@mamacajah....how u dey and hope the twins are kicking? I bought my United airline ticket way back in April at 390k .u can imagine and United airline like someone just posted is still in that range...So am just thinking if they are gonna reduce their prices after summer rush,the difference mught not really be that much,so I would love to advice anyone travelling very soon to buy tickets on time.

@neff.....Thank God you and the babies are okay . The devil has lost the battle . I pray you recover so fast IJN.

@mahmacajah....I flew United to San Francisco California..my poe was texas and I had to collect my luggage at texas for screening cos that's my port of entry but it was checked in immediately after screening without any charge to do next flight..I feel this should be obtainable in all Poe except some poe do otherwise . hope this help.

Hello good people of this wonderful thread . I will like to share my POE experience as I've learnt a lot and will like to also give back.
I already gat my b1/b2 visa last year June with my hubby and 2 kids . I learnt from this thread that I need to write a letter of intent to the embassy of my new plans though I had already used my visa for vacation purpose last yr dec/Jan this yr .I was replied with d normal response they give .I travelled end of July to california with ma hubby and 2 kids with United air . When we gat to houston POE. .d cbp officer asked for our purpose of visit,we said vacation and to have our baby there . He then asked how much we have and how we intend paying..told him we have any 10k dollars and also our Mastercard . asked how long we will be staying...told him hubby and kids 3wks and ill be staying close to 3 maths . asked us to declare it cos we thought it's 10k dollars and above we need to declare . He stamped hubby and kids 6mths and sent me for secondary inspection . on getting dere I met anoda preggie and one of d officer whispered anoda one but did as if I didn't hear...e no kuku concern me...I was just communing with baba God but I was confident cos u had all my documents to back up any question . was asked for doctors appointment letter,correspondence and how I'll pay . told den and d officer advised I should not take any medical aid and I shld pay all bills and to keep all ma receipts cos I'll need it when next am entering d USA AND he stamped me 6mths.on getting to where I'll declare my cash and foodstuff na so I meet anoda woman . immediately she saw me she did how far gone r u?I was like no be to see cash and food,which one is how far as gone again . She started asking series of questions dt I've been asked by d previous officers..my husband just dey vex but i asked him to cool down . After abt 10 mins,she asked of d foodstuffs we have in our bags but didn't open our bags and didn't even ask to see d cash . We left and unfortunately missed our next flight to sanfrancsisco but we're put on the next one to california . Now in california ...it pays to be honest about ur intentions,do not lie,pray and God will grant us prayers

Congrats @Akoo7 on d delivery of ur Lil one . may God keep and bless d baby.
@Timikejay,congrats on the smooth entry...u will know that is God at work . look at d first question d officer asked u immediately u told him ur intentions . Thank God for God's intervention . really happy for ya family....wishing ur wife a safe delivery and also wishing other mamas a smooth entry and safe delivery.

congrats to leaky tribe.
@mamacajah....d response u av is different from d one they sent to me...I gat d normal response they used to send and dt was just 2 -3 weeks ago . So am sure they are responding on one on one basis now . well d most important thing Is dt they replied you.

mamacajah: @tumzee, I am planning to write to the embassy. Had a draft ready, hubby still wants to rephrase it before sending..hmm.. where are you planning to deliver?

@mamacajah....planning to deliver at San Francisco,california.

I've been a silent follower of this great thread for the past 3 months now . will like to appreciate everybody dt has shared their experiences and testimonies cos I've learnt a lot from here. I knew I was addicted to this great thread cos there is no day I don't log on to read and digest every comments .But I checked and checked last week but couldn't see anything on d site,i was worried and kept checking,felt a part of me was incomplete.Thank God it's back but not too happy cos I'm just on page 170 also still had abt some pages to d 220 pages then cos I didn't want to skip any page . I gat my b1/be visa last yr with my 2 kids and hubby and actually used It last yr/dis yr Jan,but planning to use it 4 birthing purpose dis YR . From wat I learnt from dis great trend ,I wrote to the embassy and they av responded to me...will be using United at d end of July . just a word of advice...be truthful always and you will always be happy u did.
