Hello guys.

Good evening!

My wife is pregnant and we are looking to give birth in the US. Please does anyone have information on hospitals and obgyn one can use in Oklahoma?

We have our visas, which we got before she got pregnant.

We have the usual contacts for Herman Memorial in texas but my brother lives in Oklahoma and so accommodation will be free.

I'll really appreciate any information and/or help which you guys can provide.

An expectant father.

OKLAHOMA, not a popular birthing destination here..
what you could do is google obygys in the zipcode u intend to birth..then pencil down on a couple....find out the hospitals/places they practse......call/email them to find out their fees, and if they are willing to accept your wife and then take it from there. having a visa already makes it so much easier...

hope you have used the visa previously...would make things somewhat easier during renewal

quality response. Thanks … but the appliance is a mini hand sealer that’s rated- 30Watts, 110V in Dc however the machine is 100Wh but 230V in AC. My problem is inverting this 230V in AC to 230DC. I don’t really care about the warranty, I just want it to do it’s work, considering I’ll be using it only during the day

i think you are confusing terms, or the manufacturer wrote nonsense.....no household device will be using 110v dc.
either it has an inbuilt adapter or its 110v ac. send a picture of the device nameplate showing this info you claim

The option i go for is Cash, this asks how would you like to collect the PTA ?

Please note even if you select cash, as of May 2022 when i applied, UBA gives $500 cash and then load the remaining $3,500 on a prepaid dollar card which you can use to withdraw the remaining $3,500 in atms abroad (assuming you applied for $4,000)

Banks are having low forex with many people waiting on the list so it would take time, find someone to ASSIST you so you get yours on time.

Omo, everything require assitance for this country..... so after registering and filling my profile on the cbn trade website, i just sit and wait, how/when will i know if my application is succesful.

the ASSIST u mentioned, is it at cbn or local bank level?

Every one will fill the form and pay visa fees separately, also pay for biometrics and self upload documents separately. Just ensure each person answers YES, where it asks if your spouse and/or dependent will be travelling with you and mention this as well in a cover or invite letter. Choose biometric appointment for everyone on the same day...you can also choose appointment times that aren't far apart if you're lucky


Thanks, so while booking for mine, i was able to get priority visa, but when i finished and attempted to book same for my spouse, it was no longer available. does anybody know if the priority option will become available again this wk?.

also, anybody has an idea of the current processing times for normal visa applications?

Please is it possible for a brother who has stayed in USA for over 20years to invite his sister or brother or mother or a single member of his family in Nigeria to come over to USA?

Becos I know someone who has stayed in USA for over 20years and another person has stayed in USA for over 30 years yet these two people don't remember to even invite their only brother and sister to come to USA at least for visiting.

Or is it that it's not possible to invite a family member over to USA?

Please I need a good person to help me explain this things so that I can really understand what's wrong.

I really want to know the steps taken to invite a person in Nigeria over to USA if it's really possible.

Thank you

duration of stay of invitee isnt of much weight...the major determining factor is the invited persons demomnstration of strong ties to their home country....american doesnt want anybody coming to their country, who wudnt want to go back at the end of their visit grin grin
so if you have strong ties, i even prefer going the tourist route, booking hotel etc....

Hello everyone, Please I urgently need some advice. My friend is 3 months pregnant and plans to give birth in the U.S. Is she required to inform the visa officer about her intention to give birth? or she can just apply for a regular U.S tourist visa and then, go there to deliver her baby. Someone told us that giving birth on a tourist visa is risky because it may affect her future applications. Kindly advise us on the best/safest route to take.



if you dont need the answer urgently, you/your friend can scroll back 10 pages, the answer you seek has been treated severally
