I am interested in your hire puchase and can drop 200k initial deposit and then negotiate the subsequent payments but all payments would be made within a year and a half this depends on the total cost of the hire purchase, it could be earlier. my name is Matthew 08036799705.please lets talk.
Matoni:
Partnership terms are open for negotiation but i'm considering any of these:

Rent to own; you will need to pay a percentage of the car value in advance. (let me know what you can drop)

Percentage, we split profit 50-50, or 75-25 or 60-40 or whatever you suggest that can work for both of us.

drop your offer below and i'll contact you if it pays me.

Please all , let's sheath our swords and rest. I don't like the direction this talk is going.

on travelling early or late several opinions have been given based on personal experience. This digression is not good for this thread especially with preggy mom's and dads.

One love all. let's hear more successful stories on POE and delivery.

however, u can easily get a nany where ever u travel to..aint u getting anyone else to travel with u i.e mum or mum in law....before d nany disapears....so many of them do!!!

wooww..this i favour

congrats on ur visa..

iphiechuks:
Greetings everyone,

I have been following this trend and it has help me alot so i feel that i should share my visa experience with the house.

I applied first on 2nd Dec and I was denied cos I told the VO that I was pregnant and she asked if I intend to have my baby in the US, I told her that I don't know yet. she then advice me to go and think about it, if I decide I should return with maternity travel plan eg, Doc correspondences, proof of where to stay and statement and she also gave me one medical sheet like dat.

Today at 7:30am I was booked for an interview in Abuja and it goes like this:

VO: Good morning
We: Good morning
VO: Where in the US are you both going to?
We: Houston, Texas
VO: Purpose?
Husband: for Vacationing and for my wife to have our baby
VO: How long do you both intend to stay:
Husband: Wife will stay for 7 weeks while I will take her there, make sure she settles and return when she is due to have our baby. I intend staying for 2wks for each visit.
VO: What is the cost of delivery?
Husband: A little over 9,000 Dollar (I quickly gave her our budget sheet and Doc correspondence and added that, "This is our budget sheet and Doc correspondence" she said Okay, that's good.
VO: (Smiled and now facing me) So Ma'am, where will you be staying?
Me: Intown suite Katty extended stay, 3000 highway 6 south Houston, Texas (and smiled back)
VO: Where do you work?
Husband: We are both Bankers at bla bla bla
VO: (with a smile) Okay then, return on Thursday for your passport and have a safe delivery.
We: Thanks and have a nice day.
Our interview did not last for 5mins

I used Dr Funsho's email and attached the budget sheet in front, that was the only document I showed her. She did not even ask for any in the first place.

hmm chicago is pretty expensive, but the doctor gave me 3referrees of naijas who could sublet from the residence...u could also ask him though.

on the other hand, u could check out accomodation in skokie reasonable distance from his clinic

Yankee01:


okay then. I have sent him a mail. Thanks for the info. it's really useful.

One more thing pls @skelemba, Do u have idea of any accommodation around the place and the price (cheap one.. smiley)?
Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by skelemba: 3:07pm On Feb 20, 2015
its better to have d price of d bigger room...ad use it for ur cost estimate when u r doing ur budget...or better till just book for d bigger room to avoid long explanation with the VO, and u can cancel after ward...

my advise is not to even bring up that u are all travelling at different time except he asks, so booking d bigger room gives a clearer picture that u know what u are doing

cheers

tbaby2015:


thanks. however, the room we booked only accomodates one person. We intend to explain that we would change to a bigger room once they come around. I hope that's okay?

morning all,

Please i'd like a clarificatio on this. I'm applying with my fa,ily but going alone first, about 4 weeks before they arrive. We've booked online for reservation but booked just for me since the hotel would not allow for more than a month hotel reservation. Our interview is soon and i'm wondering should we get hotel reservation for my hubby and kids, dated one month after mine or we go with mine alone? Please advice, thanks.

Hello Fruitlicious,

Had a similar experience, however, u will need to lodge in a complaint on their portal, alternatively call their call center, that u made an error and u will need to unlock ur receipt to enable u rectify ur error and reapply.

if they insist on u buying another receipt or making another payment, u might need to be persistent...and pray too

u can still use ur own ds 160, but make sure ur are using ur details dis time no ur husbands

support@ustraveldocs.com...send an email to them or ope a case online

Hello Dunwun,
documents ur husband is required to take to embassy are:
statement of account, landed property, reference letter from his bank
reference letter from place of work, take a copy of his id card or call card too
payslip
employment/confirmation letter.
another document that may back his case if its peculiar
and of course the necessary documents, he can also write a letter intending his financial responibility for ur trip if he is d one sponsoring

and yes as many bank accounts as u have dat has all ur money in it..., fixed deposit certificate

there is no time lapse between submitig ds160 and called for interview, however, 30 days after u open a ds160 u must complete it and den apply for a visa, it is when u are applying for a visa that u have the liberty to pick ur interview date
dunwun:
Hello house,

I have a few questions, thanks in advance for your responses.

What docs are required from hubby at the embassy (by the VO) if the plan is to travel alone for the purpose of childbirth? I and hubby have never been to the US.

What's the time lapse between submitting the online DS160 form and being called for an interview?

Can I use 2 different banks SOA?

HMM THANKS FOR THIS ENLIGHTMENT DRAFRICAN

It sure is something one must know, information is key, knowledge is power.

most times when they know that one i realy learned and knows his/her right they wont push. they prey on the vulnerable.



drafrican:
An immigration lawyer is an expert on immigrant and emigrant related cases .
Secondly you had the right to ask for a lawyer to explain your rights to you at the POE before deportation,which is provided for in every country,They won't refuse or they would have breached protocol.
Thirdly you had the right to ask that your interview be recorded for legal purposes.
Your fit to fly covers a journey of a maximum of 24 hours and not longer so you could have asked for another certification as your fit to fly is invalid and because you are pregnant you are at risk of thromboembolism.
You could also have said you are feeling reduced fetal movement at which point you can't be deported because a doctor must certify your baby was not in danger, reduced fetal movement at any gestational age over 34 weeks will qualify you for an emergency c/section or at least a 3 day monitoring of you and your baby in a hospital by which time esparati would have replied.
This is not to blame you but to enlighten everyone about their rights.
Before she jails you, you have the right to a lawyer and it was a threat cos everything was an allegation no proof.
But with our right being abused everyday in Nigeria we don't know what our rights are.

Lol funny so ur idea of peculairty is OKADA. I m not misleading anybody. The same thing applies both in wales n anypart of d UK. Pple walk. Trekking isn't a bad thing if u can cycle it cycle it. N d population of wales has nothing to do wit it. London is one of d highhly populated city in d world. Dey dnt ve okada. So pls if u r talkin about pecularity or innovative means okada isn't an option it is even embarrassing. Haba Lagos is a mega city cmon dnt u knw wots good for it. If u cnt walk it wait for a bus if u cnt wait for a bus. Dem move to somewhere where u r can get wot u want. My friend was affected in d banking crisis in abuja. After he lost his job he moved his family out of abj to lag sold his car n paid for a rent y cuz d cost of livin in abj is high. Things wud not alwaz work out for u if u cnt cope move around. There rsmaller states in nigeria. So pls dnt ever say lagos shud ve its own peculiar transport system n okada is d option. Pls what is okada.sef.

After going thru this I laff at what I read. I cnt believe nigerians r actually dis backward. N d truth still remains dat d citizens r 80percent of d problem not d govt. What is okada? U all shud b ashamed of urselves dat u r getting all worked up over okada been ban. So wot move on life continues. N if I were fashola, after dey r totally eradicated frm d state, let dem get rid of does danfo guys too and sanitize d transportation system. Cmon. We need to step up our game. Itsnt gona b easy nothing gud comes easy but if its d sacrifise we ve to make to get our beloved country to where it is. Why not.I ve lived in wales n obviously okada isn't an option. So many pple dnt ve cars n even those dat do dnt drive it. Do u knw dat there r places dat buses only come thru ur street every 30-45mins and d walk to d trains station or bus station is bout 20mins. Wot do dey do? Dey walk. Ask anybody u walk in d uk. Where to change either ur bus or train is 10mins away dey walk. In d freezin cold u walk. My hood was hilly. I wud walk n rest n walk. Did I blame d uk govt dat in nig we ve okada?. U even c old pple wit their walking stick walking. N here we r crying okada okada. For d xcuse of no alternative plsvent u seen movies. Ve u seen rush hour in train/bus station where u wait wit crowd n d train comes n u ve no more space sef. So wots d fuse its everywhere. N dey is no okada. So nigerians stop being spoilt brats. N d truth is if we lagosians jst set a standard for ourselves n dnt patronise dem dey wud look for something else to do. D truth is dey shudnt b doin dat cuz its no job atall.life isn't easy, but okada isn't d only pple dat r affaected, hw about pple who lost their jobs in banking, telecoms, did dey resort to stealing. So get over dey wud b robbers if dey wud let dem b n let God judge dem. D govt is trying. Its a step at a time but some things shudnt b permited and one of it is okada is not a means of transportation. Thank u
