FEEDS ME. But some of you really need NL folks validation. Lol well not me. Sorry.
