God bless u sister ucystan for that well documented transcript. Gold standard mehn! If I get the authority to mark transcript na 100% r gee u. grin
No be all this salary : bla
What do u do : I told him

Actually, the time question was to observe the demeanour of your husband. He had asked him some questions eg the salary question where he faltered a bit. Then after answering the other questions, he wanted to compare his body language with an unplanned question and the ones he clearly must have expected. Psych 101.
Congrats
Yes oo... a whole LadyG don give me 100% yaaayy! Thanks dear... me I just know it was God's favor

Good day people,

I have gone through some of the pages in this thread and the previous one.Please I would appreciate some experienced counsels.

My wife is currently in Dallas to give birth. She is 36 weeks. We couldn't secure PTA before she travelled. Now, we will love to use the form A to pay for her bills, but all the hospitals we've spoken to do not accept wire transfer (form A) for payment. Please I would really appreciate any advise on a Dallas hospital that will do form A. This is especially urgent as she is really advanced at 36 wks

Meanwhile, someone gave us an OB package for JPS hospital in Dallas which requires us to processs temporary Tarrant county ID for her. Has anyone used this before? Does this translate to using the US govt funding? I really want to be sure so we dont get to speak long grammer in the future.

Thanks for the good work here. It really is commendable.



My statement was based off the bolded sections of the Ops comments above. Of course I know you can get a state ID based on your duration of stay but this was an ID obtainable for a specific reason. My comments were based on that context . It's always a good idea to get the background story.

Your international passport is your ID in a foreign country together with your drivers license if accepted.
So, for anyone to want to acquire a local ID he or she must be looking to enjoy a benefit. Let's not try to be cute with the facts . The question remains ; Why do you need the ID when your passport is available?
Not necessarily true, I had a state ID card (state of ohio). I couldn't be carrying my international passport around. So I was informed that it was ok for me to make an ID (just that it had d duration of my stay in my passport to expire) i used it to fly, enter grey hound, clubs and any other place an ID was required, Even d library. So it's not necessarily bcus u re looking to enjoy a benefit. It actually came in very handy and more convenient, not having to carry my green passport anywhere I went.

Anyways that ĺwas 2years ago and they might have gotten better.Can I fly wt them again?..hmmm yes,if its way cheaper than others..shows how much i like awuf..You'll be fine dear,ur LO sef will keep u busy on your return leg so you won't miss the inflight entertainment..Go wt a tab/novel to keep u occupied when going.
Someone else asked abt quatar..now that's a 5* airline,everything on point,cld even say services better than emirates..But them no like our green pali o..they usually have long ganster stop-overs,they allow ppl wt blue/red pali to enter their country andbook them into a hotel but not us.We just have to stay in the airport throughout (even if its a 9hr stopover like mine was).
