Hahahaha @ almost same cast. cheesy

I'm glad if not anything, that it's clear nobody can beat anybody on this thread. We all come here to learn. Some know more than others, and that's fine. No need to attack them. Glad while this lasted. The lesson has been taught. Back to basics cheesy

Biko who has inside gist on ticket sales? We need to save this money.
@ Justwise, long time no read. grin

Madam, since it appears you can crack a joke but not assimilate one I took it upon myself to do some explaining. I am not complaining, neither am I worried.
The morals to you is: 1. don't crack a joke if you can't take one. 2. you can make a point without cracking a dry joke out of it, or better still, don't respond if you don't want a response in return.

Yes sweetie. Oya bye na...it's not by force to want me to engage u. In fact you are so right. Hope this settles it. Good.

Come'on?! Aren't you the one who's lost the humour? The joke is that the Dr doesn't determine who gets sent back. He was only advising me out of concern, it's no news that POE's are tougher than they used to be; 2 random patients being sent back at this point in time isn't strange nor a fault of his.

Aunty you no see where I write "nearing airline "?
Don't worry about explaining again. Na simple concern wey you raise. Moral of the story, don't let what other folks say about getting sent back move you. You are different from those 2 cases, be prepared and have faith. You go pass the border safe and sound. Finish.

34-35 is fine i think. my toddler is already 2 so no hope for baby ticket.

since this is not your first baby u dont need to go so early na. also the dr i am thinking of using gave me a bill of $1900 from 37 weeks. so what is the point of going so early.

have you decided on ticket? doing NY to ATL is still cheaper than going to ATL straight.

$1900 in Atl? Ahh? Please which Dr? And if you don't mind, what hospital? My plan was to use the people I used for my previous birth affiliated with Northside. North Atlanta Obgyn but the charge $2200.
I haven't decided on ticket oh. Still looking. Airport is a problem for me cause I live in Abuja and our airport is closing next week. So I'm gonna have to make it out to Lagos. What airline do you plan to take from NY? And you know they might charge you for 2nd suitcase as per domestic. We have to calculate all this and the stress and see if it's worth saving that amount sha

My people how una de.
i saw air moroc flight to NY in july for 355k on cheap ticket this morning. even though i'm atl bound i thought since new york ticket is cheaper i should consider it then do NY to ATL.
so i went to air moroc office in VI, gave them the same date and they said ticket is 375k i was still thinking about it when i said let me even confirm their pregnant flyer policy. their website says up to 8 months which should be like before 36 weeks only for the woman there to tell me not more that 32 weeks. can you imagine what will i go and be doing form 32 weeks with toddler? and who will someone even believe self. attendant at local office or policy on their website. what do you guys think?

I'm Atl bound as well. And see me planning to travel at 32 weeks with my toddler b4 turns two so ticket is cheap lol. How many weeks do you reckon is fine? Maybe I should do 34 weeks? 35? When do you plan to travel?

Hi all. Please i had my baby in the U.S in 2014,paid all my bills and got my receipts. I intend going again in April. I applied via dropbox for visa renewal in Jan and I'm yet to get a response from them.
Has anyone experienced this kind of delay with dropbox? Thanks in advance.

I did when I applied for renewal last year but they eventually called me for an interview. It could be that they're doing their own checks. They call if something is unclear. Maybe try emailing them.

You too like wahala. You want to start another argument. We will soon arrest two of you.
Akuko. On top internet? Wahala was awoken yesterday oh grin

The worse that can happen na banning, it won't even stop me from reading and getting the info I want. Some folks probably have all their families on here hence threatening another person and think you can actually do it. Gangster things. Maybe there's now a new way of slapping people through phone/computer screens that Freshface knows.
Who do I know on here? No one. Who knows me? No one. So folks need to quit taking mere written posts to heart. Especially when you ain't feeding me. On that note, imma resume to regular program. Lol

You can forget getting a B1/B2 visa.

Here's why - you will have to include your spouse on your DS160 application. The VO will be able to determine that he is currently in the US illegally. Why should the VO believe that you and your kids will abide by the terms of the visa?

Thanks to you and your husband, the next innocent applicant has to jump through extra hoops to convince the consulate of "ties" in order to obtain a visa. If we talk now, you people will be the first to waffle on about ITK. Good luck on getting any other US visa.

You are condescending!!! Stick it! Stick it! *in market woman Freshface's voice*

Lmao. Abeg una no go kill person on this thread.

You must ve interpreted 'doctor' to mean 'CBP official'. They mean different things. Just joking too. grin

Oooh really? I thought Drs now stand at borders checking passports. tongue

Nope I got you loud and clear. U probably lost the humour. Dr wey write two fit to fly certificates for his 2 patients and them send them back. My joke is the Certificate carry jazz once una carry the paper reach airline or him himself want una to come back and deliver with him. It was a joke.

Uncle Twood, STICK IT! As much as u have enthroned yourself as the moral police of this thread, it's appreciated sometimes but other times u r just freaking annoying!

You can put ur point across without being condescending! Because u live and work in America doesn't automatically mean u are better than all of us. I am certain u are also an immigrant, so stop being more American than the originals sef! I am sure u got there for want of a better life! That is what parents here are trying to secure for the children!

I am sure if u had ur way, u would stop all of us from coming over all together! Unfortunately, there's absolutely nothing YOU can do about it! Until such a time it becomes illegal, we will continue at it legally and truthfully to the best of our abilities!

So once again, stick it!

He didn't come across as condescending though. All he did was explain to her thoroughly. She's the one that took it south by talking about him paying 20k for childbirth.
I don't think you comprehended what you read, and ran to write you're sure he wants to stop people. Do you know him? How did you arrive at that conclusion
The problem with a lot of people on this thread is, you tend to get defensive and salty when you think your "dumbness" or lack of knowledge is being scrutinised. And that's inferiority complex. Someone cannot share intelligent information again without being accused of "talking down" on someone. We don't all know it all but some people definitely know more than others, respect that. It took time and energy to educate themselves about certain issues. I had one accuse my post 3 or 4 pages back, but I ignored him because that's the typical Nigerian behaviour. Accuse of doing ITK.
Well if you don't want to be "condencended" on, make an effort to educate yourself or be humble enough to want to learn!
